Is 4/6 greater than 9/12

2 answers:

6 0

You start by cross multiplying.
4 x 12 = 48
Therefore, the value of 4/6 is equal to 48.
You do the same on the other side.
6 x 9 = 54
Therefore, the value of 9/12 is equal to 54.

No. 9/12 is greater than 4/6.

4/6 is less than 9/12. If you were to use common denominators, you could use 12, 4/6 times 2 is 8/12 and 8/12 is smaller than 9/12

Answer:

1) The factors of $x^2-3x+2=0$ are $\mathbf{(x-1)(x-2)=0}$

Option C is correct.

3) The factors of $x^2+2x-8=0$ are $\mathbf{(x-2)(x+4)=0}$

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Factor : $x^2-3x+2=0$

For factoring we need to break the middle term, such that there sum is equal to middle term of expression and product is equal to product of first and last term.

The middle term : -3x

We can break them as (-2x)( -x)

Solving:

$x^2-3x+2=0\\x^2-2x-x+2=0\\x(x-2)-1(x-2)=0\\(x-1)(x-2)=0$

So, factors of $x^2-3x+2=0$ are $\mathbf{(x-1)(x-2)=0}$

Option C is correct.

3) Factor: $x^2+2x-8=0$

For factoring we need to break the middle term, such that there sum is equal to middle term of expression and product is equal to product of first and last term.

The middle term : 2x

We can break them as (4x)( -2x)

Solving

$x^2+2x-8=0\\x^2+4x-2x-8=0\\x(x+4)-2(x+4)=0\\(x-2)(x+4)=0$

So, factors of $x^2+2x-8=0$ are $\mathbf{(x-2)(x+4)=0}$

Option B is correct.

Your answer would be 12/25 tons. If you set up a proportion 2/5 X
   -------- = -------
      5/6   1
Solve your proportion.

How to simplify this

algol [13]

To simplify this, you would have to turn b^-2 into a positive exponent.
To do this, we have to flip b^-2, which would get rid of the negate from the exponent: -2

3a^4 b^-2 c^3 / b^-2

Then we get the answer:

3a^4 c^3
------------
b^-2

I have a picture to clarify!
I hope this helped, let me know if you don't understand! ^.^
