5/9 is closer to 1

Hope this helps!

It is closer to 1/2 because half of 9 is 4.5 so 5/9 is just .5 away from 1/2 rather than being 4 away from 1

D is halfway between A and B

so the coordinates of D are (2,2)

E is halfway between A and C so the coordinates of E are (-1,1)

now you need to find the gradient/slope of DE and BC using the formula:

$\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

<h3>Gradient of DE: </h3>

SUB IN COORDINATES OF D AND E

$\frac{1 - 2}{ - 1 - 2}$

therefore the gradient of DE is 1/3.

<h3>Gradient of BC:</h3>

SUB IN COORDINATES OF B AND C

 $\frac{ - 2 - 0}{ - 3 - 3}$ 

therefore the gradient of BC is -2/-6 which simplifies to 1/3.

<h3>therefore, BC and DE are parallel as they both have a gradient/slope of 1/3 and parallel lines have the same gradient</h3>

You have checked model income statements and estimate your payroll expense will be 36% of revenue. You expect sales to be $9,000

aksik [14]

Answer:

Budget annual payroll = $168,480

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Expect sales per week = $9,000

Revenue over sales = 36% = 0.36

Find:

Budget annual payroll = ?

Computation:

Assume number of week per year = 52

⇒ Budget annual payroll = Expect sales per week × Number of week per year × Revenue over sales

⇒ Budget annual payroll = $9,000 × 52 × 0.36

⇒ Budget annual payroll = $168,480

Find the prime factorization for the number m (if possible) that makes each of the following true. If no number is possible, exp

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Is not possible to find a prime factorization for m.

Step-by-step explanation:

$2^3 . 19^5 . 23^4 = 2^3 . 19^5 . 46 . m$

then

$m=\frac{2^3. 19^5 . 23^4}{2^3 . 19^5 . 46 }=\frac{2^3. 19^5 . 23^4}{2^3 . 19^5 . 2.23 }=\frac{23^3}{2}$

So m is not an integer, hence it cannot be decomposed in prime factors.
