Answer: a) 3/5 =0.6

b) 3/5 of given speed=39 miles per hour


Step-by-step explanation:

Given :- Speed of a car= 65 miles per hour

Going through construction,it travels at 3/5 this speed.

Now 3/5 of speed =\frac{3}{5}\times65\text{ miles per hour}\\=0.6\times65\text{ miles per hour}..........\text{[Convert 3/5 in decimal by dividing 3 with 5]}\\=39\text{ miles per hour}

Therefore, 3/5 of given speed=39 miles per hour

Which best describes the relationship between the successive terms in the sequence shown?
Alex Ar [27]

Given series is 2.4,-4.8,9.6,-19.2

To find whether it has common difference or common ratio let us find few differences and few ratios of consecutive terms.

Common difference of first 2 terms = 2nd term - first term = -4.8-2.4 = -7.2

Common difference of 2nd and 3rd terms = 3rd term - 2nd term = 9.6-(-4.8) = 14.4

Since those common differences are not equal the given series does not have common difference at all.

To check if it has common ratio or not let us find few ratios of consecutive terms.

Common ratio of first 2 terms = \frac{2nd term}{first term} = \frac{-4.8}{2.4} = -2

Common ratio of 2nd and 3rd terms = \frac{3rd term}{2nd term} = \frac{9.6}{-4.8} = -2.0

So, the given series has common ratio as -2.0

topjm [15]
<span>In triangle WXZ,

Line WY is an altitude (as shown in the attached picture)
Now, it is given that:
</span><span>If ΔYWZ ~ ΔYXW
</span>∠WXY = ∠WZY
<span>
Then, we can also conclude 
</span>∠WYX = ∠WYZ = 90°....(1) (because WY is the altitude)

Now, in any triangle, the sum of all the three angles is 180.

In triangle, WXY, ∠WYX = 90° (From 1)
Therefore, WXY + XWY = 90°

Similarly, in WZY.

Hence, we conclude that XWZ is a right angle.
