If you draw circle pictures for each fraction you would get that 2/3 is bigger!
since 8ths are broken into smaller pieces its less than 3rds. hope it helps!!

°°Let's see -

To find out which fraction is bigger, I like to divide the numerator of a fraction by its denominator. Let's begin!

5 ÷ 8 = 0.625

2 ÷ 3 = 1.5

We now can see that 2/3 is larger than 5/8.

Why, you ask? Well, if you pay close attention to the decimals, you can see 1.5 and 0.625 - And 1.5 is 1 and a half, while 0.625 is smaller than 1.

1.) There are 6 numbers you can roll on a standard dice: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
There are 3 odd and 3 even. Keep in mind that an odd plus an odd will always be even and an even plus an even will always equal an even. Only if you add an odd and an even will you get an odd.

The chances of getting an even sum are much higher which is why you should choose even.

3.) The formula for finding the area of an equilateral triangle is (<span>√3)/4(a^2) where a is just a side length.

Because the perimeter is 12 and each side of an equilateral triangle is equal, we can divide 12 by 3 sides and get each side is 4. Plug in 4 for a.

</span>(√3)/4(4^2) = (√3)/4(16)

Because (√3)/4 = (1 x √3)/4, 
 (√3)/4(16) is equal to (16 x √3)/4

You have to divide (16 x √3) by 4. 16/4 = 4, and you only need to divide once to.  We get 4√3 as the final answer.

Find the value of X in X-X³=17​
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step1: find the interval of roots. Consider -3 and -2

f(-3) = -7

f(-2) = 18 >0

Hence, the root must be on [-3,-2]

Step2:  consider the middle point -2.5

f(-2.5) = 3.875 >0

Then, the root must be on [-3, -2.5]

Step 3: Repeat step 2 by finding the value of f at the middle point -2.75

f(-2.75) = -1.0468

Step 3: Repeat step 2 by finding the value of f at the middle point of the interval [-2.75,-2.5] which is -2.625

f(-2.625) = 1.537 >0

Step4: Repeat step 2 on [-2.75, -2.625]

Repeat step 2 until you got the root which is -2.701
