The answer is:  "  \frac{1}{4} " ;  or, write as:  "0.25" .
___________
Explanation:
__________
Method 1)
__________
\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{4} ;

= \frac{1 * 2 * 3}{2* 3 *4} ;

= \frac{6}{24} ; 

= \frac{6/6}{24/6} ;

= \frac{1}{4} ;  or, write as:  "0.25" .
_________________
Method 2)
_________________
\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{4} ;

= \frac{1 * 2 * 3}{2* 3 *4} ;

→ The "2's" & "3's" in both the numerator & denominator "cancel out" to "1" ;  {since:  "(2÷2=1)" ; and "(3÷3=1" ) ; 

→ And we have:

   
→  \frac{1 * 1 * 1}{1 * 1 * 4} ;

            =  \frac{1}{4} ;  or; write as:  "0.25" .
________________
Method 3)  (similar to "Method 2" above):
_________________
\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{4} ;

= \frac{1 * 2 * 3}{2* 3 *4} ;

→ The "2" in numerator cancels out to "1" ; and the "4" in the denominator cancels to "2" ;  {since:  "(4÷2=2)" ; and since: "(2÷2=1)" ;

→  The "3's" in both the numerator AND denominator "cancel out" to "1" ;                      {since:  "(3÷3=1" ) ; 

→ And we have:

   →  \frac{1 * 1 * 1}{2 * 1 * 2} ;

            =  \frac{1}{4} ;  or; write as:  "0.25" .
_______________
Method 4)
_______________
\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{4} ;

→ Cancel out the "2" in the denominator of "\frac{1}{2}" ; to a "1" ; AND cancel out the "2" in the numerator of "\frac{2}{3} " ; to a "1" ;
       {since: "{2÷2=1}" ;
 
 → Cancel out the "3" in the denominator of "\frac{2}{3} " ; to a "1" ;
AND cancel out the "3" in the numerator of: "\frac{3}{4}" ; to a "1" ;
      {since:  "(3÷3=1}" ;

→ And we have:

   →  \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{4} ; 

              = \frac{1 * 1 * 1}{1 * 1 *4} ; 
           
              =  \frac{1}{4} ;  or; write as:  "0.25" .
________________
Variation:
________________
At the point when we have:
________________

   → \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{4} ; 
________________
We can eliminate the: 

"  \frac{1}{1}  *  \frac{1}{1}  " ;

{since: "  \frac{1}{1} = 1 " ; 

{and since:  "  \frac{1}{1}  *  \frac{1}{1}  "  =  1 * 1 = 1 ; 

and since: "1", multiplied by any value, equals that exact same value; 
_____________
THAT IS:
_____________
    → \frac{1}{1}  *  \frac{1}{1}   *  \frac{1}{4}  ;

         =  1  *  1  *  \frac{1}{4} ;

         =  (1 * 1)  *  \frac{1}{4} ;

         =    1 *   \frac{1}{4}  ;
  
         =    \frac{1}{4} ;  or, write as:  "0.25" .
_____________
Method 5)   (similar to "Method 4" above):
____________________
\frac{1}{2}*\frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{4}  ;

  → Cancel out the "2" in the numerator of "\frac{2}{3}" ; to a " 1 " ; 
AND cancel out the "4" in the denominator of "\frac{3}{4}"; to a "2" ;
       {since: "{4÷2=2}" ; and since: "{2÷2=1}" ; 

  → Cancel out the "3" in the denominator of "\frac{2}{3} " ; to a "1" ;
AND cancel out the "3" in the numerator of: "\frac{3}{4}" ; to a "1" ;
      {since:  "(3÷3=1}" ;

→ And we have:
_____________
   →  \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{1} * \frac{1}{2} ; 

              = \frac{1 * 1 * 1}{2 * 1  *2} ; 

                      =  \frac{1}{4} ; or, write as:  "0.25" .

Free fall reaches 216km per hour. What is rate in meters per second.? How many meters fall during 20 seconds free fall?
lakkis [162]

Given,

Rate of free fall = 216 km/h

Solution,

km/h to m/s is converted as follows :

216\ \dfrac{km}{h}=216\times \dfrac{1000\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\=60\ m/s

So, the rate of fall is 60 m/s.

If t = 20 s

Assume, initial velocity = 0

It will move under the action of gravity.

Using equation of motion,

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 20^2\\\\h=2000\ m

Hence, this is all for the solution.

5x3 + 9x² - 13x - 2<br>As x approaches --, f(x) approaches<br>As x approaches +o, f(x) approaches​
Solnce55 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y) → (-∞, -∞), (+∞, +∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is of odd degree with a positive leading coefficient. It will have a generally upward slope (/). That is, the sign of f(x) will match the sign of x for large-magnitude values of x:

  x → -∞, f(x) → -∞

  x → ∞, f(x) → ∞
