1/2 are science because if you make 1/3, 2/6 + 1/6= 3/6. 3/6 = 1/2. 1/2 and 1/2 make a whole.

Answer: 15.7 (1 decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the circumference of a circle is d(diameter) x π(pi).

The diameter of this is 5 so you would do 5xπ=15.7 (1 decimal place)

Help me on number 12 13 14 and 15
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

12. 1.625 [terminating]; 13. 0.83 [bar notation over 3 (repeating)]; 14. 900 cm = 9 m; 15. 0.23 cm = 2.3 mm

Repeating decimals are parts of decimals that have repetitive digits; terminating decimals are decimals whose digits end.

Whether you are using Metric or Imperial, you have to determine whether you are going from a small unit to a big unit or vice versa. Then perform your operation. So, in exercise 14, the smaller unit is centimeters, so you would be going from big to small. Exercise 15 has you going from small to big.

There are centimeters in one meter, so multiply 9 by to get 900 centimeters.

There are 10 millimeters in one centimeter, so divide 2.3 by 10 simply by moving the decimal point ONCE to the left [Power of 10].

small to BIG → Division

BIG to small → Multiplication

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Substitution method<br>4x + y = 14<br>6x - 3y = 3​
lakkis [162]

Answer:

  • x = 2.5
  • y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We know that:</u>

  • 4x + y = 14
  • 6x - 3y = 3

<u>Let's first solve for y by choosing any equation.</u>

  • 4x + y = 14
  • => y = 14 - 4x

<u>Now, let's substitute the value of y into the second equation.</u>

  • 6x - 3y = 3
  • => 6x - 3(14 - 4x) = 3
  • => 6x - 42 + 12x = 3
  • => 18x - 42 = 3
  • => 18x = 42 + 3
  • => 18x = 45
  • => x = 45/18 = 5/2 = 2.5

<u>Now, let's substitute the value of x into the equation of y.</u>

  • => 14 - 4x = y
  • => 14 - 4(2.5) = y
  • => 14 - 10 = y
  • => y = 4

Hence, the value of x and y are 2.5 and 4 respectively.
