The ratio being 0.55 means 55% of students voted for the person who ended up winning. If there were 40 people who voted, just find 55% of 40.
This is done by 0.55 • 40, which equals 22.
So 22 students voted for the person who ended up winning.

Find the acute angle between the two given lines<br><br> y=-2x and y=x
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

θ ≈ 71.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between two lines with slopes m₁ and m₂ is:

tan θ = | (m₂ − m₁) / (1 + m₁m₂) |

Here, m₁ = -2 and m₂ = 1.

tan θ = | (1 − (-2)) / (1 + (-2)(1)) |

tan θ = | 3 / -1 |

tan θ = 3

θ ≈ 71.6°

Could someone PLEASE just HELP me with this question.
agasfer [191]

<u>Answer</u>

\frac{7}{37}


<u>Detailed Explanation </u>

To simply answer this, since .189 has three digits we are going to be inserting 999 as the denominator since it is a repeating decimal.


\frac{189}{999}


We could simplify the answer!

\frac{189}{999}


Therefore, the answer would simply be \frac{7}{37}

\frac{7}{37}


<u>Always Remember </u>

In the future, always remember whenever you have a three digit decimal and the problem asks you to convert it into a fraction, you should always insert 1000 as the denominator (the numerator is basically the decimal without the decimal point) and simplify if necessary.

Numbers 6,7,8 I can't figure out
marysya [2.9K]
6. Take your compass and place the pointed edge on point B. Place one point on each side of B, each the same distance away from B. Next, place your compass on one of the two new points and extend your compass to draw a circle. Repeat with the SAME radian from the other point. Find where the two circles intersect with each other and draw a line from the points of intersection to point B. Place point A anywhere on that line that you just created and then you're done!

7. Select any place along either line and place point S on it. Next, using the same method as above, draw two circles with the same radius around both points S and R. Draw a line through the intersection points. Locate the intersection where your new line connects with the line across from the shared line of RS. Place a point at the intersection, for your reference, then connect that point to point S. Now you have completed this problem as well.

8. Use a straight edge to draw one line. Place points A and B on each end. Use the circle method yet again to find a line perpendicular to line AB. Next, take your compass and set it to the distance from point A to B. Use that same distance to make a point on the perpendicular line. This creates point C. The final step is to connect A with C and B with C.
