Find ing the common denominator would make it 10.
for 1/2 to get to 10 you have to multiply by 5
1/2x5= 5/10
then you have to convert 2/5 to get the denominator to be 10
so you multiply 2/5 by 2
2/5x2= 4/10
5/10 is greater than 4/10

What are the rise and run of the line whose equation is y=15x ?
butalik [34]

y = mx , where m is a slope,

m= rise/run

We have y = 15x, so m =15 and  rise/run =15, then

rise = 15, run = 1

SOLVE 6-9. State of each triangle is a right triangle
11111nata11111 [884]

To find out if a triangle is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem(which can only be used for right triangles):

a² + b² = c² (c is the hypotenuse or the longest side) And you can plug in the side lengths into this equation. If they are the same number on both sides, it is a right triangle, if they are different numbers it is not a right triangle.


6.) a² + b² = c²

(4√3)² + (11)² = (13)²

(16(3)) + 121 = 169

48 + 121 = 169

169 = 169 It IS a right triangle


7.) a² + b² = c²

(5)² + (2√14)² = (9)²

25 + (4(14)) = 81

25 + 56 = 81

81 = 81 It IS a right triangle


8.) a² + b² = c²

(6)² + (√49)² = (√82)²

36 + 49 = 82

85 = 82 It is NOT a right triangle


9.) a² + b² = c²

(13)² + (2√39)² = (16)²

169 + (4(39)) = 256

169 + 156 = 256

325 = 256 It is NOT a right triangle

Division 54 /7.5 plz answer this​
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

turn the decimal into a whole number by multiplying by 10, 100 (what you do to one number you must do to the other)

multiply both by 10 it then becomes

540/75 = 7.2

it's easier to divide whole numbers and is the same answer as 54/7.5

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

0.069\ kg

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 kg=1,000 g

so

using proportion

Find out how many kilograms are 69 grams

Let

x -----> the weight in kg

\frac{1}{1,000}\frac{kg}{g} =\frac{x}{69}\frac{kg}{g}\\\\x=\frac{69}{1,000}\\\\x=0.069\ kg
