Answer: If you multiply a number by a fraction less than 1, the resulting product will be smaller than the original fraction.

Imagine, if you had half a pizza and you ate one-half of that. You would multiply 1/2 by 1/2 and get an even smaller number. The result would be 1/4.

On the other hand, if you multiply a number by a mixed number that is larger than one, the result would be larger than when you started.

How many solutions does the system have? \begin{cases} 3x+y=8 \\\\ 2x+2y=8 \end{cases} ⎩ ⎪ ⎪ ⎨ ⎪ ⎪ ⎧ ​ 3x+y=8 2x+2y=8 ​ Choose 1
ELEN [110]

Answer:

This system has one solution (x=2 and y=2), then the answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is:

3x+y=8 (1)

2x+2y=8 (2)

Let's multiply the first equation by 2 and subtract it to the second equation  

6x-2x+2y-2y=16-8

4x=8  

x=2

Using this value in (1) we can find y.

3(2)+y=8

6+y=8

y=2

Therefore, this system has one solution (x=2 and y=2), the answer is A.

I hope it helps you!

Find in the triangle. Round to the nearest degree.<br> a.<br> 45°<br> C. 60°<br> b. 59°<br> d. 42°
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Theta = 59 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of the marked angle

To do this, we use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

From what we have,

The side 42 ft is adjacent the angle given

The side facing the right angle is 82 ft

The trigonometric ratio that connects the adjacent and the hypotenuse is cosine. It is the ratio of the adjacent to the hypotenuse

Cos theta = 42/82

theta = cos^-1 0.5122

theta= 59.189

To the nearest degrees, this is 59 degrees

Which expression is a factor of 9x^2-4x+1 ( ps ^2 is an exponent)
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The discriminant b2−4ac < 0, the equation has no real number solutions, it has complex solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² - 4x + 1 = 0     ax² + bx + c = 0

The discriminant: b² - 4ac = (-4)² - 4*9*1 = 16 - 36 = -20

b2−4ac < 0, the equation has no real number solutions, it has complex solutions

A square has sides of length 8 inches. To the nearest tenth of an inch, what is the length of its diagonal?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
I might be wrong, but I think it is 8.
I think it’s 8 because all side lengths are equal in a square, meaning if one side length is 8 all the other side lengths are going to be 8 also.
