When you divide a fraction by a whole number greater than 1, is the quotient larger or smaller than the fraction?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  smaller for positive fractions

  larger for negative fractions

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing anything by a positive whole number greater than 1 gives a quotient that is closer to zero than the original dividend.

For positive fractions, the quotient is smaller.

  (1/2)/3 = 1/6 . . . . 1/6 < 1/2

For negative fractions, the quotient is larger.

  (-1/2)/3 = -1/6 . . . . -1/6 > -1/2

Answers

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

x = van

y = bus

12x + 9y = 456

1x + 2y = 83

(Simplify equations)

9y = -12x + 456

y = -1.3x + 456/9

2y = -x + 83

y = -1/2x + 41.5

(Find x)

-1.3x + (456/9) = -.5x + 41.5

0.8x = 9.16

(Round)

x = 11

(Find y by plugging x in)

y = -1/2(11) + 41.5

y = -5.5 + 41.5

y = 36

(Check)

12(11) + 9(36) = 456

132 + 324 = 456

1(11) + 2(36) = 83

11 + 72 = 83

If m\angle VXW=28\degreem∠VXW=28°, what is the measure of arc VW?

Answers

Answer:

m(arc VW) = 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠VXW = 28°

By inscribed angle theorem,

"Length of intercepted arc measures the double of the inscribed angle"

m(arc VW) = 2m(∠VXW)

m(arc VW) = 2(28°)

m(arc VW) = 56°

Therefore, measure of arc VW is 56°.

find the length of a missing side of the triangle around your nearest tenth​

Answers

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

14^2 = 8^2 + x^2

196 = 64 + x^2

Subtract 64 from both sides:

132 = x^2

Take the square root of both sides:

X = 11.49

Rounded to nearest tenth = 11.5

Answer:

missing side = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a^{2} = c^{2} - b^{2}[/tex]

[tex]a^{2} = 14^{2} - 8^{2}[/tex]

[tex]a^{2} = 196 - 64[/tex]

[tex]a^{2} = 132[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{a^{2} } - \sqrt{132}[/tex]

a = 11.489

round to the nearest tenth:

11.489 = 11.5

A countertop is 11 feet long and 4 fee t wide.

What is the area of the countertop in square meters? Use the conversion 1 foot = 0.305 meter. Round your
final answer to 2 decimal place

Answers

Answer:

4.09m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A countertop is 11 feet long and 4 fee t wide.

Using the conversion

1foot = 0.305 meter

11fet = 11(0.305)

11feet = 3.355 m

4 feet= 4 * 0.305

4feet = 1.22m

Area of the countertop = Length * Width

Area of the countertop = 3.355 * 1.22

Area of the countertop = 4.0931m^2

Hence the required area is 4.09m^2 to 2 decimal places
