What greater 1/2 or 1/12

Answer: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: To find out what fraction is greater, notice that the fractions that we're comparing in this problem have different denominators.

When fractions have different denominators, they're called unlike fractions.

To compare unlike fractions, we must first get a common denominator. The common denominator of 2 and 12 will be the least common multiple of 2 and 12 which is 12.

To get a 12 in the denominator of 1/2, we multiply the numerator and the denominator by 6 which gives us 6/12.

Notice that 1/12 already has a 12 in the denominator so now we are comparing like fractions since both of them has a 12 in the denominator.

To compare like fractions, we simply look at the numerators. Since 6 is greater than 1, this means that 6/12 is greater than 1/12.

Therefore, 1/2 is greater than 1/12.

69 points!!!!!!!!!!!! ANYONE who can answer this please
Sloan [31]
I would either graph these (which would be a easiest) then you would see a line that goes through (0, -2) on the y-axis
And you can either determine the slope from the graph or pick two points above and find the slope.




or spread them out evenly and fill out the missing pieces.

-8. -4



-4. -3



0



4. -1

6. -0.5

8



12. 1


Fill in the middle values and you can put (6,-0.5) on there

What pattern do u see? This way would be pretty hard.

Find the minimum value of the region formed by the system of equations and functions below.
Naily [24]

Answer:

  A.  -12

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph shows the vertices of the feasible region to be (0, 6), (3, 0) and (0, -3). Of these, the one that minimizes f(x, y) is (0, -3). The minimum value is ...

  f(0, -3) = 3·0 + 4(-3) = -12

_____

<em>Comment on the graph</em>

Here, three regions overlap to form the region where solutions are feasible. By reversing the inequality in each of the constraints, <em>the feasible region shows up on the graph as a white space</em>, making it easier to identify. The corner of the feasible region that minimizes the objective function is the one at the bottom, at (0, -3).
