What is the greatest whole number that is less than ( 5\2)^3 divided by (3\4)^2

1 answer:

5 0

First work out (5/2)³ by cubing both the numerator and denominator to give: 125/8

then work out (3/4)² by squaring both the numerator and denominator to give: 9/16

then divide 125/8 by 9/16
using the stay-change-flip method of division:
the first term stays the same, the divide becomes multiply and the second fraction is flipped upside down.
so:
125/8 x 16/9 =2000/72
then just divide 2000 by 72 to give: 27.78 to 2 d.p
therefore the greatest whole number than 27.78 is 27.

Answer: Yes they could.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two pairs of sides given are proportional: 3/7 : 9/21

The two triangles have the side:side ratio, meaning they are similar

Because they are similar, their hypotenuses could lie along the same line, not guaranteed, but possible.

Find the midpoint of the line segment with the given endpoints. (-3,-7) and (3,0)

Crank

The coordinates of the midpoint:
$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$
x₁,y₁ - the coordinates of one endpoint
x₂,y₂ - the coordinates of the other endpoint

$(-3,-7) \\
x_1=-3 \\ y_1=-7 \\ \\
(3,0) \\
x_2=3 \\ y_2=0 \\ \\
\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}=\frac{-3+3}{2}=\frac{0}{2}=0 \\ \\
\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}=\frac{-7+0}{2}=\frac{-7}{2}=-3.5 \\ \\
\boxed{(0,-3.5)} - \hbox{the midpoint}$

Answer this pls..................

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

so we know:

total of 20 students

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry has a total of 14 students

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

8 students are in physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

3 are in all of them

1 2 3

1) underline the main 3

total of 20 students

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry has a total of 14 students

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

8 students are in physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

2) lets bold the physics students, if you are in physics you have to do chem so that means 8 of the chem students also take physics.

total

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

3) now we bring biology into the "equation"

off the bat we know 3 are definitely in Biology.

so if 4 study ONLY biology we can cross them off our list see the {}

total

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14

physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

biology

1 2 3 

4) so we have a total of 20 students, 3 in all of the classes (underlined), 8 in physics (bolded). If there 14 in chemistry, 4 take ONLY chemistry {}, 8 take chemistry as well (bolded), that leaves two students, so they must belong in biology. lets italicise them.

total

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14

physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

biology

1 2 3  13 14

5) out of our total of 20 students we know 14 of the students classes, so the remaining six must be in biology.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14

physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

biology

1 2 3 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

6) so that was our "diagram" so now lets count how many are in chemistry and biology but NOT physics.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry

-1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8- {9 10 11 12} 13 14

physics

-1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8-

biology

-1 2 3 -13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

there are 14 students in chemistry and 11 in biology, 5 of them are in both classes so 14-5= 9 and 11-5= 6 9+6=16. BUT 8 of those sixteen are also in -physics- so we arent counting them, we put those students in dashes. so lets count the students out of the dashes. so twelve of them are in chemistry and biology but not physics.

7) so how many are in just biology but not the other classes? lets look at the graph.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

chemistry

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {9 10 11 12} 13 14

physics

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

biology

1 2 3 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

in the class of biology students 1 2 3 13 and 14 take other classes that leaves students 15 16 17 18 19 and 20. so 6 students take ONLY biology.

sorry its long but i hope this helps!
