See,
1/3 of 12
= 1/3 * 12
= 1/1 * 4
=4
and
1/4 of 12
= 1/4 * 12
= 1/1 * 3
= 3
so 1/3 of 12 is the greater

Comparing 1/4 and 1/3 Draw a picture of these 2 fractions. You would see that 1/3 is bigger that 1/4.
Final Answer: 1/3 of 12
Hope I helped!

According to the Rational Root Theorem, what are all the potential rational roots of f(x) = 15x11 – 6x8 + x3 – 4x + 3?

scoundrel [369]

we have

$f(x) = 15x^{11} -6x^{8} + x^{3} - 4x + 3$

we know that

The Rational Root Theorem states that when a root 'x' is written as a fraction in lowest terms

$x=\frac{p}{q}$

p is an integer factor of the constant term, and q is an integer factor of the coefficient of the first monomial.

in this problem

the constant term is equal to $3$

and the first monomial is equal to $15x^{11}$ -----> coefficient is $15$

possible values of p are $1, and\ 3$

possible values of q are $1, 3, 5, and\ 15$

therefore

the answer is

The all potential rational roots of f(x) are

(+/-) $\frac{1}{15}$ ,(+/-) $\frac{1}{5}$ ,(+/-) $\frac{1}{3}$ ,(+/-) $\frac{3}{5}$ ,(+/-) $1$ ,(+/-) $3$

George has $3 in his saving account. He then adds $4 per day to the account. Let y represent the total amount in the account aft

dusya [7]

Answer:

y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

since we know how much he adds daily, we can put it next to 4, since we don't know how long he is going to save money. next you just add 3 as a checkpoint

3(4x-7)=27 What does x =? Please help asap im timed!!!

Scilla [17]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x ( 4x -7 ) = 27

3 x 4x = 12x

3 x -7 = -21

12x -21 = 27

12x -21 + 21 = 27 + 21

12x = 48

12x/12 = 48/12

x = 4

Plllzzz im new and i neeed help

ella [17]

Answer:

4082

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The composite object

Required

The volume

The object is a mix of a cone and a hemisphere

Such that:

Cone

$r = 10cm$ ---- radius (r = 20/2)

$h = 19cm$

Hemisphere

$r=10cm$

The volume of the cone is:

$V_1 = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

$V_1 = \frac{1}{3}\pi * 10^2 * 19$

$V_1 = \frac{1900}{3}\pi$

The volume of the hemisphere is:

$V_2 = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$

$V_2 = \frac{2}{3}\pi 10^3$

$V_2 = \frac{2000}{3}\pi$

So, the volume of the object is:

$V = V_1 + V_2$

$V = \frac{1900}{3}\pi + \frac{2000}{3}\pi$

$V = \frac{3900}{3}\pi$

$V = 1300\pi$

$V = 1300 * 3.14$

$V = 4082$
