The answer would be 2\8 but you have to divide them by 2 and get 1\4 hope this helps

Solve using the KCF Method (Keep, Change, Flip)

1/8 / 1/2
1/8 stays the same
= 1/8 x 1/2
Change the division sign into multiplication
= 1/8 x 2/1
Flip 1/2 so it can be 2/1
= 2/8
Multiply as you would. (Numerator x Numerator, Denominator x Denominator)
= 1/4
Simplified

The equation of best fit is y = (-22/5)x + 10.

What is an equation of a line?

The equation of a line is given by:

y = mx + c where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

Example:

The slope of the line y = 2x + 3 is 2.

The slope of a line that passes through (1, 2) and (2, 3) is 1.

We have,

The following coordinates are given:

Pick two coordinates.

(0, 10) and (25, -100)

The equation of best fit.

y = mx + c

Now,

m = (-100 - 10) / (25 - 0)

m = -110 / 25

m = -22/5

Now,

(0, 10) = (x, y)

10 = (-22/5) x 0 + c

c = 10

Now,

y = mx + c

y = (-22/5)x + 10

Thus,

Using the coordinates the equation of best fit is y = (-22/5)x + 10.

Compute the following radical.<br> sq root 144

lara31 [8.8K]

we are given

$\sqrt{144}$

Firstly, we will find all possible factors of 144

$144=2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 3\times 3$

we can also write as

$144=(2\times 2)^2\times (3)^2$

now, we can put exponent to over entire term

$144=(2\times 2\times 3)^2$

now, we can replace 144

$\sqrt{144}=\sqrt{(2\times 2\times 3)^2}$

now, sqrt will get cancelled with square

and we get

$\sqrt{144}=(2\times 2\times 3)$

now, we can simplify it

$\sqrt{144}=(4\times 3)$

$\sqrt{144}=12$ .............Answer

An electrician needs to cut a 49 m piece of wire into two pieces so that one piece is 5 m longer than the other piece. What is t

gulaghasi [49]

The length of the shorter wire that the electrician cuts so that the difference between those two is of 5 m is 22.5.

Given to us

An electrician needs to cut a 49 m piece of wire into two pieces so that one piece is 5 m longer than the other piece.

<h3>What are the two equal parts of the wire?</h3>

We know that the length of the wire is 49 m, therefore, to cut the wire in two equal parts divide the total length of the wire by two,

$\dfrac{49}{2} = 24.5$

Thus, the length of each side will be 24.5.

<h3>What is the length of the shorter piece of wire?</h3>

Since we need to cut the wire such that one side of the wire is 5 less than the other, we already know the length of the equal sides deduct (5/2) from both sides to create a difference between the length of the wire.

Length of the shorter wire = 24.5 -2.5 = 22.5

Length of the longer wire = 22.5 + 5 = 27.5

Hence, the length of the shorter wire that the electrician cuts so that the difference between those two is of 5 m is 22.5.

Find the value for the variable expression p + 5 when p = 2.

sweet [91]

Replace all the variables with their values. In this case, we know the value of the variable p.

Now the expressions p + 5 becomes 2 + 5.

2 + 5 = 7

So, C. 7 is the answer.

-5x - 8y = 17<br> 2x - 7y = -17

Mrac [35]

Answer:

x = -5

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x - 8y = 17

x = -5

y = 1

2x - 7y = -17

x = -5

y = 1
