4.A counterexample can be used to show that a conjecture is false. Below are three
conjectures students made after visiting a zoo. Write a counterexample that shows that each
conjecture is false.
a. There are always more elephants in a zoo than giraffes.

b. The oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is 33 years old.
c. American bison are never over 6 feet tall.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In some zoos the are more elephants than giraffes, then this conjecture can be true sometimes, however, this can not always be true because some zoo could have more giraffes

2. This can be true unless that turtle ages, or another is found that is taken into captivi9ty and found to be older

3. While most American bison are usaually below 6 feet, that is no gureantee there is no occasaional taller American Bison.

The equation is given as:

A linear equation is represented as:

Where m represents the slope, and c represents the y-intercept

So, by comparison:

m = 0.5

c = 5

This means that:

x and y simplifying problem. Please explain how to do thiese. I will gove 15 points

Answers

[tex]\dfrac 56 x + \dfrac25 y - \dfrac14 x + \dfrac3{10} y[/tex]

First, combine like terms:

[tex]\left(\dfrac 56 - \dfrac14\right) x + \left(\dfrac25 + \dfrac3{10}\right)y[/tex]

Now just simplify the coefficients of x and y. We do this by converting each pair of fractions to ones with a common denominator. Then we can combine them easily.

[tex]\dfrac56 - \dfrac14 = \dfrac56\cdot\dfrac22 - \dfrac14\cdot\dfrac33 = \dfrac{5\cdot2}{6\cdot2} - \dfrac{1\cdot3}{4\cdot3} = \dfrac{10}{12} - \dfrac3{12} = \dfrac{10-3}{12} = \dfrac7{12}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac25 + \dfrac3{10} = \dfrac25\cdot\dfrac22 + \dfrac3{10} = \dfrac{2\cdot2}{5\cdot2} + \dfrac3{10} = \dfrac4{10} + \dfrac3{10} = \dfrac{4+3}{10} = \dfrac7{10}[/tex]

So the simplified expression would be

[tex]\dfrac7{12} x + \dfrac7{10} y[/tex]

Sort the sequences according to whether they are arithmetic, geometric, or neither.

Answers

Answer:

arithmeticneithergeometricarithmeticgeometric

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequences have a common difference. Often, checking for that is the easiest. Geometric sequences have a common ratio. If there is neither a common difference nor a common ratio, then the sequence is not one of these types.

The difference or ratio refers to the relation of a term in the sequence to the one before it. For example, 94.1 -98.3 = -4.2. If the same difference exists for subsequent pairs of terms, then the difference is said to be "common." Likewise, 3.5/1.75 = 2. If the same ratio exists for subsequent pairs of terms, it is a "common" ratio.

__

98.3, 94.1, ... -- arithmetic (common difference = -4.2)

1, 0, -1, 0, ... -- neither

1.75, 3.5, ... -- geometric (common ratio = 2)

-12, -10.8, ... -- arithmetic (common difference = -1.2)

-1, 1, ... -- geometric (common ratio = -1)

Answer: Arithmetic (98.3,94.1, 89.9, 85.7,...)  (-12,-10.8, -9.6,-8.4)

Geometric (1.75,3.5,7, 14) (-1,1,-1,1,...)

Measure the paper clip to the nearest 1/8 inch.

A. 1 2/8 inches

B. 1 1/2 inches

C. 1 4/8 inches

D. 1 3/8 inches

Answers

Answer:

1 3/8   D

Step-by-step explanation:

The first and most obvious part of the answer is that the paper clip is at least 1 inch long. The question is how much longer?

It is between 1/4 of an inch and 1/2 of an inch. In fact it is exactly half way between them.

So that resembles an average.

(1/4 + 1/2)/2 = (1/4 + 2/4) / 2 = (3/4)/2

[tex]\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{2} = \frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{2}{1} }[/tex]

Simplify p/18

7= 7/1= 7*18/18

p+7*18/18=p+126/18

(p+126)/18-9=0

9=9/1=9*18/18
