How do I draw a visual model using 1/6 of 18? Please help. I'm asking for my 5th grader. Thank you!

svp [43]

Answer:

Theory

Step-by-step explanation:

Take any 18 objects

For example in this case

Take 18 chocolates

$\frac{1}{6}$ means one sixth , which practically means how many groups of 6 can be formed

So, Try to divide 18 into groups of 6

Count how many such groups are formed(it will be 3)

So one sixth of 18 is 3

That is, 18 comprises of 3 groups, each group containing 6 chocolates

What's is the converse of the statement?If x is odd, then 2x is even.

dsp73

If you have two statements p and q and $p\Rightarrow q$ is true, then $\neg q\Rightarrow \neg p$ is also true.

In your case, statements are p - "x is odd" and q - "2x is even".

Then $\neg p$ - "x is not odd" and $\neg q$ - "2x is not even."

Hence $\neg q\Rightarrow \neg p$ sounds as: "If 2x is not even, then x is not odd".
Answer: correct choice is D.

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this

Firlakuza [10]

The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ after a time, t, is given by:

$N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{ \frac{1}{2} }}$

Given that <span>potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

$0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\ \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5$

Therefore, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>

Find the area of a square if the perimeter is equal to 38 in.

Misha Larkins [42]

Hello! I would love to help!

Alright! We know that perimeter is basically adding all the sides of a shape together. We also know that a square has 4 sides, so 38 is the result of 4 sides being added. Now, we also know that all sides of a square are even. So, to find one side of a square, we just need to do 38/4

38/4=9.5

Alright. So now we know one side of a square is 9.5 in. We know that in order to find area, we have to multiply length and width. We know that since all sides of a square are even, 9.5 is both our length and width. So, in order to find the area, we just have to multiply 9.5 by 9.5

9.5*9.5=90.25

Alright! So we have determined your answer!!!

90.25 or in fraction form 90 1/4 inches squared!

Hope this helped! Comment if you have questions!!
