Answer:

No

If the fraction is an improper fraction, the product would be higher

if the numerator of the fraction is smaller than the denominator, the product would be lower

2 x 3/4 = 3/2 = 1 1/2

2 x 4/3 = 8/3 = 2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

an improper fraction is a fraction in which the numerator is greater than the denominator

The numerator is the number above. While the denominator is the number below

an example of a fraction = \frac{4}{5}  

4 is the numerator while 5 is the denominator

Please help me find the area for this hexagon (please show work to) ,:)
kvasek [131]

Check the picture below.

so the area of the hexagon is really just the area of two isosceles trapezoids.

\textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} h=height\\ a,b=\stackrel{parallel~sides}{bases}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=2\\ b=4\\ h=2 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} A=\cfrac{2(2+4)}{2}\implies A=6 \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{twice that much}}{2A = 12} \end{array}

Maria says the mean of the scores 7, 8, 3, 0, 2 is 5, because she added the scores and divided by 4. Is she correct? Explain why
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

She is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean score is

7 + 8 + 3 + 0 + 2= 20

We then divide it by the number which is 5

20/5= 4.

Therefore, Maria is wrong.

This is because she divided by 4 instead of 5, as she didn't include the rational number 0.
