The length of an alligator in a zoo is 14 5/6 feet.The everglades national parks list the longest alligator ever reocord in flor

Answer:

The difference in the lengths of the two alligators = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let us make the lengths improper fractions, then we will find the difference from there.

Alligator 1:

Length = $14\frac{5}{12} = \frac{173}{12}$

To convert to improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, and then add the denominator [(12 × 14) + 5]

Alligator 2:

Length = $17\frac{5}{12} = \frac{209}{12}$

Now Let us find the difference between the lengths:

$\frac{209}{12} - \frac{173}{12} = \frac{36}{12} =3$

Therefore the difference in the lengths of the two alligators = 3

P is a prime number. Show that p²+6 could be either even or odd

storchak [24]

p ² + 6 is even if p ² is even (the sum of two even numbers is even), and this happens only if p itself is even, i.e. if p = 2 since 2 is the only even prime.

All other primes p are odd, so p ² would be odd, and adding 6 would not change that (odd + even = odd).

What’s the slope between -14,-10 and 12,18

maria [59]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-14}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-10})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{12}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{18}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{18-(-10)}{12-(-14)}\implies \cfrac{18+10}{12+14}\implies \cfrac{28}{26}\implies \cfrac{14}{13}$
