So you have to double the numerator of the fraction which is 4 times 2 equals 8 so it’s 8/5 miles per hour or 1.6 mph

Express 0.6 as a fraction.

ollegr [7]

Answer: 3/5

Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.6 is 6 tenths. So we can write 0.6 as the fraction 6/10.

Notice however that 6/10 is not in lowest terms.

So we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 10 which is 2.

So if we divide the numerator and denominator by 2, we get 3/5.

So 0.6 can be written as the fraction 3/5 which is in lowest terms.

Answer:

$m=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the diagram

$tan(\theta)=\frac{m}{1/2}=2m$

$tan(\theta)=\sqrt{3}$

Equate

$2m=\sqrt{3}$

$m=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Use the distance formula to find the distance, to the nearest tenth, from S(5,-4) to W(-3,7)

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Distance (d) =13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

$d=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}\\\\(5,-4)=(x_1,y_1)\\(-3,7)=(x_2,y_2)\\\\d=\sqrt{\left(-3-5\right)^2+\left(7-\left(-4\right)\right)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(7+4)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(11)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{64+121}\\\\d=\sqrt{185} \\\\d = 13.60147\dots \\\\\\d =13.6$
