You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.
___
We have shown methods using multiplication, division, subtraction, addition. Take your pick.
Let Surface Area A, a the base edge and h the height:
A = a²+2a√(a²/4+h²)
h=?
pythagorean theorem:
h²=c²-a²
h=√(c²-a²)
h=√(8²-(.7/2)²)= 8
plug it in the above equation A= 11.7ft²
So A is correct
Well, since we know is a geometric sequence, we can always get the common ratio of it by simply dividing one value by the one behind it... so let's do so, with say hmm -32 and 8 -32/8 = -4 <-- our common ratio
the first term is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
I can only answer part 2 of your question, "If we multiply two positive numbers, is the result positive or negative?". if you multiply 2 positive numbers your answer would be positive.
