Answer:

Judy's claim to divide 2.4 by 2 is the same as multiplying 2.4 * 0.5 is:

  • <u>Correct</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying a number by 0.5 (whose fractional is 1/2) is the same as dividing this number by 2, this case is very easy to identify by making different examples in which said decimals and integers are used, checking that the result is the same:

EXAMPLES.

1. 12*0.5 = 6

   12/2 = 6

2. 3*0.5 = 1.5

   3/2 = 1.5

3. 5.5*0.5 = 2.75

   5.5/2 = 2.75

As you can see in the previous examples, performing the operation by both methods is correct.

if the volume of the prism is represented by 15x2 + x + 2 and the height is x2, which expression represents B, the area of the b
cricket20 [7]
The volume of a prism is the product of the area of a the base and its height. Given the volume of the prism as 15x2 + x + 2 and the height as x2, the base can be expressed using this expressions. Volume = base x height. By substitution, <span>15x2 + x + 2  = (base) x (x2). Thus the answer is, base = (15x2 + x + 2)/x2 or base = 15 + (1/x) + (2/x2).</span>

What is the sector with a central angle of 185 degrees and a diameter of 6.4 m? Round to the nearest tenth.
mr_godi [17]
The area of a sector is 
     A=\frac{1}{2}r^2\theta =\frac{1}{2}\left(3.2\:m\right)^2\left(185\cdot \frac{\pi }{180}\right)=16.5\:m^2

The answer is 16.5 square meters.

The sum of the angle measures of a polygon with n sides is 18001800. find n.
Contact [7]
Using
(n-2)180 = 18001800
(n-2) = 18001800÷180
n-2 = 100010
n = 100010+2
n= 100012 sides
