Is 7/8 or 11/10 closer to 1? How did you decide anybody help please?

erik [133]

Let

A-----> $\frac{7}{8}$

B-----> $\frac{11}{10}$

C-----> $1$

we know that

Point A-------> Multiply numerator and denominator by $10$

$\frac{7*10}{8*10} =\frac{70}{80}$

Point B-------> Multiply numerator and denominator by $8$

$\frac{11*8}{10*8} =\frac{88}{80}$

Point C-------> Multiply numerator and denominator by $80$

$\frac{1*80}{1*80} =\frac{80}{80}$

Find the distance Point A to Point C

$\frac{80}{80} -\frac{70}{80} =\frac{10}{80}$

Find the distance Point B to Point C

$\frac{88}{80} -\frac{80}{80} =\frac{8}{80}$

therefore

$\frac{8}{80} < \frac{10}{80}$

Point B is closer to Point C

$\frac{11}{10}$ is closer to $1$

the answer is

$\frac{11}{10}$ is closer to $1$

<u>Answer:</u>

The coordinates of endpoint V is (7,-27)

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that the midpoint of line segment UV is (5,-11) And U is (3,5).

To find the coordinates of V.

The formula for mid-point of a line segment is as follows,

Midpoint of UV is $\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}$ , $\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}$

As per the formula, $\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}$ =5, $\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}$ =-11

Here $x_{1}=3; y_{1}=5$

Substituting the value of $x_{1}$ we get,

$\frac{3+x_{2}}{2}$ =5

$3+x_{2}=5\times2$

$x_{2}=10-3$

$x_{2}=7$

Substituting the value of $x_{2}$ we get,

$\frac{5+y_{2}}{2}$ =-11

$5+y_{2}=-11\times2$

$y_{2}=-22-5$

$y_{2}=-27$

So, the coordinates of V is (7,-27)

Steve, 18 years old, is three times as old as his brother Daniel. How old will Steve be when he will be twice as old as Daniel?

gtnhenbr [62]

18 ÷ 3 is 6, which means that Daniel is 6, and there is a 12 year gap between Steve and Daniel.

12 x 2 is 24, so therefore when Steve is 24, Daniel will be 12, so Steve is twice as old as Daniel:)
