Answer:

The decimal is 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor (GCF) of 1 and 8 is 1. Convert 1/8 to its simplest form by dividing the numerator and denominator by its GCF and you get

1/1=1

formula : Area of parrallelogram  = Length of base x height

Given: Area of parallelogram = 300 square kilometers

height = 20 kilometers

Substituting values in the formula , we get

300 = Length of base x 20

Length of base  = \frac{300}{20}

Solve the equation for y. 4x - 5y = 9
babymother [125]

Answer:

y = (4x - 9) / 5 or y = 4/5x - 9/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for y

4x - 5y = 9

-5y = -4x + 9

5y = 4x - 9

y = (4x - 9) / 5 or y = 4/5x - 9/5

What happens to the energy not output by a machine​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

By using the energy conservation law, the input energy must be equivalent to the output energy.  If you measured output energy is lower than your input energy, you have lost that difference of energy either in mechanical inefficiency (friction, heat, etc.) or an energy sink.

Thus, the energy not output by the machine is lost in the process within the machine.

Cheers.
