Answer:
US= 24
Step-by-step explanation:
B is the mid point of the diagonal which means that to get US you would add VS which is 12 and you get 24
Answer:
20.2 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be described by the three sides of a right angled triangle. Let the distance of the glider to the airport be represented by x, applying the Pythagoras theorem:
= 
+ 
= 
+ 
576 = 
+ 169
= 576 - 169
= 407
x = 
= 20.1742
x = 20.2 miles
The glider has to fly 20.2 miles to return to the airport.
Answer:
14 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution set:
x+y=22
4x=7y
Solving:
4(22-y)=7y
88-4y=7y
88=11y
8=y
8+14=22
Step-by-step explanation:
By Law of Indices, a^m / a^n = a^(m-n).
Therefore a² / a⁸ = a^(-6).
x = -6.
First, we know that when multiplying fractions, we multiply both the numerator and denominator.
so, in 4/9 • 4/5,
4•4 = 16, and
9•5 = 45
so, 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45.
now, we’ll look for the Least Common Factor
factors are numbers that you can multiply together to = another number.
the LEAST common Factor is the # that is smallest that you can divide both numbers by, in an equation and get a whole number.
for instance, 3•3 and 1•9 are the only ways to get 9, so, the factors are 1, 3, 9
let’s look for the LCF in 16 and 45. -
if we find the ways to get 16, we have:
1•16, 2•8, and 4•4
so, the factors are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
this is called FACTORING :)
the ways to get 45 are...
1•45, 3•15, and 5•9, so the FACTORS are
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, & 45.
- compare the factors of 16 & 45,
none of them are the same besides 1, and we know that dividing these numbers by 1 will not do anything.
because of this, we can not reduce 16/45, so the reduced answer to 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45
