the length of the flower garden is 3 times as great as the width. what are the dimensions of the flower garden

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Without any more information we can't find the actual numerical representation of the length and width but we can give an expression that will allow us to find them...

We let the width equal x, so the length is 3x. That would be the dimensions...

length = 3x
width = x

So to find perimeter the expression would be

2(3x) + 2(x) =
6x + 2x =
8x

For the area it would be

a= length × width
a = 3x × x
a = 3x^2

why do whole numbers raised to an exponent get greater while fractions raised to an exponent get smaller?

Answers

Any number above 1 gets greater, below 1 smaller (when above 0), while 1 itself remains the same. Negative numbers are more unpredictable.

Answer:

Because whole numbers are greater than 1 and any number greater than 1 multiplied by it self several times result in a greater number, but proper fractions are numbers less than 1, and a number less than 1 multiplied by it self several times result if a smaller number.

Explanation:

Whole numbers areraised to an exponent , means that such number is multiplied by itself (as many times and the exponent is).

Whole numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, ....

Number 1 is a special case. When 1 is multiplied by it self the result is 1.

When other whole number (2, 3, 4, 5, ...) is multiplied by it self the result is a greater number. For example, 2 × 2 = 4, 3 × 3 = 9, and so on.

On the other hand, proper fractions, which are those whose numerator is less than the denominator, are less than one, and any number less than 1 multiplied by it self results in a smaller number.

For example: 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4 or 0.5 × 0.5 = 0.25. This is always true for any proper fraction (a number less than 1).

Plot the numbers -2 and 5/6 and 7/3 on the number line

Answers

For the first one go -2 back, then go 5/6th of the way to -3. For the next one, convert to a mixed fraction by dividing the numerator as many times as possible by the denominator, putting the result as the whole number off to the left, then put the remainder as the numerator and keep the same denominator.
