Answer:

there isn't really an answer

Step-by-step explanation:

use the greatest common denominator (12) for all of them

for 3/12 you dont have to change it,

for 1/6 multiply it by 2, (2/12)

for 1/3 multiply it by 4, (4/12

The least is 2/12 or 1/6

then comes 3/12

then the greatest is 4/12 or 1/3

Answer:

1/6, 3/12, 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert in the same denominator

3/12

1/6 = 2/12

1/3 = 4/12

2/12, 3/12, 4/12

1/6, 3/12, 1/3

Answer: The expression that represents the area of Mary's new garden =2x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is given by x^2, where x is the length of one side. The length of the other side is also x. In a square, all sides are equal. each of the four sides equal x

Area = x × x

Area = x^2

She decided to double the area of her garden

New area = 2(x × x)

New area = 2x^2

The expression that represents the area of Mary's new garden =2x^2

Fiesta28 [93]

Question:

Point T, the midpoint of segment RS, can be found using the formulas x = (1/2) (6 – 2) + 2 and y = (1/2) (4 – 6) + 6. What are the coordinates of point T?

Answer:

$T(4,5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x = \frac{1}{2}(6 - 2) + 2$

$y = \frac{1}{2}(4 - 6) + 6$

Required

Determine the coordinates of T

The coordinates of T can be represented as $T(x,y)$

To do this, we simply solve for x and y

$x = \frac{1}{2}(6 - 2) + 2$

Solve 6 - 2

$x = \frac{1}{2}*4 + 2$

Solve 1/2 * 4

$x = 2 + 2$

$x = 4$

$y = \frac{1}{2}(4 - 6) + 6$

Solve 4 - 6

$y = \frac{1}{2}*-2 + 6$

Solve 1/2 * -2

$y = -1 + 6$

$y = 5$

Hence, the coordinates of T(x,y) is:

$T(x,y) = T(4,5)$

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 10 and passes through the point (–5, 1)? Check all that ap

Bond [772]

So the right options are:

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1$

$2x+5y = -5$

$y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)$

Further explanation:

Given equation of line is:

2x+5y=10

We have to convert it into point-slope form

$2x+5y=10\\5y=-2x+10\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{10}{5}\\y=-\frac{2}{5}x+2$

The co-efficient of x is the slope of the line

So,

$m= -\frac{2}{5}$

As the required line is parallel to given line, it will also have same slope.

Let m1 be the slope of required line

Then the line will be:

$y=m_1x+b$

Putting the value of slope

$y=\frac{2}{5}x+b$

Putting (-5,1) in the equation to find the value of b

$1=-\frac{2}{5}(-5)+b\\1=2+b\\b=1-2\\b=-1$

Putting the values of slope and b in equation

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1$

Multiplying the whole equation by 5 will give us:

5y = -2x-5

2x+5y = -5

Another form of equation of line is Point-slope form

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Putting the values of slope and point in the equation, we get

$y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)$

So the right options are:

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1$

$2x+5y = -5$

$y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)$

A lightbulb has a normally distributed light output with mean 5000 end foot-candles and standard deviation of 50 end foot-candle

Blizzard [7]

To find the specification limit such that only 0.5% of the bulbs will not exceed this limit we proceed as follows;
From the z-table, a z-score of -2.57 cuts off 0.005 in the left tail; given the formula for z-score
(x-μ)/σ
we shall have:
(x-5000)/50=-2.57
solving for x we get:
x-5000=-128.5
x=-128.5+5000
x=4871.50
