Answer:

To compute 1.92 divided by 6 you can multiply 1.92 by 100, compute the division and finally, divide the result by 100. So, 1.92*100 = 192, which can be represented as 18 tenths and 12 ones. This representation is convenient because both 18 and 12 are multiples of 6. Then, dividing 18 tenths by 6 we get 3 tenths (30), and dividing 12 ones by 6 we get 2 ones (2). The addition of the results of these partial divisions is 30 + 2 = 32, which is the result of 192/6. To get 1.92/6 we need to divide 32 by 100, which is 0.32, and that's the result of 1.92/6.

The scale on a map is 1 in: 55 miles. What is the distance on the map between two cities that are 99 miles apart?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

1.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the distance on the map

$\frac{1}{55}$ = $\frac{x}{99\\}$

Cross multiply and solve for x

55x = 99

x = 1.8

So, the distance on the map is 1.8 inches

Multiply the number of hours by how fast the bus is going.

6*36= 216

The bus traveled 216 miles.

I hope this helps!

Simplify the rational expression. state any restrictions on the variable. n^4-11n^2+30/n^4-7n^2+10

Andrej [43]

For this case we have the following expression:
 $\frac{n ^ 4-11n ^ 2 + 30}{ n ^ 4-7n ^ 2 + 10} 

$
 We are going to make the following change of variables:
 $x = n ^ 2
$
Rewriting the expression we have:
 $\frac{(x ^ 2-11x + 30)}{(x ^ 2-7x + 10)} 

$
Factoring the expression we have:
 $\frac{(x-5) (x-6)}{(x-5) (x-6)} 
$
Canceling similar terms we have:
 $\frac{x-6}{x-2} 
$
Returning the change we have:
 $\frac{n ^ 2-6}{n ^ 2-2} 

$
 The resctrictions of the function are those that make the denominator equal to zero.
We have then:
 $n ^ 2-2 = 0

n = +/- \sqrt{2} 
$
 Answer:
The simplified expression is:
 $\frac{n ^ 2-6}{n ^ 2-2}$
The restrictions are:
 $n = \sqrt{2} 
$
$n = - \sqrt{2}$
