42/48
Simply divide, so, 42/2 = 21, and 48/2 = 24
21/3 = 7, and 24/3 = 8
7/8 = 42/48

Simplified form would be : 7/8

Easy, find a number you can divide 42 and 48 by, which is 6.

\frac{42}{48}÷\frac{6}{6}

42/6=7

48/6=8

So, \frac{42}{48} simplified is, \frac{7}{8}.

How do you solve this??

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi Millie.

First we can realize that the number of cubes of each type does not matter, only the ratios between them. We see that if there are x yellow cubes, there are 3x blue cubes. And therefore, there are 5*3x green cubes, or 15x green cubes. This means that the cubes are in a 1:3:15 ratio, or that for every 1 yellow cube, there are 3 blue and 15 green cubes.

Now we can find the probability of picking a yellow cube. Since there are 18 non-yellow cubes for every yellow cube, this means that there is a 1/19 possibility of picking a yellow cube.

If g(x) is a linear function such that g(-3) = 2 and g(1) = -4, find g(7).
eimsori [14]
<h3>Answer:   -13</h3>

=======================================

Explanation:

g(-3) = 2 means x = -3 and y = 2 pair up together to form the point (-3,2)

g(1) = -4 means we have the point (1,-4)

Find the slope of the line through the two points (-3,2) and (1,-4)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-4-2)/(1-(-3))

m = (-4-2)/(1+3)

m = -6/4

m = -3/2

m = -1.5

The general slope intercept form y = mx+b turns into y = -1.5x+b after replacing m with -1.5

Plug in (x,y) = (-3,2) which is one of the points mentioned earlier and we end up with this new equation:  2 = -1.5*(-3) + b

Let's solve for b

2 = -1.5*(-3)+b

2 = 4.5 + b

2-4.5 = 4.5+b-4.5 .... subtract 4.5 from both sides

-2.5 = b

b = -2.5

Therefore, y = mx+b becomes y = -1.5x-2.5 meaning the g(x) function is g(x) = -1.5x-2.5

The last step is to plug in x = 7 and compute

g(x) = -1.5*x - 2.5

g(7) = -1.5*7 - 2.5

g(7) = -10.5 - 2.5

g(7) = -13

Are they unique more than one or no triangle
Tanya [424]
The measures of the angles of a triangle add to 180.

45 + 45 + 90 = 180
The measures of these three angles do add to 180, ,so there is at least one triangle with these angle measures.
Using AA triangle similarity, any triangle with the same angle measures will be similar.

From the figure you already see two triangles with angles 45-45-90. There is an infinite number of triangles with those angle measures.
