Answer:
D: 2/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Usually when we talk about a point partitioning a segment, we are interested in the ratio of the first segment to the second:
BC : CD = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1
Since this is not an answer choice, we need to "reverse engineer" the answer list to see if we can find an answer that corresponds to a reasonable interpretation of the question.
__
None of the segments is 3 units long, so neither of answer choices A or B makes any sense.
While segment BD is 4 units long, there is no segment that is 1 unit long, so answer choice C makes no sense, either.
There are segments that are 2 units long and a segment that is 4 units long, so if we interpret the question to be "what is the ratio of BC to BD?" then answer choice D is appropriate.
Well, it depends if its positive or negative. 2 positive integers will equal a positive, 2 negatives will equal a negative. A negative and a positive will depend.
When you solve proportions, you have to cross multiply.
9 x
--- = --- Multiply each numerator by the opposite denominator.
11 22
(9)(22) = 11x Then, multiply.
198 = 11x Then, divide.
18 = x
Answer:
The length of the pendulum is 14.13 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of a pendulum is given by the formula, 
, where T is the times period and L is the length of the pendulum.
Now, given that T = 2.4π seconds.
So, from the above equation, we get,
⇒ 
⇒ 
{We have the value of g as 9.81 m/sec²}
⇒ L = 1.44 × 9.81 = 14.13 meters. (Approx.)
Therefore, the length of the pendulum is 14.13 meters. (Answer)
To solve the problem, do the problem in the parenthesis () then do your answer with the numbers outside the ().
(8-3) = 5 x 3 = 15
(6 + 4) = 10 / 2 = 5
(6 - 4) = 2 / 2 = 1
(6 x 4) = 24 / 2 = 3
Um... part of the (6 4) doesn't make sense... What goes between the numbers? Plus, minus, multiply or division sign? Please tell.
But, I already got you started off and I'll let you figure out the rest. (If you can not figure out the rest, please tell me what sign is between the 6 and 4 in (6 4) and then I'll give you the answer and a better explanation.)
I hope this helps! :D
