Is this statement true or false 5/12 = 2/6

Mathematics
1 answer:
AveGali [126]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

6*2= 12

So to get common denominators, you would need to divide 5/12 by 2 OF multiply 2/6 by 2

For the sake of ease just multiply 2/6 by 2, this will equal 4/12 NOT 5/12

Hope this helps! :)

A middle school team scored three field goals worth three points each and two touchdowns worth six points with a single extra po
Bezzdna [24]
The team scored twenty-three points in total. 
This word sum can be worked out as follows:

Three field goals worth three points each is equal to nine points (3 x 3 = 9).
Two touchdowns were scored; each touchdown is worth six points. This equals twelve points (2 x 6 = 12).
Lastly, the team was awarded a bonus point for each touchdown they scored. They scored two touchdowns so they were awarded two extra points (2 x 1 = 2). 
Therefore, we have three subtotals: nine for the field goals; twelve for the touchdowns and two for the bonus points. The equation for this word sum is 9 + 12 + 2 = 23

What's the sum of the infinite geometric series where a1 = 240, and the common ratio is r = 1∕3 ?
sattari [20]

Answer:

360

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the sum of an infinite geometric series is a₁/(1-r), where a₁ represents the first value and r represents the ratio. We can plug in our values here to get

a₁/(1-r) = 240/(1-1/3)

= 240 / (2/3)

= (240/1) / (2/3)

= (240/1) * (3/2)

= 360

The average birth weight of elephants is 230 pounds. Assume that the distribution of birth weights is Normal with a standard dev
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

294.1 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the z score for 90th percentile

= 1.282

Step 2

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score ??

μ is the population mean = 230 pounds

σ is the population standard deviation= 50 pounds

1.282 = x - 230/50

Cross Multiply

1.282 × 50 = x - 230

64.1 = x - 230

x = 230 + 64.1

x = 294.1 pounds

The birth weight of elephants at the 90th percentile is 294.1 pounds.
