Answer:

  1. 9 camels
  2. 6 camels
  3. 2 camels

Step-by-step explanation:

If I add 1 camel to the herd, the first person can get (1/2)×18 = 9 camels.

The second person gets (1/3)×18 = 6 camels.

The third person gets (1/9)×18 = 2 camels.

The total number of camels distributed is 9+6+2 = 17 camels.

The one remaining is returned to me.

  • 1st person: 9 camels
  • 2nd person: 6 camels
  • 3rd person: 2 camels

_____

<em>Comment on the question</em>

This is a trick question, a joke, a riddle. 17 camels cannot be divided in the given proportions without dividing a camel. The total of camels distributed should be 1/2 +1/3 +1/9 = 17/18 of the herd. Each person actually gets 18/17 of their allotment.

What is 25.0996 rounded to the nearest thousandth
madreJ [45]

Answer:

25.100

Step-by-step explanation:

The thousandth place is the third digit to the right of the decimal point - tenths is the first, hundredths is the second, thousandths is the third.  Since six rounds up and both nines round up, one must round up all of the way from the fourth decimal place to the tenth decimal place.

Wen is factoring the polynomial, which has four terms. 6x3 – 12x2 7x – 14 6x2 (x – 2) 7(x – 2) Which is the completely factored
-Dominant- [34]

The completely factored form of the Wen's polynomial, which has the four terms initial, is,

(6x^2+7)(x-2)

<h3>What is the factor of polynomial?</h3>

The factor of a polynomial is the terms in linear form, which are when multiplied together, give the original polynomial equation as result.

Wen is factoring the polynomial, which has four terms.

6x^3 - 12x^2+ 7x - 14 '

Take out the greatest common factor from the equation and make separate groups as,

6x^2(x - 2)+ 7(x - 2)\\(x-2)(6x^2+7)

Rearrange the above equation as,

(6x^2+7)(x-2)

Thus, the completely factored form of the Wen's polynomial, which has the four terms initial, is,

(6x^2+7)(x-2)

Someone who knows the remainder theorem help!​
Damm [24]

Answer:

○ D. Yes, x = 12 is a zero of the polynomial.

The quotient is x + 22, and the remainder is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

On a second thought, I knew something similar to that theorem because factoring them would determine if it has a remainder:

[x - 12][x + 22]

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

* I apologize for the previous answer I gave you.
