Sean has 1/5 of a cupcake and 1/5 of a large cake . Are the wholes the same? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I don't think the wholes are the same because if you imagine a cup cake and a cake of different sizes cut into equally 5 pieces, one piece of the cup cake won't be the same size as the piece of cake.
or fractions are to show the fractions of something, so just because two fractions are the same it doesn't mean the whole numbers are the same too.
Answer 2
Answer: No, the only way I can explain it is with actual numbers. 50% of 100 is not the same as 50% of 200. Though the ratio may be the same, the wholes are not the same.

Answers

Vertex formula = -b/2a
-18/1 = 18.
However, this is just the x value, the vertex is (x,y)
-18*2 + 18(18) - 72 = 576

What is the 10th term of the pattern with general rule 6n + 11?

Answers

If 6n + 11 is the pattern, and they are asking for the 10th term in this sequence, then we have to do (6*10) + 11, which is 60 + 11, which is 71.

Answer: 71.

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF ANGLE N?

Answers

Answer:

32 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

An inscribed angle is an angle with its vertex on the circle, formed by two intersecting chords. Angle N perfectly fits this description. An inscribed angle is equal to 1/2 of its intercepted arc (the arc opposite the angle). The arc opposite angle N is equal to 64 degrees, so angle N is equal to 1/2 of that, or 32 degrees

Toothpicks are used to make a grid that is 60 toothpicks long and 32 toothpicks wide. How man toothpicks are used altogether?

Answers

Finding how many toothpicks were used altogether is the same process as finding the area, so we have to multiply 32 by 60 which equals 1920. So the final answer is 1920

Final answer:

To find the total number of toothpicks used in the grid, calculate the perimeter of the grid by adding the lengths of all its sides. In this case, the perimeter is 184 toothpicks.

Explanation:

To find the total number of toothpicks used in the grid, we need to calculate the perimeter of the grid. The perimeter of a rectangle is found by adding the lengths of all its sides. In this case, we have a grid that is 60 toothpicks long and 32 toothpicks wide. So, the perimeter is (60 + 32 + 60 + 32) = 184. Therefore, a total of 184 toothpicks are used altogether.

9.V = (√(3))/(2)a^(2)h
   V = (√(3))/(2)(4)^(2)(8)
   V = (√(3))/(2)(16)(8)
   V = (√(3))/(2)(128)
   V = (128√(3))/(2)
   V = 64√(3)\ cm^(3)
The answer is D.

10. V = ¹/₃πr²h
      V = ¹/₃(3.14)(6)²(10)
      V = ¹/₃(3.14)(36)(10)
      V = ¹/₃(3.14)(360)
      V = ¹/₃(1130.4)
      V = 376.8 cm³
The answer is C.

11. V = ¹/₃πr²h
      V = ¹/₃(3.14)(6)²(10)
      V = ¹/₃(3.14)(36)(10)
      V = ¹/₃(3.14)(360)
      V = ¹/₃(1130.4)
      V = 376.8 cm³
The answer is C.

12. V = 1
¹/₃πr³

      V = 1¹/₃(3.14)(27)
      V = 1¹/₃(84.78)
      V = 113.04 cm³
The answer is C.

13. V = 1¹/₃πr³
      V = 1¹/₃(3.14)(12)³
      V = 1¹/₃(3.14)(1728)
      V = 1¹/₃(5425.92)
      V = 7234.56 cm³
The answer is A.

14.        S = 4πr²
        324π = 4(3.14)(r)²
324(3.14) = 4(3.14r²)

V = 1¹/₃πr³
V = 1¹/₃(3.14)(9)³
V = 1¹/₃(3.14)(729)
V = 1¹/₃(2289.06)
V = 3052.08
