Answer:

63/5 or 12 (3/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 8 whole (1 ÷ 5) plus 4 whole (2 ÷ 5)

So,we can write it as 8 (1/5) + 4 (2/5)

Then we will take those mixed fractions to improper fractions by using the rule of multiplication.

8 will be multiplied by 5 and then the value will be added to 1. Same rule will be applied for the second fraction.

(41÷5) + (22÷5)

Now we will take L.C.M. (Least common multiple) for both denominators 5 and 5. The L.C.M of 5 and 5 = 5

(41 + 22)/5

= 63/5

It is the answer. Also we can make this improper fraction into mixed fraction by dividing the whole number by 5.

12 (3/5)

A house is built on coordinates (2,9). There is a water pipeline that runs along the line y = 2 3 x – 1. What is the approximate

Basile [38]

Answer:

7.21 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest length needed to connect the house to the existing pipeline is the perpendicular distance between the location of the house (2,9) and the line y = 2/3x - 1.

The perpendicular distance (d) between a point ( $x_1,y_1$ ) and the line Ax + By + C = 0 is given as:

$d=\frac{|Ax_1+By_1+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2} }$

The line is given by y = 2/3 x - 1; 2/3x - y - 1 = 0. The point = (2, 9)

hence A = 2/3, B = -1, C = -1, $x_1=2,y_1=9\\$ . Therefore:

$d=\frac{|\frac{2}{3}(2)+(-1)(9)+(-1) |}{\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}^2+(-1)^2 } } \\\\d=7.21$
