What is the product of 2/3 and 4/5?

2 answers:

8 0

Well, product means multiply so we need to multiply these fractions.

2 4
--- x --- =
3 5

now, when you are multipliying fractions you multiply the top and the bottom with the other one.
so 2 times 4 and 3 times 5
and you get
8
--
15

since this fraction can not be simplifyed this is the final answer 8/15

2/3 x 4/5

1) Use the rule: ab×cd=acbd
. $\frac{2*4}{3*5}$

2) Simplify 2×4 to 8
$\frac{8}{3*5}$

3) Simplify 3×5 to 15
$\frac{8}{15}$

Answer = $\frac{8}{15}$

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

Crank

Answer:

D) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by

$(n - 2) \times 180$

We have that, the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

26 right angles. We want to find n, the number of sides.

We substitute into the formula to get:

$(n - 2) \times 180 = 26 \times 90$

Divide through by 90

$2(n - 2) = 26$

Divide through by 2

$n - 2 = 13$

$n = 13 + 2$

$n = 15$

Find the x-intercept of the parabola of with vertex (1,20) and the y-intercept (0,16). write your answer in this form: (x1,y1),(

svetoff [14.1K]

I assume that the parabola in this particular problem is one whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y axis. The formula we're going to use in this case is (x-h)2=4p(y-k). We know variables h and k from the vertex (1,20) but p is not given. However, we can solve for p by substituting values x and y in the formula with the y-intercept:

(0-1)^2=4p(16-20)

Solving for p, p=-1/16.

Going back to the formula, we can finally solve for the x-intercepts. Simply fill in variables p, h and k then set y to zero:

(x-1)^2=4(-1/16)(0-20)
(x-1)^2=5
x-1=(+-)sqrt(5)
x=(+-)sqrt(5)+1

Here, we have two values of x

x=sqrt(5)+1 and
x=-sqrt(5)+1

thus, the answers are: (sqrt(5)+1,0) and (-sqrt(5)+1,0).

A farmer has enough feed to last his 15pigs for 20days. How long would the feed last if he had 10pigs

ddd [48]

40/3 days, (13.33 days)

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation, 15/20 = 10/x, and then use cross mutiply to solve it.

10 * 20 = 15x, x = 200/15 = 40/3

Why?

b/c if each pig eats the same amount of food, then the ratio between the number of pigs and days should remain constant.
