The distributive property
B) 12 inches would be the most accurate measurement.
Since the ruler is exactly 1 foot long, the most accurate measurement is 12 inches. 12.005 is a tempting answer, since it is the most specific/exact, but 12 inches is the most accurate, since this is equal to exactly one foot.
Step-by-step explanation:
(1 - cos²A) (1 + tan²A) = tan²A
(sin²A)(sec²A) = tan²A
(sin²A)(1/cos²A) = tan²A
(sin²A)/(cos²A) = tan²A
tan²A = tan²A → <u>Proved</u>
Answer:
16.4
Step-by-step explanation:
To decrease a number by 45% of its value, you subtract the 45%. To get 45%, you multiply the number by 0.45.
So, if x is the original number, then the equation for this word problem would be x - 0.45x = 9.
To solve, we first subtract 0.45x from x, which is 0.55x. This means that 0.55x is equal to 9. To simplify, we can divide both sides by 0.55. 9/0.55 is 16.36363636..., etc. The nearest tenth would be 0.4, so your answer is 16.4
