Answer:

Both

Step-by-step explanation:

Summer is three months in the year, there are four seasons in a year. Also, if you do 1/4 times 3 you get 3/12!

Answer:


Step-by-ste

Oh, oh! This is such a tricky question...

Guess what!

Both of them are correct. Why?

Because if we simplify 3/12, we get 1/4th!

(How do you simplify?)

3/12 = 1/4

Because if we divide both "3" and "12" in 3/12 by 3, we get 1 instead of 3 and 4 instead of 12.


I hope you've got it! ;)

torisob [31]

Answer:

24 customers bought 3+ items.

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of 150 = 120

39/120 bought 1 item

57/120 bought 2 items

39 + 57 = 96

120 - 96 = 24

24 customers bought 3+ items.

Hope this helps! :)

Prove 1 and 3 are supplementary
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Also question is, can 3 angles be supplementary? Remember, only a pair of angles can be supplementary. Sure, the three angles in a triangle may add up to 180 degrees, but there are three angles in a triangle, so they are not supplementary!

The force, F (Newtons), between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, d (metres), between them.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

d = 1.46 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by obtaining the relationship between the force (F) and the distance (d). This can be obtained as follow:

From the question given above,

F is inversely proportional to square of d. This can be written as:

F ∝ 1/d²

F = K/d²

Cross multiply

K = Fd²

But:

Force (F) = 0.006 N

Distance (d) = 4 m

Constant (K) =?

K = Fd²

K = 0.006 × 4²

K = 0.006 × 16

K = 0.096 Nm²

Therefore, the relationship between the force (F) and the distance (d) is:

F = K/d²

F = 0.096 / d²

Finally, we shall determine the distance when the force is 0.045 N. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) = 0.045 N

Constant (K) = 0.096 Nm²

Distance (d) =?

F = K/d²

0.045 = 0.096 / d²

Cross multiply

0.045 × d² = 0.096

Divide both side by 0.045

d² = 0.096 / 0.045

Take the square root of both side.

d = √(0.096 / 0.045)

d = 1.46 m.
