1 answer:
ioda2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1.

-9 11/15

2. 11/24

3.

34/45

4. -5.05

5. -0.622

Step-by-step explanation:

1. -2 4/5 - 6 2/15

convert them to a common denominator and an improper fraction:

-2 4/5= 18/5=- 54/15 -6 2/15= 92/ 15

*15 is the other denominator, so you keep the numbers in the second number the same*

subtract: -54/15- 92/15

since you are subtracting a negative number it goes farther away from zero

-146/15 or -9 11/15

2. -5/12 + 7/8

convert them to a common denominator

-5/12=- 20/48 7/8= 35/40

add: -20/48+35/40

11/24

since you are adding a negative number it goes closer to zero or past zero:

3. 3 3/5 x 2/9

convert 3 3/5 to an improper fraction: 18/5

mulitply the two denominators and the two numerators

17/5 x 2/9= 34/45

This is also the simplest form.

4. Convert to a decimal. -5 1/20

keep the -5 beacuse that is a whole number

divide 1/20 to turn it to a decimal to get 0.05

5. Which number is the largest? -0.65, -0.622, -5/8

to find this you would have to convert all numbers to either a decimal or a fraction.

5/8 is 0.625

the one closest to zero is the largest which is -0.622

What is the solution to the system of equations?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-4, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations have the same coefficient for y, so you can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here the x coefficient is largest for the first equation, so it will work best to subtract the second equation.

  (3x +y) -(2x +y) = (3) -(7)

  x = -4 . . . . . . . . simplify

Now, we can find y by substituting this value for x.

  2(-4) +y = 7

  y = 7 +8 = 15 . . . . . add 8 to both sides of the equation

The solution is (x, y) = (-4, 15).

Suppose you cut a square into two identical triangles what type of triangles will you make
Basile [38]

Answer:

Right angled isosceles triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

To cut a square into identical triangle one  need   to draw a diagonal for the square.

Suppose ABCD is the square then AC is one diagonal.

The two triangles will be

ABC and ADC

ABC has sides AB , BC and AC

ADC has sides AD, DC, AC

Since ABCD is a square its sides AB, BC , CD , DA are equal hence

for triangle ABC and ADC

side AB , BC and AD, DC will be equal

also AC is common side hence third side of both triangle is also equal .

Hence  ABC and ADC are identical triangle.

___________________________________________

for  triangle ABC

two sides are same in length and third is different

for triangle ABC,  AB =  BC but AC is not equal to AB and AC

and angle ABC is right angled as it angle of square

As two sides are equal and one angle is right angled  

hence triangle ABC is right angled isosceles triangle

_______________________________________

for  triangle ADC

two sides are same in length and third is different

for triangle ADC,  AD= DC  but AC is not equal to AD and DC

and angle ADC is right angled as it angle of square

As two sides are equal and one angle is right angled

therefore triangle ADC is right angled isosceles triangle

_________________________________________________

To understand the solution we need to draw square ABCD and diagonal AC to have better visual understanding of solution.

Given the regular octagon shown below, what is the measure of angle x?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

x=45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle shown in the figure is known as an external angle.

Also, <u>in a regular polygon (like the regular octagon) the sum of all the exterior angles is the same regardless of the number of sides of the figure</u>:

360°

And to find the measure of a single external angle (such as the angle x shown in the figure) we must <u>divide 360 ° by the number of sides n:</u>

\frac{360}{n}

and for the regular octagon, since it has 8 sides:

n=8

so the value of x is:

x=\frac{360}{n}\\ \\x=\frac{360}{8}\\ \\x=45°

the measure of angle x is 45° which is the second option
