Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve using algebra: let x be the unknown number.

so 11/3 ÷ x = 11.

Solving:

11/3 = 11x.

x = 11/3 ÷11 = 1/3

You can also check the answer by going:

11/3 ÷ 1/3 = 11/3 x 3/1 = 33/3 = 11 (using fraction rules for multiplying and dividing ie. to divide by a fraction we multiple by it's reciprocal, and to multiply by a fraction, we multiple the numerators and the denominators).

Prove that if xy > 0, then either x > 0 and y > 0 or x < 0 and y < 0

Rufina [12.5K]

The rule of product states that:

$(+) \cdot (+) = (+)$
$(+) \cdot (-) = (-)$
$(-) \cdot (+) = (-)$
$(-) \cdot (-) = (+)$

So, a product is positive if and only if both factors have the same sign, and is negative if only if the factors have opposite sign.

Phoenix [80]

Let x be a random variable representing the length of a text messaging conversation, then
P(x > 3) = 1 - P(x < 3) = 1 - P(z < (3 - 2)/0.5) = 1 - P(z < 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275

Four penguins would satisfy a polar bear's appetite for 12 hours. A polar bear has a

julsineya [31]

Answer:

0.04%

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 1000 penguins per square miles, the total number of penguins in a 10 square miles will be 1000*10 = 10,000 penguins/10square miles

Since a polar bear has a territory of 10 square miles, and can only eat four penguins within the 10square miles;

Percentage of penguins that the polar bear can eat will be expressed as;

number of penguin eaten per 10square miles/total number of penguin per 10square miles * 100

Percentage of penguins that the polar bear can eat = 4/10,000 * 100%

Percentage of penguins that the polar bear can eat = 4/100%

Hence, the percentage of penguins that the polar bear can eat in the 10 square miles is 0.04%
