The last pair of numbers bracket the point 3/7.

12/32 = 3/8 < 3/7

15/18 = 5/6 > 3/7

_____

3/7 ≈ 0.428571... (repeating), so will be larger than 3/8 = 0.375, 12/32 = 3/8, and 4/10. That is, 3/7 is larger than the largest number of each pair except the last.

------

You can always compare two fractions to see which is larger by cross-multiplying. That is a/b vs c/d gives the same result as ad vs bc. (Put the product on the numerator side of the comparison.)

Here, that would mean comparing 12/32 vs 3/7, we would get 12·7 vs 3·32, or 84 vs 96. The fraction on the left is smaller.

Comparing 3/7 vs 15/18, we would get 3·18 vs 7·15, or 54 vs 105. The fraction on the right is larger.

Please help thanks in advance
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

43.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sides DF and FE are congruent, their opposite angles D and E are also congruent.

m<D + m<E + m<F = 180

x + x + 93.5 = 180

2x = 86.5

x = 43.25

Answer: 43.25

The circumference of Tyler's bike tire is 72 inches. What is the diameter of the tire?​
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The diameter is 22.92 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this question

in this case we know the circumference of a circle, and we need to find out the diameter.

let's remember

the radius of a circle can be defined as

radius=\frac{diameter}{2}\\ or\\diameter=2* radius( equation\ 1)\\

also

circumference=2*\pi  *radius(equation2)\\

Step1

replace the value of the circumference of tyler's bike in equation 2  and isolate radius to find radius

72 inches=2*\pi  *radius\\\\radius=\frac{72}{2*\pi  } \radius =11.46\ inches

Step 2

now, replace the value of radius into equation 1 to find diameter

radius=11.46 in

diameter=2* radius( equation\ 1)\\\\diameter=2*11.46\\diameter=22.92

so, the diameter is 22.92 inches

I really hope it helps, have a great day.

How do I graph the linear equation of y=x+2
Korolek [52]
Replace ‘x’ with what ever number and then add 2, because if you make x a 1 then you would get a three. the equation goes from (x+2)=y to (1+2)=3 so make x whatever you want and then add 2 and you’ll get your ‘y’
