Answer:

$\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{3}$

The reciprocal of $\frac{1}{3}$ is 3, so finding the reciprocal will replace the division sign with a multiplication sign.

= $\frac{1}{2}$ x 3

= $\frac{3}{2}$ or 1 $\frac{1}{2}$ or 1.5

A square piece of paper has an area of x2 square units. A rectangular strip with a width of 2 units and a length of x units is c

vlabodo [156]

Let

x--------> the length side of the original square paper

we know that

the area of the original square paper is equal to

$A1=x*x=x^{2} \ units^{2}$

the area of the remaining piece of paper is equal to

$A2=x^{2} -2x\\ A2=120\ units^{2} \\ so\\ x^{2} -2x=120\\ x^{2} -2x-120=0$

therefore

the answer is the option

x2 − 2x − 120 = 0

The equation is y = 14x + 10. Which is true regarding the slope?

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The slope is 14/1, meaning you rise 14, then run 1. This is a steep slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope equation is y=mx+b. The "m" in the equation is equal to the slope. In your case, 14 takes the place of the "m", making it the slope.
