Which fraction is equal to 5/6? 8/22, 25/30, 5/15?

1 answer:

3 0

If the fraction cannot be simplified any more, you can multiply both the numerator and denominator by an number.

5/6 (multiply the top and bottom by 2) is the same as 10/12
8/22 (can be simplified by dividing top and bottom by 2) is 4/11
25/30 (simplified by dividing by 5) is 5/6
5/15 (simplified by dividing by 5) is 1/3

Hope this helps!

2. Given a quadrilateral with vertices (−1, 3), (1, 5), (5, 1), and (3,−1):

zlopas [31]

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In every rectangle, the two diagonals have the same length. If a quadrilateral's diagonals have the same length, that doesn't mean it has to be a rectangle, but if a parallelogram's diagonals have the same length, then it's definitely a rectangle.

So first of all, let's prove this is a parallelogram. The basic definition of a parallelogram is that it is a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.

So let's name the vertices as:

$A(-1,3) \\ \\ B(1,5) \\ \\ C(5,1) \\ \\ D(3,-1)$

First pair of opposite sides:

<u>Slope:</u>

$\text{For AB}: \\ \\ m=\frac{5-3}{1-(-1)}=1 \\ \\ \\ \text{For CD}: \\ \\ m=\frac{1-(-1)}{5-3}=1 \\ \\ \\ \text{So AB and CD are parallel}$

Second pair of opposite sides:

<u>Slope:</u>

$\text{For BC}: \\ \\ m=\frac{1-5}{5-1}=-1 \\ \\ \\ \text{For AD}: \\ \\ m=\frac{-1-3}{3-(-1)}=-1 \\ \\ \\ \text{So BC and AD are parallel}$

So in fact this is a parallelogram. The other thing we need to prove is that the diagonals measure the same. Using distance formula:

$d=\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_{1})^2+(x_{2}-x_{1})^2} \\ \\ \\ Diagonal \ BD: \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(5-(-1))^2+(1-3)^2}=2\sqrt{10} \\ \\ \\ Diagonal \ AC: \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(3-1)^2+(-5-1)^2}=2\sqrt{10} \\ \\ \\$

So the diagonals measure the same, therefore this is a rectangle.

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Option A is true

The researchers proved that exercise causes weight loss only for high school students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the researchers found a high correlation, 0.93, between amount of exercise and weight lost.

Now, looking at each of the options;

- A is True because due to the high correlation, the research proves that exercise causes weight loss but only for high school students.

- B is not true because we are told the correlation is very high at 0.93. Thus, it is untrue that there is no proven causation.

-C is not true because there's no where that the researchers have completely proved that exercise causes weight loss generally. It is only peculiar to the high school students studied.

-D is not true because the 93% is just a correlation and not a percentage of those who lost weight

Are any of these functions?

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

No, they are not.

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to find a function on a graph is by finding if any points share the same x value. All of these do, so none are functions.

The side length of a square ice cube is claimed to be 1.0 inches, correct to within 0.001 inch. Use linear approximation to esti

Olenka [21]

Answer:

0.012

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear approximation says that,

$f(x) \approx f(x_o)+f'(x_o)(x-x_o)$

For a cube the surface area is $6x^2$ .

So the side is 1.0 inch in, the surface area is $=6\times1^2 = 6$ square inches.

In Linear approximation means you ignore the term $x_o^2$ , if $x_o$ is a small number, because then $x_o^2$ will be a very smalle number and that does not contribute much to the error.

So the surface area is approximately,

$6x^2=6x_o^2+12x_o(x-x_o)$

So here, $x=1.001, x_o=0.001$

The error in the area is approximately,

$12 \times 0.001=0.012$

So the error is 0.012.
