12/15÷1/5

when dividing fractions, all you have to do is multiply the first number by the second number's reciprocal
(reciprocal is denominator over numerator)

12/15÷1/5
12/15×5/1

remember when multiplying fractions it's the the two numerators multiplied together over the two denominators multiplied

12/15×5/1
60/15
4

The answer is 4

Solve by using Pythagorean Theorem, a= 5, b= x-1, and c=x

charle [14.2K]

The value of x is 13, from the values of x the values of a,b and c becomes 5, 12 and 13, which is obtained by using Pythagorean theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

a = 5

b = x - 1

c = x

Step:1

Pythagorean theorem is,

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$ ................................(1)

( It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides )

From the given values the equation (1) becomes,

$5^{2} + (x-1) ^{2} = x^{2}$

( $(a-b)^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} -2ab$ )

25 + ( $x^{2}$ + 1 - 2x ) = $x^{2}$

25 + 1 -2x = 0 ( ∵ Eliminate $x^{2}$ in both sides)

26 = 2x

x = 13

Step:2

From the values of x,

a = 5

b = ( 13 - 1 ) = 12

c = 13

Result:

The value of x is 13, from the values of x the values of a,b and c becomes 5, 12 and 13, which is obtained by using Pythagorean theorem.

10) Use the graph below: What percent of strikeouts is Samar responsible 10 pointsfor?BASEBALL STRIKEOUTSCARLOSPITCHERYUSAMARJUS

JulsSmile [24]

First let's find out the total number of strikeouts, by adding the number of strikeouts of each person:

$\text{total}=13+9+5+11+8+4=50$

Now, to find the percentage of strikeouts that Samar is responsible, let's divide his number of strikeouts (5) by the total number of strikeouts (50):

$\frac{5}{50}=\frac{1}{10}=\frac{10}{100}=10\text{\%}$

So Samar is responsible for 10% of the strikeouts.
