Answer: The mixed number 5 & 1/2

====================================

Work Shown:

1 & 1/2 = 1 + 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2

3 & 2/3 = 3 + 2/3 = 9/3 + 2/3 = 11/3

------

Multiplying 1&1/2 with 3&2/3 is the same as multiplying 3/2 and 11/3

(3/2)*(11/3) = (3*11)/(2*3) = 11/2

-------

Use long division to find that 11/2 = 5 & 1/2

Or you can break it up like this

11/2 = (10+1)/2 = 10/2 + 1/2 = 5 + 1/2 = 5 & 1/2

A – If P(n,4) = 20 × P(n,2), determine the value of n.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

P(n,4)÷P(n,2)

= (n-2)(n-3)

20 = 4 × 5 (two consecutive numbers)

(n-2)(n-3)=5×4

n-2=5

n=7

A cell tower is located at and transmits a circular signal that covers three major cities. The three cities are located on the c

Lelu [443]

Answer:

$(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "A cell tower is located at (-8, 4) and transmits a circular signal that covers three major cities. The three cities are located on the circle and have the following coordinates: G (-4, 7), H (-13, 4), and I (-8, -1). Find the equation of the circle"

For this case the generla equation for the circle is given by:

$(x-h)^2 +(y-k)^2 = r^2$

From the info we know that the tower is located at (-8, 4) so then h = -8 and k = 4, so then we need to find the radius. So we have the equation like this: $(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = r^2$

If the 3 points are on the circle then satisfy the equation. We can use the first point (-4,7) and if we replace we can find the value for $r^2$

$(-4+8)^2 +(7-4)^2 =25= r^2$

So then $r = \sqrt{25}=5$

And if we replace the second point we got this:

$(-13+8)^2 +(4-4)^2 = 25 =r^2$

And for the third point we have:

$(-8+8)^2 +(-1-4)^2 = 25 =r^2$

And we got the same result.

So then our final equation is given:

$(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 25$

Can someone help me with question e please ?

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The domain is R- all real numbers.

b) The domain is R- all real numbers.

c) we need

$x^{2}-4\neq 0\\x^{2} \neq 4\\x\neq 2\\and\\x\neq -2$

So the domain is R\{-2, 2}

we need

$x^{2}+x-2\neq 0\\x\neq 1\\and\\x\neq -2$

So the domain is R\{-2, 1}

we need: x-1>0 or x> 1

So the domain is (1,+∞)

3 + 5x - 10 = 13, Whats x?

Romashka [77]

Hi there, 3+-10=-7 so, -7+5x=13. First, we add -7 to both sides, which gives us 5x=13+7, 13+7=20, so 5x=20. Now, we divide both sides by 5, Therefore, x=4
