3. Noah is playing a game where he must spin two wheels, each with 9 equal slices. There are 3 red slices, 3 green slices, 2 blue slices and 1 yellow slice on each wheel. If Noah spins and lands on a yellow slice on both wheels he wins, but if he lands on any other color, he loses. This information was used to create the following area model.

Is this a fair game? Why or why not?
No, the game is not fair because Noah does not have equal probabilities of winning or losing.
No, the game is not fair because Noah has equal probabilities of winning or losing.
Yes, the game is fair because Noah has equal probabilities of winning or losing.
Yes, the game is fair because Noah does not have equal probabilities of winning or losing.

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.

twenty-six miles over two gallons because the proportion for the original 13 miles to one gallon would be written 13/1 and, doing the same thing to the top and bottom, i multiplied by 2 and got 26/2

answers

\3. yes the presentation (i.e. odd numbers being written as differences of two squares) is possible for all odd natural number however the presentation may not be unique. for example,  57=112−82=292−28257=112−82=292−282.

\4. 2 can't be written as a difference of two squares because 4-1=3 and 1-1=0 and the difference of squares grows to integers larger that 3.

can i get some in proving questions 1 and 2?
