How does the quotient compare to the dividend when the divisor is less than 1

Mathematics
1 answer:
Scilla [17]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Greater provided the divisor is positive.

It would be more accurate and clearer to say that when dividing a number which is greater than zero by a number between 0 and 1, then the quotient is greater than the dividend.

If the divisor is negative and the dividend is positive, then the quotient is negative (and so less than the dividend).

Circle a has a radius of 3 and circle b has a radius of 11. if the idstance between the center of the circles in 17, find the le
Andrews [41]
Use Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
"a" is one side of the right triangle.
Its length is: radius of larger circle minus radius of smaller circle: (11 - 3 = 8)
The distance between the center of the circles creates the hypotenuse (17)
8² + b² = 17²
       b² = 225
       b = 15

Answer: the length of the common external tangent is 15.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here’s what B has:

Min: 24

Q1: 27

Median: 31

Q3: 33

Max: 34

Although Choice A and B were really close with their five number summaries, out of the two of them, only B had a maximum value of 34, like the one in the box plot shown above.

2k^2-5k-18=0 what is both of the values of k? plz help!!! 15 pts!!!
ddd [48]
To factor quadratic equations of the form ax^2+bx+c=y, you must find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions.

jk=ac and j+k=b

The you replace the single linear term bx with jx and kx. Finally then you factor the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms. In this problem...

2k^2-5k-18=0

2k^2+4k-9k-18=0

2k(k+2)-9(k+2)=0

(2k-9)(k+2)=0

so k=-2 and 9/2

k=(-2, 4.5)

Which inequality represents the sentence? The difference of seven and two tenths and a number is more than twenty nine. 7. 2 - n
Slav-nsk [51]

The inequality which represent, the difference of seven and two tenths and a number is more than twenty-nine, is

7.2-n > 29

<h3>What is the inequality equation?</h3>

Inequality equation is the equation in which the two expressions are compared with greater than, less than or other inequality signs.

Inequality is represented with the greater then(<), less then(>) or with the other inequity signs like less than equal to \leq or greater than equal to \geq.

Tenth is written as the fractional part of the number 10. The value of one tenth is equal to 1/10 or 0.1.

The sentence given for the inequality expression is, that the differences of seven and two tenths, and a number is more than twenty-nine.

The number seven and two tenths can be written as,

7\dfrac{2}{10}

Suppose the unknown number is n.  Now, the differences of seven and two tenths, and this number (<em>n</em>) is more than twenty-nine.  The more than word means, the greater than sign for equation. Thus, it can be expressed as,

7\dfrac{2}{10}-n > 29\\\dfrac{72}{10}-n > 29\\7.2-n > 29

Hence, the inequality which represent, the difference of seven and two tenths and a number is more than twenty-nine, is

7.2-n > 29

A painter starts with a blank 24-inch by 12-inch piece of rice paper. The painter wants to leave a uniform border x inches wide
ddd [48]

Answer:

a. A = x² - 36x + 288

b. If x = 2; A = 220 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>a.</h2>

In this scenario, 'x' represents the width of the border. A "uniform border" means that the border has the same width all around.

The area of the paper that can be painted does not include the border. Since the border is on the original rice paper (not added to it), you subtract 'x' from each side of the rice paper.

The area of a rectangle is A = lw (Area is length times width). <u>Each length and width is reduced by 'x'.</u>

If the original rice paper's area is: 24 X 12, then,

the Area that can be painted is:

A = (24 - x) (12 - x)

A polynomial in standard form means the most expanded version of an expression, ordering the terms (numbers) from greatest to least degree. (The degree of a term is the value of its exponent).

Expand the expression. Multiply the numbers from each bracket in the order FOIL (first, outside, inside last):

A = (24 - x) (12 - x)

= 288 - 24x - 12x + x²        Collect like terms (-24x - 12x = -36x)

= 288 - 36x + x²        Rearrange ordering greatest to least exponent value

= x² - 36x + 288        Standard form polynomial

<h2>b.</h2>

The width of the margin is the same thing as the width of the border. Since 'x' is the width of the border,

x = 2

Using either the expanded or factored equation for area of that can be painted, substitute 'x' for 2.

I will use the factored form.

A = (24 - x) (12 - x)        Substitute x for 2

= (24 - 2) (12 - 2)          Solve inside each bracket first by subtracting

= (22) (10)             Multiply

= 220                 Area that can be painted

Remember to include the units: 220 in²

Therefore if the margin is 2 inches wide, then the area that can be painted in 220 square inches.
