In order to know how much of the 3/8 is in the 1/4, you calculate the quotient between 1/4 and 3/8, just as follow:

1/4 ÷ 3/8

you can convert the previous quotient into a multiplication by inverting the second fraction:

1/4 ÷ 3/8 = (1/4) x (8/3) = 8/12 = 2/3

Hence, 2/3 is what 3/8 is in 1/4

Answer:

x=36

Step-by-step explanation:

First rewrite equation then multiply each side by 36. 9x-36=4x+144.

then move the variable 9x-4x+36=144. Next subtract 9x and 4x ...5x=144+36.... 5x=180. Lastly you divide 180÷5 this your answer x=36

Which methods could you use to calculate the y-coordinate of the midpointof a vertical line segment with endpoints at (0,0) and

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

y-coordinate of midpoint of line segment joining the endpoints (0,0) and (0,15) is 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two end points of line segment that are (0,0) and (0,15). If we have to find the y-coordinate of midpoint of a vertical line segment then we apply mid point formula.

The Midpoint formula is used when one is need to find the exact center point between two given points.

The mid point M of line segment $A(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $B(x_{2},y_{2})$ can be calculated as

$M(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})$

Mid point of line joining the end points (0,0) and (0,15) is

$M(\frac{0+0}{2},\frac{0+15}{2})$ =M(0,7.5)

Hence, y-coordinate of midpoint of line segment joining the endpoints (0,0) and (0,15) is 7.5
