Answer:

C, 11/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is only one February in one year, and there are eleven other months (January, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December) so therefore 11/12 is the correct answer.

Predict if the product will be greater than, less than or equal to the second factor 4/5 x 1 2/5 = y

Radda [10]

Answer:

The product will be less than the second factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$\frac{4}{5}\:\times \:1\frac{2}{5}\:=y$

solving to determine the product value

$y=\:\frac{4}{5}\times \:\:1\frac{2}{5}$

$=\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{7}{5}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{b}\times \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a\:\times \:c}{b\:\times \:d}$

$=\frac{4\times \:7}{5\times \:5}$

$=\frac{28}{5\times \:5}$

$=\frac{28}{25}$

As the value of the second factor is:

$1\frac{2}{5}=\frac{7}{5}=1.4$

And the product value is:

$y=\frac{28}{25}=1.12$

It is clear that the product value 'y = 1.12' is lesser than the second factor value '1.4'.

i.e. 1.12 < 1.4

Thus, the product will be less than the second factor.

Pyramid A is a square pyramid with a base side length of 12 inches and a height of 8 inches. Pyramid B is a square pyramid with

yan [13]

Answer:

The volume of pyramid B is 64 times the volume of pyramid A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two square pyramids A and B.

Side Length of A, $s_A =$ 12 inches

Height of A, $h_A =$ 8 inches

Side Length of B, $s_B =$ 48 inches

Height of B, $h_B =$ 32 inches

To find:

How many times bigger is the volume of pyramid B than pyramid A?

$V_B$ is how many times bigger than $V_A$ ?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the formula for volume of a pyramid:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3} \times \text{Area of Base} \times \text{Height}$

Here, base is square, so:

$V=\dfrac{1}{3} \times s^2 \times h$

Volume of pyramid A:

$V_A=\dfrac{1}{3} \times s_A^2 \times h_A$

$\Rightarrow V_A=\dfrac{1}{3} \times 12^2 \times 8 = 384\ inch^3$

Volume of pyramid B:

$V_B=\dfrac{1}{3} \times s_B^2 \times h_B$

$\Rightarrow V_B=\dfrac{1}{3} \times 48^2 \times 32 \\\Rightarrow V_B=\dfrac{1}{3} \times 12^2 \times 8 \times 4^2 \times 4\\\Rightarrow V_B=\dfrac{1}{3} \times 12^2 \times 8 \times 64\\\Rightarrow V_B= 24576\ inch^3 = 384\times 64\ inch^3\\\Rightarrow V_B = V_A\times 64\ inch^3$

The volume of pyramid B is 64 times the volume of pyramid A.

Solve for x. The figure is a parallelogram

Ivan

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent, then

94x + 1 = 95 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

94x = 94 ( divide both sides by 94 )

x = 1
