Why does it takes 3 copies of 1/6 to show the same amount as 1copy of 1 / 2

Mathematics

Because 1/2 ≠ 1/6.

We know that 1/6 < 1/2, so we can set up an equation to see how many copies are needed for them to be equal.

(1/6)x = 1/2
[(1/6)x] × 6 = [1/2] × 6
x = 6/2 = 3

This equation shows that 1/6 × 3 = 1/2, therefore we need 3 copies of 1/6 to equal 1 copy of 1/2.

Because 3 times 1/6 is 3/6 which can be simplified to 1/2

The length of a swimming poollane
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

x²+5x - 150 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be y and width be x

If the  length of a swimming pool is 10 more than 2 times the width, then;

y = 2x+10 ...1

Since the Area is 300m²

A = xy

300 = xy .... 2

Substitute 1 into 2

300 = x(2x+10)

300 = 2x²+10x

Rearrange

2x²+10x - 300 = 0

Divide through by 2

x²+5x - 150 = 0

This gives the required quadratic expression

standard automobile license plates in a country display 3 numbers, followed by 2 letters, followed by 2 numbers. how many differ
RoseWind [281]

The system of standard automotive license plates allows for a variety of standard plates is 39917124 ways.

<h3>Define the term permutation?</h3>
  • The number of potential arrangements for a given set is assessed mathematical terms, but this procedure is referred to as permutation.
  • The arrangement's order is essential when using permutations.

For the stated data;

Standard car license plates in a nation typically have 3 digits, 2 letters, and 2 numbers.

There are total 9 digits (0 - 9).

There are total 26 letter (A - Z)

Repetitions of letters and numbers given allowed.

Thus, numbers and the letters ca be arranged as;

1st place = 9 ways.

2nd place = 9 ways.

3nd place = 9 ways.

4th place = 26 ways.

6th place = 26 ways.

7th place = 9 ways.

8th place = 9 ways.

Total ways = 9×9×9×26×26×9×9

Total ways = 39917124

Thus, the system of standard automotive license plates allows for a variety of standard plates is 39917124 ways.
