Answer: 2 × 2 × 3

Step-by-step explanation: To start off this problem, notice that 12 can be factored into 2 × 6.

Since 2 is a prime number, we move onto the 6. The number 6 is not a prime number and it can be factored into 2 × 3.

Since 2 and 3 are prime numbers, we are finished factoring.

If we bring down the 2 we had from the first factoring step, we can see that the prime factorization of 12 is 2 × 2 × 3.

Answer:

Newtons 2nd law of motion

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton’s second law of motion is closely related to Newton’s first law of motion. It mathematically states the cause and effect relationship between force and changes in motion. Newton’s second law of motion is more quantitative and is used extensively to calculate what happens in situations involving a force. Before we can write down Newton’s second law as a simple equation giving the exact relationship of force, mass, and acceleration, we need to sharpen some ideas that have already been mentioned.

Mhanifa please help! Solve each proportion. Round your answer to the nearest hundreth

Marianna [84]

Answer:

5) m/5 = 7/2 ⇒ m = 5*7/2 ⇒ m = 35/2
6) 7/4 = r/5 ⇒ r = 5*7/4 ⇒ r = 35/4
7) 7/6 = 5/x ⇒ x = 5*6/7 ⇒ x = 30/7
8) 6/5 = 2/(5n) ⇒ 5n*6 = 5*2 ⇒ n = 10/30 ⇒ n = 1/3

It costs Guido $0.20 per minute to forward voicemail messages as texts to his cell phone. He already spent $4 in forwarding mess

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of minutes = x

It costs Guido $0.20 per minute to forward voicemail messages as texts to his cell phone. He already spent $4 in forwarding messages this month.

For Guido

$4 + 0.20x

His mom has spent $2 forwarding messages. It costs her $0.40 per minute so she can call long distance.

For his mum

$2 + 0.40x

Guido's mom said they have to spend the same amount.

Equating both Equations together

$4 + 0.20x = $2 + 0.40x

$4 - $2 = 0.40x - 0.20x

2 = 0.20x

x = 2/0.20

x = 10 minutes

Guido can talk for 10 minutes
