A fraction is less than 1. Choose a counterexample that will prove this conjecture false​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are trying to prove that not all fractions are less than 1. So we have to choose an example in which the fraction is more than 1.

1) \frac{8}{7}  = 1 \frac{1}{7}

This fraction is greater than 1 hence it can prove that the conjecture is false.

2) ½ is lesser than 1 and will not prove that the conjecture is false.

Write an equation to represent the measures of the angles
marin [14]

Answer:

x = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are complementary so they add up to 90:

x + 18 = 90

x = 90 - 18

x = 72

Research suggest that people are less likely to become repeat offenders if they stay out of the prison system. Why do you think
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Yes prison breeds criminal minds

Step-by-step explanation:

When you send a person to a house filled with just criminals they will just become more criminal minded. If they spend a long time in the prison system too the person will forget how life outside was. It will be like sending a child into the outside world except with a ton of knowledge on how to rob and stuff like that.The american prison system is one of the shadiest systems to be created in my opinion.Its a system built for you to come back over and over.Usually when you get out u have less opportunities for a job.Forget about having a career if you went to prison for literally anything.Your family might disown you or forget you. Its just heartbreaking to see prisoners come out of jail just to have even less opportunity to change their life than before they went. It will get to a point where you need to do crime to survive or live comftorably on the outside world. The american prison system is just built to get revenge on someone and ruin their whole life. I know some European countries have an amazing prison system where they fix you and give you opportunities to become better. Thing is in america we dont want to help the guy that scammed or killed a friend of ours. We just end up hoping their life is miserable and thats our prison system.Its absolutely disgusting.Instead of heavily punishing these people and sending them into the world without help. We should help them and make them better people for our society.Im sorry if this is very disorganized and hard to understand i just wrote what my mind blurted into this keyboard

A geometric series has second term 375 and fifth term 81 . find the sum to infinity of series .
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:  \bold{S_{\infty}=\dfrac{3125}{2}=1562.5}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  a₁,  375,  a₃,   a₄,  81

First, let's find the ratio (r). There are three multiple from 375 to 81.

375r^3=81\\\\r^3=\dfrac{81}{375}\\\\\\r^3=\dfrac{27}{125}\qquad \leftarrow simplied\\\\\\\sqrt[3]{r^3} =\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{27}{125}}\\ \\\\r=\dfrac{3}{5}

Next, let's find a₁

a_1\bigg(\dfrac{3}{5}\bigg)=375\\\\\\a_1=375\bigg(\dfrac{5}{3}\bigg)\\\\\\a_1=125(5)\\\\\\a_1=625

Lastly, Use the Infinite Geometric Sum Formula to find the sum:

S_{\infty}=\dfrac{a_1}{1-r}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{625}{1-\frac{3}{5}}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{625}{\frac{2}{5}}\\\\\\.\quad = \dfrac{625(5)}{2}\\\\\\.\quad = \large\boxed{\dfrac{3125}{2}}
