1 answer:

4 0

Keep Change Flip is the way to think about dividing fractions.
First- 4/6 divided by 4/12
Next- Change the division sign to multiplecation 4/6 time 4/12
Then- Flip the second number 4/6 times 12/4
Now multiply

48/24 this simplifies down to 2

Which statement best explains the relationship between

-Dominant- [34]

Answer: They are not perpendicular because their slopes are not negative reciprocals.

Step-by-step explanation:

For these two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes have to be negative reciprocals.

Slope of FG.

F = (-4, 1)

G = (0, -2)

= (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)

= (-2 - 1) / (0 + 4)

= -3/4

Slope of HJ

J = (0 , 4)

H = (-4, -2)

Slope = (Y₂ - Y₁) / (X₂ - X₁)

= (-2 - 4) / (-4 -0)

= 6/4

= 3/2

The slopes of these lines are not negative reciprocals so these lines are not perpendicular.

At the Butler Ski Resort, it snowed 1/2 of a foot yesterday and 1/5 of a foot today. How much more did it snow yesterday than to

barxatty [35]

It snowed $\frac{3}{10}$ foot more yesterday than today

Solution:

Given that, At the Butler Ski Resort, it snowed 1/2 of a foot yesterday and 1/5 of a foot today

From given information,

$\text{Snowed yesterday } = \frac{1}{2} \text{ foot }\\\\\text{Snowed today } = \frac{1}{5} \text{ foot }$

To find: how much more did it snow yesterday than today

So we have to find the difference between snowed yesterday and today

$\text{Difference} = \text{Snowed yesterday } - \text{ snowed today }\\\\\text{Difference} = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Difference} = \frac{1 \times 5}{2 \times 5}-\frac{1 \times 2}{5 \times 2}\\\\\text{Difference} = \frac{5}{10}-\frac{2}{10}\\\\\text{Difference} =\frac{3}{10}$
