It is never less than 1 because if it's an improper its a whole combined into the little part so a whole times a whole is always a whole whether it has a small part too or not

The product is never less than 1 because improper fractions are always greater than 1, and since the 2 improper fractions are both positive, the product will always be a positive number, and since the numbers are greater than one, they can never be one or less than one.
Examples:
3/2*3/2=9/4>1
5/4*5/4=25/16>1
1.1/1*1.1/1=1.21/1>1

X + (2x + 5) = 3(x – 4)+7
eduard

Answer:

Not true

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (2x + 5) = 3(x – 4)+7

Opening bracket on left and side and distributing 3 over (x-4) on right hand side

x+2x+5=3x-3 x 4 + 7

adding like terms

3x+5=3x-12+7

3x+5=3x-5

Hence

5 = -5

Which is not possible , Hence the equation given to us is false.

Please help with geometry will mark branliest!

x = 2

given 2 secants from an external point then

Then the product of the external part and the entire secant equals the product of the external part and the entire secant of the other secant.

3 ( 3 + 5 ) = 4 (4 + x )

3 × 8 = 4 ( 4 + x ) ⇒ 24 = 4 ( 4 + x )

divide both sides by 4

6 = 4 + x ⇒ x = 6 - 4 = 2

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

4 * 4 =16

Right triangle is 10 because 5 *4=10

9 * 9 = 81

7*5=35

16 + 10 + 81 + 35= 142

142 rounded to the nearest ten is 140
