The statement is correct.

3/4 divided by 1/2 can be written as 3/4 x 2/1, because even dividing fractions you can flip the second one and multiply instead.

This gives 6/4, which can be written as 3/2. This is top heavy, meaning it is greater than 1. It could also be said as 3 divided by 2, and half of 3 is 1.5, greater than 1.

For the second one, 1/2 divided by 3/4 can be written as 1/2 x 4/3, which is 4/6, also written as 2/3.

2/3 is less than 3/3, making it less than 1.

This means Pilar is correct for both cases as the former is indeed greater than 1 and the latter is less than.

Answer:

i hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^{2} -16=0

+16        +16

2x^{2} =16

÷2    ÷2

x^{2} = 8

\sqrt{x^{2} }= \sqrt{8}

x= \sqrt{8}

-5x^{2} +9=0

-9          -9

-5x^{2}=-9

÷-5   ÷-5

x^{2} =1.8

\sqrt{x^{2} }= \sqrt{1.8}

x= \sqrt{1.8}

6x^{2} -15=27

+15        +15

6x^{2} =42

÷6   ÷6

x^{2} =7

\sqrt{x^{2} }= \sqrt{7}

x=\sqrt{7}

Determine the lateral area and surface area of the given prism. Round answers to the nearest whole number.
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Lateral Area = Area of 2 triangle + Area of slant rectangle + area of back rectangle

Lateral Area = (5m)(3m) + (6m) (36m) + (3m) (36m)

LA = 15m² + 216m² + 108m²

LA = 339 m²

SA = (5m)(3m) + (6m) (36m) + (3m) (36m) + (5m)(36m)

SA = 15m² + 216m² + 108m² + 180 m²

SA = 519 m²
