Answer:

-11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve 5/12 - 7/8 we need to find the LCM.

12 - 12, 24, 36, 48

8 - 8, 16, 24, 32, 40

So the LCM is <u>24.</u>

Meaning we need to make both denominators 24.

12*2 = 24 5*2 = 10

<u>10/24</u>

8*3 = 24 7*3 = 21

<u>21/24</u>

<u />

10/24 - 21/24

= -11/24

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>the answer is -11/24.</em>

<em />

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

Round 18.049 to the nearest tenth.
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

18.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the tenth place value (underlined and bolded): 18.<u>0</u>49

Look at the number to the direct right of the tenth place value (or the hundredth place value in this case). It is a 4.

Note the rules of rounding. If the number:

1) is 5 or greater, round up.

2) is 4 or less, round down.

In this case, it is 4, so you will round down.

18.049 rounded to the nearest tenth is 18.0

An arc of length 15ft subtends a central angle 0 in a circle of radios 9ft. Find measure of 0 in degrees
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

95.49°

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length formula is s = rФ, where r is the radius and Ф is the central angle in radians.  Here, r = 9 ft and s = 15 ft.  Thus, the central angle Ф is

Ф = (15 ft) / (9 ft) = 5/3 radians, or

5 rad       180°

------- * ---------- = 95.49°

      3       π rad
