To round you must see if the fraction is greater or less than a half to see if you round up or down. 1/8 is less than 1/2, so you must round down. So the answer is 5.

You look at the fraction: 1/8
You determine if it's closer to 0, 0.5, or 1.
In this case it is closer to 0.
So the answer would be 5.

Plot three points that solve the equation -x-2y=-10
Neko [114]

Answer:

See the attachment for a plot

Step-by-step explanation:

I find it convenient to plot lines using their x- and y-intercepts, when those are integers. To find the intercepts, we can divide the equation by the constant on the right:

x/10 +y/5 = 1

This is "intercept form". The denominator in each term is the corresponding intercept:

the x-intercept is 10, point (10, 0)

the y-intercept is 5, point (0, 5)

We can choose another value of y to find a third solution. Let y=2. Then we have ...

-x -2(2) = -10 . . . . . put 2 for y in the original equation

-x = -6 . . . . . . . . . . add 4

x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by -1

A third point is (6, 2)

A shape is made of 12 right triangles of equal size each right triangle has a base of 4 centimeters and a height a 5-cm what is
mart [117]

Answer:

120\ cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A_t) of a triangle is equal to half the product of its length (L) because of its height (h).

A_t = 0.5h*L

The base of the triangles is L = 4\ cm

The height of the triangles is h = 5\ cm

Then the area of one of the triangles is:

A_t = 0.5(4)(5)\\A_t = 10\ cm^2

The figure is formed by 12 equal triangles, then the area of the figure (A_f) is:

A_f = 12(A_t)\\A_f = 12(10)\\A_f = 120\ cm^2
