Yes, James is correct.

Think of a pizza. If there are 5 slices and you have all 5 of them, then you have the whole pizza.

Now, instead of the pizza having 5 slices, it now has 10. Since the pizza is still the same size, the pieces are going to smaller. If you have 9 slices out of the 10, you won't have the whole pizza.

This is why 5/5 is greater than 9/10.

Explain how your knowledge of place value helps you divide a number in the thousands by whole numbers to 10 give an example to s

lapo4ka [179]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The value of a digit due to its position in a number is called as place value.

For example, there's a number

23450

2 is in ten thousands place and it has a place value of 20,000

3 is in thousands place and it has a place value of 3000

4 is in hundreds place and it has a place value of 400

5 is in tens place and has a place value of 50

0 is in unit or ones place and has a value of 0

When we divide the number by 10, we move every digit from its current place value to the right.

23450 divided by 10 = 2345

Now,

2 is in thousands place and it has a place value of 2,000

3 is in hundreds place and it has a place value of 300

4 is in tens place and it has a place value of 40

5 is in unit or ones place and has a place value of 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = 2x - 1.....(1) \\ g(x) = 3x + 5....(2) \\ plug \: x = 5 \: in \: (2) \\ g(5) = 3 \times 5 + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20 \\ \therefore \: f(g(5)) = 2 \times 20 - 1 = 40 - 1 = 39 \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: f(g(5)) =39}}$

5. Find the measure of the indicated angle.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

180 - 26 = 154

10x + 8 + 9x - 25 = 154

19x - 17 = 154

19x = 171

x= 9

Explain why 173 degrees cannot be an interior angle from any regular polygon.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

A regular polygon with each interior angle of 170 deg will have each exterior angle as 180–170 = 10 deg. Hence the number of sides in the regular polygon = 360/10 = 36 sides.
