Which is SMALLER, -6.3 or -6.1?

Dominik [7]

I believe the answer is -6.3

my explanation is because -6.3 is less than -6.1 so technically it makes it smaller. if you were to add to -6.3 you would get -6.1 on the x axis.

Write the following number as ratios of integers

s2008m [1.1K]

Our goal here is to somehow "surgically remove" the repeating part of the number, so let's start by putting the original value in a variable and messing around with it a bit.

We'll let $x=7.\overline{6}$ . We want to cut the $0.\overline{6}$ bit off completely, so let's create the scalpel that'll let us do that. If $x=7.\overline{6}$ , then we can also say that $10x=76.\overline{6}$ . Maybe I was lying a bit: the $x$ is our real scalpel here, and $10x$ is where we'll be making the cut. Mathematically, a "cut" is almost always shorthand for subtraction, so let's see what our operation (cutting $x$ off of $10x$ ) leaves us with:

$10x-x=76.\overline{6}-7.\overline{6}\\9x=69$

The operation was a success! We can now simply divide either side by 9 to find $x = 69/9$ , which, when reduced by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3, gives us $x=23/3$

Find the value of the variable that results in congruent triangles

sdas [7]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles will be congruent when corresponding sides are congruent. __

We already have ...

KL ≅ NP . . . = 15 mm

JL ≅ MP . . . = 22 mm

So, we need ...

JK ≅ MN

4y +12 = 32 . . . . substitute given values

This will be the case when ...

4y = 20 . . . . . subtract 12

y = 5 . . . . . . . divide by 4

The value of y that makes the triangles congruent is 5.

Whats the difference between 7 7/8 - 3 1/4

faust18 [17]

7 7/8 - 3 1/4

7 7/8 = 6.125

3 1/4 = 0.75

so 6.125 - 0.75

= 5.375

as a mixed fraction the answer is 5 3/8
