Because if you draw a three pies and cut all of them into 8 pieces and shade 6 in one, 5 in the other, and 7 into the last one, you will see that there is a bigger piece shaded in the one with 6 shaded than the pie with 5 shaded. And less shaded than the one with 7 shaded. Hope I helped :)

Tan weighs 146 pounds. Minh weighs 15 pounds more than Tan. How much does Minh weigh?
dimaraw [331]

Given parameters:

Weight of Tan  = 146pounds

Unknown:

Weight of Minh = ?

Following this problem step wisely, we can derive a solvable algebraic equation;

  Let the weight of Minh  = M

In the second sentence, we see that Minh weighs 15pounds more than Tan;

    So;

              M  = 15 + Weight of Tan

Since we already know the weight of Tan,

  Weight of Minh  = 15 + 146  = 161pounds

We clearly see that Minh's weight will be 161 pounds.

It is given that Three basketball teams measured the height of each player on their team.

Team  Mean height (cm) MAD (cm)

Bulldogs  165                          6.9

Panthers  177                          7.1

Warriors  176                        4.8

I need help with this
andre [41]

Answer:

  f(x)=\dfrac{(x+3)(x-1)^2}{(x+4)(x+3)(x-2)^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Each vertical asymptote corresponds to a zero in the denominator. When the function does not change sign from one side of the asymptote to the other, the factor has even degree. The vertical asymptote at x=-4 corresponds to a denominator factor of (x+4). The one at x=2 corresponds to a denominator factor of (x-2)², because the function does not change sign there.

__

Each zero corresponds to a numerator factor that is zero at that point. Again, if the sign doesn't change either side of that zero, then the factor has even multiplicity. The zero at x=1 corresponds to a numerator factor of (x-1)².

__

Each "hole" in the function corresponds to numerator and denominator factors that are equal and both zero at that point. The hole at x=-3 corresponds to numerator and denominator factors of (x-3).

__

Taken altogether, these factors give us the function ...

  \boxed{f(x)=\dfrac{(x+3)(x-1)^2}{(x+4)(x+3)(x-2)^2}}
