A bus on a regular schedule takes 3 1/4 hours to reach its destination. The express bus takes 2 1/2 hours to make the same trip.

The bus on a regular schedule ... 3 1/4 hours = 13/4 hours
the express bus ... 2 1/2 hours = 5/2 hours

If you want to know how much travel time you can save by taking the express bus, you can calculate this using the following step:
3 1/4 - 2 1/2 = 13/4 - 5/2 = 13/4 - 10/4 = 3/4 hour

Result: You can save 3/4 hour of your travel time if you choose the express bus.

Divide x to the 1 half power divided by x to the 2 sevenths power.

$\frac{x^\frac{1}{2} }{x^\frac{2}{7}}$

According to the rule of exponents $\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{(m-n)}$ , i.e. when two terms are in division with same base , we subtract the exponents

So

$\frac{x^\frac{1}{2} }{x^\frac{2}{7}} = x^{(\frac{1}{2}) - (\frac{2}{7})}$

$=x^\frac{3}{14}$

Or

x to the 3 fourteenths power

Sin^2(x/2)=sin^2x <br> Find the value of x

Veronika [31]

$\sin^2\dfrac x2=\sin^2x$
$\dfrac{1-\cos x}2=1-\cos^2x$
$1-\cos x=2-2\cos^2x$
$2\cos^2x-\cos x-1=0$
$(2\cos x+1)(\cos x-1)=0$
$\implies\begin{cases}2\cos x+1=0\\\cos x-1=0\end{cases}$ $\implies\begin{cases}\cos x=-\frac12\\\cos x=1\end{cases}$

The first case occurs in $0\le x$ for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3$ and $x=\dfrac{4\pi}3$ . Extending the domain to account for all real $x$ , we have this happening for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3+2n\pi$ and $\dfrac{4\pi}3+2n\pi$ , where $n\in\mathbb Z$ .

The second case occurs in $0\le x$ when $x=0$ , and extending to all reals we have $x=2n\pi$ for $n\in\mathbb Z$ , i.e. any even multiple of $\pi$ .

Is Zero a Positive Number or a Negative Number or a Neutral Number?

sergeinik [125]

Its a neutral number cause it has no value since its worth nothing at all, when u add it with something the number ur adding it with will be that number instead of 0, (like for ex 2 + 0 = 2) 0 cant be positive since on a number line its not on the right and it cant be negative since its not on the left, so its neutral in the middle.
