1 5/6 divided by 11/12

1 answer:

8 0

First convert the mixed number to a fraction: 1 5/6 = 11/6.
$\frac{\frac{11}{6}}{\frac{11}{12}}=\frac{11}{6}\times\frac{12}{11}=2$

Answer:

n = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent , that is

AB = DC , substitute values

$\frac{2}{3}$ n - 5 = $\frac{1}{3}$ n + 7 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fractions )

2n - 15 = n + 21 ( subtract n from both sides )

n - 15 = 21 ( add 15 to both sides )

n = 36

Why is the answer A? Plzzz explain.

Contact [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4

f(x + a) = (x + a)^2 + 4(x + a) + 4

f(x + a) = x^2 + 2ax + a^2 + 4x + 4a + 4 Now combine like terms and use the distributive property.

f(x + a) = x^2 + (2a + 4)x + a^2 + 4a + 4

We are told that f(x + a) = x^2 - 6x + 9

So that means that

2a + 4 = - 6 Subtract 4 from both sides.

2a = - 6 - 4

2a = - 10 Divide by 2

a = - 10/2

a = - 5.

But you are not finished. You have to check the last part.

a^2 + 4x + 4 = 9

(a + 2)^2 = 9

Take the square root of both sides

sqrt(a+ 2)^2 = +/- 3

a+2 = 3

a = 1.

Does this work or is it extraneous? It is extraneous because it will not work for 2(a) + 4 = - 6

You get 6 = - 6 which is not correct. But you did give the second best answer.

a + 2 = - 3

a = - 3 - 2

a = - 5 which agrees with your previous answer.

===========

This is an extremely hard or tricky or sneaky problem. It takes a lot of conniving to get the right answer and 1 is not a left field answer. It just does not happen to be correct.

A survey was conducted to determine whether hours of sleep per night are independent of age. A sample of individuals was asked t

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Sleep hours per night is independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Hours of Sleep 39 or younger 40 or older

> 6 _____38 36

6 to 6.9 _ 61 58

7 to 7.9 __76 74

8 or more 65 92

The Chisquare statistic is to be used to perform the analysis :

The hypothesis :

H0: Sleep hours per night is independent

H1: Sleep hours per night is not independent

χ² = (observed - Expected)² / Expected

To save computation time. We could use a Chisquare calculator to perform the analysis :

The test statistic = 4.0061

The degree of freedom = (row - 1) * (column - 1)

Degree of freedom = (4-1)*(2-1) = 3*1 = 3

The Pvalue = 0.261

Since, Pvalue > α ; We fail to reject the H0 ;and conclude that sleep hours per night is independent.

Annie’s change purse contained 5 quarters 8 dimes and 8 nickels if Annie chose 2 coin randomly without replacing them in her pur

Bogdan [553]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

2/15

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

There are 8C2 = 28 ways to choose 2 dimes from the 8 dimes in Annie's purse. There are 21C2 = 210 ways to choose 2 coins from the 21 coins in Annie's purse.

Of the 210 ways to choose 2 coins, 28 of the choices will result in 2 dimes being chosen. The probability of choosing 2 dimes is 28/210 = 2/15.

_____

<em>Comment on nCk</em>

The number of ways to choose k objects from n, when order does not matter, is ...

... n!/(k!(n -k)!)

For the computations above, we have ...

... 8C2 = 8·7/(2·1) = 28

... 21C2 = 21·20/(2·1) = 210

A parabola has a minimum value of 0, a y-intercept of 4, and an axis of symmetry at x = -2

sveta [45]

Since the minimum value is 0 and axis of symmetry is -2 this means that the vertex is at -2,0 now with the y intercept of 4. You can now plug the values into Vertex form which will be y=a(x-h)^2+k. a being the shrink or stretch of the parabola, h being the x value of the vertex, and k being the y value of the vertex. with all of that plugged in it should look like y=(x+2)^2. You can check this equation by plugging in 0 as x which should find the y intercept of 4. So it should then look like y=(0+2)^2 -> y=(2)^2 -> y=4
