if you divide 7 into 9 you get the decimal of the fraction. so 7 divided by 9 is 0.777777778
Answer:
Tawanna should have used each common factor once.
Step-by-step explanation:
Tawanna is asked to find the GCF of each term in the expression 2 a b + 8 b.
Factors of 2ab: 1, 2, a, and b
Factors of 8b: 1, 2, 4, 8, and b
GCF: (1) (1) (2) (2) (b) (b)
GCF = Greatest common factor
She has calculated the GCF incorrectly as she should use each common factor once only. But she has taken all the common factors twice which is wrong.
Hence, the error in Tawanna’s solution is that "Tawanna should have used each common factor once.". Hence, the correct option is (c).

Answer:
b=8.5cm
Step-by-step explanation:
tanx (this represents tan theta, it's just easier to type) is equal to 0.6 and since the tanx ratio is opp/adj, we know that opp/adj = 0.6
To find what b is (adjacent as it is adjacent to the angle being used and it is not the hypotenuse), we just have to rearrange.
0.6=5.1/adj
to solve for adj, we can switch 0.6 and adj. (This works because to get adj by itself on one side you would multiply it to the other side and then divide 0.6 from both sides --> simple algebra)
so then you have
adj=5.1/0.6
adj=8.5cm
(if you want to check your solution you can use pythagoeran theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2) and sub everything in and make sure all the numbers equal the right thing!
