Can someone tell me how to do this? I probably learned this but fractions are really confusing...

So,

17/3 is an improper fraction.

We can immediately see that there are more that 5 3's in the fraction. That uses 15 "3's".
There are 2 more thirds, so the mixed form is

5 2/3

5 2/3 is less than 8, so that is the answer.

A line tangent to a circle and a radius of the same circle intersect at the point of tangency to create an angle of what measure

aliya0001 [1]

A theorem states that, given a circle with center C and a point P on the circumference, the tangent line through P and the radius CP are perpendicular.

So, the answer is 90 degrees.

An angle is double its complement. find the angle and the complement

Alona [7]

Complement means the other angle that will sum up to 90°

So:

x + 2x = 90°
3x = 90
x = 30°

So, it is 30° and 30 * 2°, or 60°

Phil has two rectangular prisms. The height of the second prism is 1/2 times the height of the first prism. The lengths and widt

Vesnalui [34]

The volume of the second prism is also ten times the volume of the first prism.

Let's assume that both prisms have:

width = 3 units

height = 4 units

Prism 1 length = 5 units

Prism 2 length = 50 units

Let's solve their respective volumes to compare...

Volume of prism 1 = length * width * height

= 5 * 3 * 4

= 60 units ^3

Volume of prism 2 = 50 * 3 * 4

= 600 units ^3

Prism 2/ prism 1 = 10

That means prism 2 is ten times the volume of prism 1.

Answer as many as you can please (write in slope-intercept form)

RoseWind [281]

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one, we are already given our slope. All we need to do is find the y-intercept, b.

y=-2x+b

6=-2(-3)+b

6=6+b

b=0

The slope-intercept form is y=-2x.

For the second one, we need to first find the slope using $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ .

$m=\frac{1-13}{3-(-6)} =\frac{-12}{9}$

Now that we have our slope, we can plug it into our slope-intercept form to solve for b.

$y=-\frac{12}{9} x+b$

$3=-\frac{12}{9}(1)+b$

$-\frac{9}{4} =b$

The slope-intercept form is $y=-\frac{12}{9} -\frac{9}{4}$ .

For the third one, we are already given the slope, so all we have to do is find b.

$y=-\frac{1}{2}x +b$

$-7=-\frac{1}{2} (-4)+b$

$-7=2+b$

$-9=b$

The slope-intercept form is $y=-\frac{1}{2} x-9$ .

For the last one, we need to first find the slope using $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ .

$m=\frac{-8-2}{3-1}=\frac{-10}{2} =-5$

Now that we have our slope, we can plug it into our slope-intercept form and find b.

$y=-5x+b$

$2=-5(1)+b$

$2=-5+b$

$7=b$

Our slope-intercept form is $y=-5x+7$ .
