5/6! Because....1 1/4 can be converted to 5/4 so then the equation would be 5/4-5/12 but when your subtracting the numbers HAVE to have the same denominator and the LCM of 4 and 12 is 12 so then the equation would be 15/12 (because when you change the denominator you also have to multiply the LCM divided by the number which would be 3 times 5) so anyyywwwaaaayyy the equation would be 15/12-5/12=10/12 which can be simplified to 5/6!!!!!!!!! And there u have it!

One and one-fourth equals to 5 over 4
5/4 times 3/3 equals to 15/12
subtract 5/12 from 15/12
the answer is 10/12
simplest form is 5/6

What is the value of cos θ given that (-2, 9) is a point on the terminal side of θ?

liq [111]

Answer:

a) cosθ = $\frac{-2\sqrt{85} }{85}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given point ( x , y ) = ( - 2 , 3 )

We know that the polar co-ordinates

x = r cos θ and y = r sinθ

where $r = \sqrt{x^{2} +y^{2} }$

$r = \sqrt{(-2)^{2} +(9)^{2} } = \sqrt{4+81} = \sqrt{85}$

Step(ii):-

x = r cos θ

cosθ $= \frac{x}{r}$

cosθ = $\frac{-2}{\sqrt{85} } = \frac{-2}{\sqrt{85} } X \frac{\sqrt{85} }{\sqrt{85} }$

cosθ = $\frac{-2\sqrt{85} }{85}$

Question: Let’s find how much percentage rate did Yolanda’s customer’s decreased over time. Solution => Saturday = 47 customers. => Monday = 20 customer. Let’s start solcing => 47 – 20 = 27 There are 27 customer that were lost over time. => 27 / 47 = 0.57 * 100 = 57% Let’s try checking our answer: => 47 * .57 = 26.79 or round off to 27, since we rounded off also our percentage.
