Ben claims that 12 is a factor of 24.how can you check whether he is correct?

1 answer:

8 0

Divide the 24 by Ben's 12 .

If his 12 is a factor, then the division will come out even,
and the answer will be a whole number.

A). 6 x 4 = 24

B). 5 x 9 = 45

C). 3 x 8 = 24

D). 6 x 9 = 54

Use De Morgan's laws to write negations for the statement. Sam is an orange belt and Kate is a red belt.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

C. Same is not an orange belt and Kate is not a red belt.

Step-by-step explanation:

A negation is an operation that "takes a statement and changes it to a statement whose true or false value is opposite". For example, if I were to say 2 + 2 = 4, the negation would be that 2 + 2 ≠ 4.

So, if Sam is an orange belt and Kate is a red belt, the negation is C. Same is not an orange belt and Kate is not a red belt.

Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle is 5 units more than the width. The area of the rectangle is 36 units. What is the width, in units, of

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the width of the rectangle

The length of the rectangle is 5 unit more than the width. This is written as:

Length = y + 5

Area = 36

Recall:

Area of rectangle = length x width

36 = (y + 5) x y

36 = y^2 + 5y

Rearrange the expression

y^2 + 5y — 36 = 0

To solve this problem by factorization, multiply the first term (i.e y^2) and last term ( i.e — 36) together. This gives — 36y^2

Next, find two factors of —36y^2 such that when we add them together it will result to the second term (5y). These factors are —4y and 9y. Now we substitute —4y and 9y in place of 5y in the equation. This is illustrated below:

y^2 + 5y — 36 = 0

y^2 —4y + 9y — 36 = 0

We factorize as follows:

y(y — 4) + 9(y —4) = 0

(y + 9) (y — 4) =0

y + 9 = 0 or y — 4 = 0

y = —9 or y = 4

Since the measurement can not be negative, therefore y (i.e the width) is 4

A right rectangular pyramid is sliced vertically (down) at the red line by a plane not passing through the vertex of the pyramid

crimeas [40]

The cross-section of a right rectangular pyramid will be shaped similar to the base, that is, a rectangle. Hence, 4th option is the right choice.

If the peak of the rectangular pyramid is directly above the center of the base, it creates a perpendicular to the base, indicating the height of the pyramid. This type of rectangular pyramid is known as the right rectangular pyramid.

A rectangle is a quadrilateral, that is a closed figure with 4 line segments, with all four interior angles at 90°.

When we slice a right rectangular pyramid vertically down at the red line by a plane, not passing through the vertex, of the pyramid will be a dilated image of its base.

A dilated image is an enlarged or diminished image of the preimage, similar with all angles.

Thus, the cross-section of a right rectangular pyramid will be shaped similar to the base, that is, a rectangle. Hence, 4th option is the right choice.
