Answer: y=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the number of lengths of the pool Lionel swam.

Given :  Miguel swam 6 lengths of the pool .

Lionel swam \dfrac{1}{3} as far as Miguel.

Then, the number of lengths Lionel swam :

y=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot \text{No. of lengths of pool Miguel swam }

y=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 6

Hence, the equation for how many lengths did Lionel swim will be :

y=\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 6

If we simplify it , we get y= 2

Thus , Lionel swam 2 lengths of pool.

Suppose the circumference of a circle is 4, pi. What is its diameter?
Vilka [71]
Your answer would be 4, because the equation for the circumference of a circle is π × diameter, so if you have 4 × π as the circumference, then 4 is the diameter.

I hope this helps!

lara [203]

Answer:

Hey there, Lets solve this step by step.  

A number t divided by 82  

Let the number be represented by y.  

t divided by 82 = t / 8  

Therefore-  

 

In algebraic expressions, "y" is normally used as the dependent variable and "x" is normally used as the independent variable, instead of other variables. So that is why i used the variable y in the equation.

What is 12 1/2 as an improper fraction??
Olegator [25]
<span>To convert 12.5 to a fraction, consider the decimal portion of the number, .5. Since .5 is in the tenth spot of the decimal, it may be read as five-tenths, or 5/10. To reduce it to lowest terms, find the lowest common denominator, 5, and divide each by that number to get 1/2, or one-half. Thus, the number is now 12 1/2. To convert this mixed number into an entirely rational fraction, multiply the whole number, 12, by the denominator, 2, to get 24, then add the numerator, to end up with 25. This is the new numerator, so the rational number is 25/2. To check the work, divide 25 by 2 on a calculator or as a decimal equation, yielding 12.5.</span>
