A rational number can be put into a fraction form.
A percent, such as 50% can be put into fraction form.

50% = 0.5 = 1/2

By definition, we have:

Rational number is any number that can be represented as the quotient of two whole numbers or, more precisely, an integer and a positive natural.

For the case of percentages, we must always divide by 100 to convert it into a number.

For example, 50% written as a number is:

50% = 50/100

Answer:

Percentages are rational numbers because they must always be divided by 100 to become a number.

Three houses are mapped on a coordinate grid.
Licemer1 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the task to find the angle between vectors ES and EJ (the first letters are taken to name the vectors).

\overrightarrow{ES} = (4;4) - (4; -3) = \overrightarrow{(0; 7)}

ES

=(4;4)−(4;−3)=

(0;7)

​

\overrightarrow{EJ} = (-5; -4) - (4; -3) = \overrightarrow{(-9; -1)}

EJ

=(−5;−4)−(4;−3)=

(−9;−1)

​

cos \alpha=\frac{\overrightarrow{ES}*\overrightarrow{EJ}}{|\overrightarrow{EJ}|*|\overrightarrow{ES}|}cosα=

∣

EJ

∣∗∣

ES

∣

ES

∗

EJ

​

cos(a) = (0*(-9)+7*(-1)) / (7*9.055) = -0.11043;

a = 96,34°

Solution: 96 degrees.

lower bound = 90 - 10 = 80 cm

upper bound = 90 + 10 = 100 cm

lower bound d = 1500 x 80 cm = 120,000 cm

upper bound d = 1500 x 100 cm = 150,000 cm

I like dogs but this question is a hard one.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Work below

Step-by-step explanation:

49 total dogs.

36 more small dogs.

13 big dogs.

lol just realized today's school has sh*t wording and this question can be taken TWO ways. 36 more as in, 36 more dogs in total or 36 more small dogs than large dogs adding the amount of large dogs with this. this gives us 49.

the only way to get the x value (large dogs) and add this on top of the 36 (small dogs) and get 49 is to do 6.5 + 42.5 (36 + 6.5) this gives us 49.

Thanks guy in the comments for giving the second response, after some thinking i realized that i could also read it that way.

F** k today's hw and their wording

(8m-3n)^2 - (4m+3n)^2​
natulia [17]

Answer:

48m^2-72mn

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve (8m-3n)^2 - (4m+3n)^2

We know that,

(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab\\\\(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab

Using the above formula,

(8m-3n)^2 - (4m+3n)^2=(8m)^2+(3n)^2-2(8m)(3n)-[(4m)^2+(3n)^2+2(4m)(3n)]\\\\=64m^2+9n^2-48mn-(16m^2+9n^2+24mn)\\\\=64m^2+9n^2-48mn-16m^2-9n^2-24mn\\\\=48m^2-48mn-24mn\\\\=48m^2-72mn

So, the final answer is 48m^2-72mn.
