Answer:

  • (4/3)⁹⁸ units²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Regular hexagons have a property that cutting off the triangles obtained by joining the midpoints of consecutive sides leaves a hexagon of 3/4 of the area.</em>

This means the area of each hexagon inside out starting from the one with unit area is 4/3 of the previous one.

  • 99 ⇒ 1
  • 98 ⇒ 1*4/3
  • 97 ⇒ 1*(4/3)²
  • ...
  • 1 ⇒ (4/3)⁹⁹⁻¹

<u>The original hexagon has the area of:</u>

  • (4/3)⁹⁸ units²

Rewrite ×3×3×33 using an exponent
Anna11 [10]
the exponent tells you how many times to multiply the base number by itself.   for 35 the base number or base is 3 and the exponent is 5   the value is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 which has 3 multiplied by itself five times   So your question is going in the opposite direction.   Rather than going from a power and expanding it, we have the expanded form and we are asked to write the power   3 x 3 x 3 is written  33

What does "rationalizing" the denominator mean?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

It simply means getting rid of the square root or radical in the denominator

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalizing the denominator simply means getting rid of the square root or radical symbol in the denominator thereby making the denominator to be just a whole number.

For example if we want to rationalize the denominator in; 3/√2

We will multiply the numerator and the denominator by √2 to get rid of the radical in the denominator which is the square root sign.

Thus;

(3/√2) × (√2)/(√2)

This gives;

(3√2)2

A rectangle has a perimeter of 82. If the width of the rectangle is one less than twice the length , find the width of the recta
Volgvan

Answer:

ans:- 14

Step-by-step explanation:

let length = x

so, width= 2x -1

perimeter= 2(l +b)

82 = 2(x+ 2x-1)

41 = 3x - 1

3x = 42

x = 14
