<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
They are not equal

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u><em>Let's take a look at each one of them separately:</em></u>
</span>\frac{1}{5}<span> : This fraction is in the simplest form. It is equivalent to 0.2
The fraction is formed by dividing one part over five

</span>\frac{5}{5}<span> : This fraction is not in the simplest form. We can divide 5 by 5 and the answer would be 1. Therefore, </span>\frac{5}{5}<span> is equivalent to 1

</span>\frac{5}{1}<span> : This fraction is not in the simplest form. We can divide 5 by 1 and the answer would be 5. Therefore, </span>\frac{5}{1}<span> is equivalent to 5.

Based on the above, we can cnfirm that 0.2 , 1 and 5 are not equivalent.
Therefore, the given fractions are not equivalent

Hope this helps :)</span>

<BAC = <DEC = 30°

<BCA = <DCE = 70°

<CDE (or m<D) = 180° - <DEC - <DCE

<CDE = 180° - 30° - 70°

<CDE = 80°

In an older television set, the screen height is 0.75 times the screen width.
natima [27]
The television set has a rectangular shape. The diagonal of this rectangle along with its width and length together form a right angular triangle.
This means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that:
(diagonal)^2 = (length)^2 + (width)^2

Let the width be w. We know that the length is 0.75 times the width, this means that: length = 0.75 w

Substitute in the above equation:
(20)^2 = (0.75w)^2 + (w)^2
400 = 0.5625 w^2 + w^2
400 = 1.5625 w^2
w^2 = 256
w = 16

This means that the width of the screen is 16 in.
