Bonjour.

leah pose la question :
If 6/x - (x-1)/2 = 4
then the LCD is 2x, right?
so you get 12/2x - (x2-x)/2x = 8x/2x, right?
then what do you do with the 2x when you turn it into a quadratic equation?

How many cubic metres of water can safely be stored in the tank? |
2010-09-10 |
|
susanna pose la question :
This water tank is a perfect sphere with an inner radius of 12 metres. However, they used inferior materials to build the water tank, and the tank can only withstand a water pressure of 185 kiloPascals. Assume the density of water is exactly 1000 kg/m3, gravity is 9.8 metres/s2, and disregard atmospheric pressure.
How many cubic metres of water can safely be stored in the tank? Round DOWN to the nearest whole number (since rounding up could be catastrophic in this instance!), and please submit only a number with no other information.

Arrays |
2010-09-09 |

Susan pose la question :
I'm a lawyer but evidently incredibly stupid at 4th grade math. . . .Question: cover a tabletop with 9 rows of square tiles with 9 squares in each row. How many tiles cover the tabletop? Then, the paper shows a 9x9 array and asks how it is used to solve the problem. My daughter wrote 9x9=81. The next question is "what are the products of the two smaller arrays?" ???? There are no other arrays - are we to make smaller arrays from the 9x9? how?
