Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total melon= 1 1/2

In simple fraction= 3/2

DIvide 3/2 by 2

= 3/2/3

=3/2 * 1/3

=3/6

= 1/2

Hence each person will get 1/2 of the whole water melon

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

(6³ * 3³)² = 18⁶

Multiply inside the parenthesis.

(18³)² = 18⁶

When you put powers to powers, they multiply, eg:

(x³)⁴ = x³°⁴ = x¹²

18⁶ = 18⁶

True.

Combine likes terms to create an equivalent expression 1/7 - 3(3/7h -2/7)

Anastasy [175]

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7}) = \frac{7-9h}{7}$

Solution:

Given expression is:

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})$

We have to combine the like terms

From given expression,

$\frac{1}{7} -3(\frac{3}{7}h -\frac{2}{7})$

By distributive property,

The distributive property lets you multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

a(b + c) = ab + bc

Therefore,

Solve for brackets using distributive property

$\frac{1}{7} - (3 \times \frac{3}{7}h) + (3 \times \frac{2}{7})\\\\\frac{1}{7} - \frac{9h}{7} + \frac{6}{7}$

Add 1/7 and 6/7

$\frac{1}{7} + \frac{6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\\frac{1+6}{7} -\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7}{7}-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\1-\frac{9h}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{7-9h}{7}$

Thus the equivalent expression is found

Please help ASAP!!!!!

Use pythagorean’s theorem
as you can see it’s a right isosceles triangle

so your equation is adapted to this:
p^2 + p^2=44^2
add like terms and simplify
2p^2=1936
divide by 2
p^2=968
square root
p= √968
simplify
p=22√2

the answer would be your second option
