Write the following decimal number in its equivalent fraction form. Show all work for full credit.

1 answer:

8 0

<span>Let x=0.8888...

x=0.8888 Start with the given equation

10x=8.8888 Multiply both sides by 10. The goal is to move the decimal point to the next repeating portion (which is just one spot to the right)

Now subtract the equation x=0.8888 from 10x=8.8888 to get
10x-x=8.8888-0.8888

9x=8 Combine like terms. Notice how the decimal portions cancel out.

x=8/9 Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x

So the answer is x=8/9 which means that 8/9=0.8888 (where the 8's repeat)</span>

A submarine was traveling along the surface of the ocean and decides to dive. If the dive angle is 28° with the horizontal surfa

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

1.5 nautical miles

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram.

The submarine starts to dive at point A and diving along AB.

If the distance traveled underwater i.e. AB = 1.7 Nautical miles and C is the point directly above its current position at B.

Then Δ ABC is a right triangle having ∠ BAC = 28° {Given}

So, using trigonometry we can write

$\cos 28 = \frac{AC}{AB} = \frac{AC}{1.7}$

⇒ $AC = 1.7 \times \cos 28 = 1.5$ nautical miles.

Therefore, the surface distance that the submarine travels is 1.5 nautical miles. (Answer)

Area of equilateral triangle = a^2/4 * √3 so side of triangle = a

but if area of equilateral triangle = area of square multiplied by √3 then area of square = a^2 / 4 so side of square = a/2

the ratio length of side triangle to length side of square = a: a/2 that means the side of triangle is doubled the side of square

answer
a) 2:1
