The answer is twelve because to Make the two fractions denominators equal you have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 4 to get the denominators equal which gets you a fraction of 12/16 and if you divide that by 1/16 because that is how long each lap is then you get 16 which is the amount of laps they swam
The number you need is 16 all you have to do is work out the problem and try to understand it they are trying to confuse you don't need an equation.
Hope this help!
Have a Great day mate !!
Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry dont read this
<span>a.{x | x is a real number such that x^2 = 1}
x^2 = 1 => x = +/- 1
=> {-1, 1} <------ answer
b.{x | x is a positive integer less than 12}
1 ≤ x < 12 => {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11} <------ answer
c.{x | x is the square of an integer and x < 100}
x = n^2 < 100 => n^2 - 100 < 0
=> (n - 10) (n + 10) < 0
=> a) n - 10 > 0 and n + 10 < 0 => n > 10 and n < - 10 which is not possible
b) n - 10 < 0 and n + 10 > 0 => n < 10 and n > - 10 => - 10 < n < 10
=> n = { - 9, - 8, - 7, - 6, - 5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
=> x = {0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81} <---- answer
d.{x | x is an integer such that x^2 = 2}
</span>
x = {∅ } because x is √2 which is not an interger but an irrational number
=> Answer: { ∅ }
He square root of 30...........
