4/5 - 1/2 =

3/10 in exact form

0.3 in decimal form

When subtracting a fraction, you always have to make sure your denominator/divisor's are the same.

Therefore you would find the Least Common Multiple of 5 and 2

Both would eventually come to 10, multiplying 4/5 by 2 on both the numerator and the denominator

Do the same with 1/2 except you multiply this one by 5 on both the numerator and the denominator.

Your fractions would then be  8/10 and 5/10

Then you subtract

8/10 - 5/10 = 3/10

(The Denominator does not change after all this)

Hope this helps :)

3/10 you cross multiply 5x2=10 so the denominator will be 10 and then cross multiply the numberators by the different denominator make sense? so 5x 1=5 and that mean 1/2=5/10 and 4/5=8/10 and the final answer when u subtract is 3/10 makes sense? u know what i mean jelly bean?

a volley ball player servers the ball. The ball follows a path given by the equation y=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3 where x and y are measure
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

(a)

Distance from player should be 13.82 feet or 36.2 feet

(b)

The ball will go over the net

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

The ball follows a path given by the equation

y=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3

where

x and y are measured in feet and the origin is on the court directly below where the player hits the ball

(a)

net height is 8 ft

so, we can set y=8

and then we can solve for x

8=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3

8\cdot \:100=-0.01x^2\cdot \:100+0.5x\cdot \:100+3\cdot \:100

800=-x^2+50x+300

-x^2+50x-500=0

x^2-50x+500=0

we can use quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

x=\frac{-50\pm \sqrt{50^2-4\left(-1\right)\left(-500\right)}}{2\left(-1\right)}

x=5\left(5-\sqrt{5}\right),\:x=5\left(5+\sqrt{5}\right)

x=13.82,x=36.2

So, distance from player should be 13.82 feet or 36.2 feet

(b)

we can plug x=30 and check whether y=8 ft

y=-0.01(30)^2+0.5(30)+3

y=9ft

we know that

height of net is 8 ft

so, the ball will go over the net

The angle rule of corresponding angles states that the corresponding angles are equal if a transversal cuts two parallel lines.

In this example, lines m and l are two parallel lines

line n cuts through both, making every other angle corresponding and congruent, etc...

Quadrilateral ABCD is shown. If m angles?
artcher [175]

Answer: m∠BCE = 63°

              m∠BAD = 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 1:

Given

m∠BEC = 90°

m∠EBC = 27°

Total = 117°

Solution:

Subtract 180° - 117° = m∠BCE = 63°

Problem 2:

Given

m∠ADE = 52°

m∠ABE = 52°

Total = 104°

Solution:

Subtract 180° - 104° = m∠BAD = 76°
