Each piece of lumber is 4 1/6 feet long.


How do we know that? well if you take the numbers you have  and divide you can find the answer, so.

16\frac{2}{3} ÷ 4 = 4\frac{1}{6}

Therefore the answer is 4 1/6 (:

nora has 3/4 as many books as victor. let v represent the number of books victor has. create an expression to represent the numb
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

N = \frac{3}{4} * v

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the value that we are provided is a fraction that is tied to the number of books that Victor has, we would simply need to multiply this fraction by the total number of books that Victor has. This value is represented by the variable v while the total number of books that Nora has is represented by the variable N. Therefore, the expression would be the following

N = \frac{3}{4} * v

The roots of 2x^2-3x=4 are a and b. Find the simplest quadratic equation which has roots 1/a and 1/b
Tju [1.3M]
Find the roots

solve
we use hmm, completing the suare
2(x²-1.5x)=4
divide both sides by 2
x²-1.5x=2
take 1/2 of linear coeiftn and square it
-1.5/2=-0.75, (-0.75)²=0.5625
add that to both sides
x²-1.5x+0.5625=2+0.5625
factor perfect squaer trinomial
(x-0.75)²=2.5625
square root both sides, remember to take positive and negative square roots
x-0.75=+/-√2.5625
add 0.75 to both sides
x=0.75+/-√2.5625

the roots are x=0.75+√2.5625 and x=0.75-√2.5625

1/a and 1/b
1/(0.75+√2.5625) and 1/(0.75-√2.5625)

if the roots of a quadratic equation are r1 and r2 then it factors to
(x-r1)(x-r2)
so then we can factor our equation to be
(x-\frac{1}{0.75+\sqrt{2.5625}})(x-\frac{1}{0.75-\sqrt{2.5625}})

if we were to try and expand it, we would get
x²+0.75x-0.5
that's the simpliest equation with roots 1/a and 1/b where a and b are he roots of 2x²-3x=4


x²+0.75x-0.5 is answer
