(a) = 0.32 or 8/25

(b) = 0.48 or 12/25

(c) = 4 Boards

Step-by-step explanation:

(a):

0.8 x 2/5

8/10 x 4/10

(8 x 4) / (10 x 10)

(32) / (100)

0.32 or 8/25

(b):

0.8 x 3/5

8/10 x 6/10

(8 x 6) / (10 x 10)

(48) / (100)

0.48 or 12/25

(c):

0.8 x 5

8/10 x 50/10

(8 x 50) / (10 x 10)

(400) / (100)

How many 1/8-inch pieces of ribbon can be cut from a piece of ribbon that is 3/4 inch long? It can't be a fraction, sadly :')
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

6 pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 divided by 1/8

= 3/4 / 1/8        

Invert the 1/8 and multiply:

= 3/4 * 8/1

= 24/4

= 6.

Create a set of coordinates to model a relation that is linear function.
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The following points (coordinates) lie on a straight line with slope 3:

(1, 0), (2, 3), (3, 6), (4, 9) ... and so on

So the linear function is y = 3x + b, where b is the y-intercept.

A right triangle has coordinates A(6, 0), B(0, 0), and C(0, 8). What is the perimeter of the triangle?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given coordinates

A(6, 0), B(0, 0) then AB = 6 - 0 = 6

B(0, 0), C(0, 8) then BC = 8 - 0 = 8

To calculate AC use Pythagoras' theorem on the right triangle formed

AC² = AB² + BC² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100

Take the square root of both sides, hence

AC = \sqrt{100} = 10

Perimeter = AB + BC + AC = 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 → C
