The answer is -3.
It is basically asking what 1/4 of -12 is.
1/4 is equal to .25.
So .25 x -12= -3 which is your answer.

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying a positive number with a negative number, the product will <u>always</u> be negative. First, let's solve the problem disregarding the negative sign.

  • \frac{1}{4} * 12
  • \frac{12}{4}
  • 3

Now that we know the product of 1/4 x 12 is 3, we can assume that the product of 1/4 x -12 is -3.

We define a bow-tie quadrilateral as a quadrilateral where two sides cross each other. An example of a bow-tie quadrilateral is
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

70/5985

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a quadrilateral needs to have four vertices (or points on the circle). There are always two ways to link the cross — horizontally or vertically. Using my limited knowledge of combinations, we know that choosing four points out of seven equals 35. Multiplying the two ways to connect those lines (again, horizontally and vertically) makes 35*2 = 70 "bow-tie quadrilaterals" that can be formed on the circle using four points. There are 5985 ways four chords can be chosen out of twenty-five chords because C(25,4) equals 5985, so the probability is 70/5985... and then we just need to simplify that fraction.

The sum of the first n consecutive even numbers can be found using S=n2+n, where n≥2. What is the value of n when the sum is 42?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

  • C. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • S = n² + n
  • S = 42, n = ?

<u>Substitute and solve for n:</u>

  • 42 = n² + n
  • n² + 2*1/2n + 1/4 = 42.25
  • (n + 0.5)² = 42.25
  • n + 0.5 = √42.25
  • n + 0.5 = 6.5
  • n = 6

Correct option is C
