Answer:

Yes, it is a rational number.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is <u>a number that can be expressed in fractional form</u>. A rational number consists of:

  • Integers - they can be expressed in form of \displaystyle{\dfrac{a}{1}} where a is an integer.
  • Fractions - obviously that they are in fractional form.
  • Repeating Decimals - they can be expressed in form of fractions as well.

Since the difference of 18 and 3 is 15 and the number 15 can be expressed as 15/1. Therefore, 15 or the difference of 18 and 3 is a rational number.

Shane has 1/2 pound of cheese to make 4 sandwiches. He wants to use the same amount of cheese in each sandwich. What fraction of
anastassius [24]

Answer:

The fraction of one pound of cheese to be used in each sandwich is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have a question that requires the method of dealing with the division of fractions.

To divide a fraction by a whole number, we multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number as follows;

\frac{x}{y} \div z =\frac{x}{y\times z}

Quantity of cheese Shane has = 1/2 pound

Number of sandwiches to be made = 4

Amount of cheese per sandwich = 1/2÷4 = 1/8.

A conveyor belt carries supplies from the first floor to the second floor, which is 26 feet higher. The belt makes a 60° angle w
tamaranim1 [39]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

30 ft; 0.4 min

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you ...

... Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Here, the angle of elevation is opposite the triangle side representing the distance between floors. The hypotenuse is the length of the conveyor belt. Rearranging the formula (by muliplying by Hypotenuse/Sin), we get ...

... Hypotenuse = Opposite/Sin

Filling in the values from this problem, we have ...

... length of conveyor = (26 ft)/sin(60°) ≈ 30 ft

The time it takes to travel that distance is given by ...

... time = distance/speed

... time = (30 ft)/(75 ft/min) = 2/5 min = 0.4 min
