Find equivalent fractions with common denominator and order least to greatest 1/6 1/3 3/4

1 answer:

5 0

To get the common denominator, we need to get the multiples of each denominator.

multiples of 6 : 6, 12, 18
multiples of 3 : 3, 6, 9, 12
multiples of 4 : 4, 8, 12

The common multiple 12. So, we need to multiply each fraction by the corresponding number that will result to a product of 12 in the denominator. Whatever number is multiplied to the denominator must also be the number multiplied to the numerator.

1/6 * 2/2 = 2/12
1/3 * 4/4 = 4/12
3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12

Since the denominator is already common, we use the numerator to arrange it in order from least to greatest. 2 is lesser than 4 and 4 is less than 9.

So, order from least to greatest ⇒ 1/6 , 1/3, and 3/4

A farmer from Whidbey Island: A man claims his whalebone can detect water. You design an experiment using a set of 4 cans, 3 emp

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The value is $E(x) = 1.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of cans is n = 4

The number of can that are empty is N = 3

The number of can filled with water is k = 1

The number number of sets of cans is w = 5

Generally probability of detecting the correct can is mathematically represented as

$p = \frac{k}{n}$

=> $p = \frac{1}{4}$

=> $p = 0.25$

Generally probability of not detecting the correct can is mathematically represented as

$q = 1- p$

$q = 1- 0.25$

$q = 0.75$

Generally the number of cans expected of the farmer to correctly identify by chance is mathematically represented as

$E(x) = w * p$

=> $E(x) = 5 * 0.75$

=> $E(x) = 1.25$

Which of the expressions below can be factored using the difference of squares method? A. 25x2 - 64y2 B. 17x2 + 23y2 C. 17x2 - 2

denis-greek [22]

Difference of squares method is a method that is used to evaluate the difference between two perfect squares.

For example, given an algebraic expression in the form:
$x^2-y^2$
can be factored as follows:
$(x-y)(x+y)$

From the given expressions, the only expression containing two perfect squares with the minus sign in the middle is the expression in option A.
i.e. $25x^2-64y^2$
which can be factored as follows:
$(5x-8y)(5x+8y)$ .
