Answer:

-0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have a scientific calculator just plug in $-\frac{3}{8}$ then switch it to decimal form

$-\frac{3}{8} = -0.375$

If you need help going from fraction to decimal form all you need to do is divide -3 by 8 = -0.375

Answer:

The approximated length of EF is 2.2 units ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The tangent ratio in the right triangle is the ratio between the opposite side to the adjacent side of one of the acute angle in the triangle</em>

In the given figure

∵ The triangle DFE has a right angle F

∵ The opposite side to angle D is EF

∵ The adjacent side to angle D is DF

→ By using the tangent ratio above

∴ tan(∠D) = $\frac{EF}{DF}$

∵ DF = 6 units

∵ m∠D = 20°

→ Substitute then in the ratio above

∴ tan(20°) = $\frac{EF}{6}$

→ Multiply both sides by 6

∴ 6 tan(20°) = EF

∴ 2.183821406 = EF

→ Approximate it to the nearest tenth

∴ 2.2 = EF

∴ The approximated length of EF is 2.2 units

4/5 divided by 1/3 plus 1/5 minus 3/5

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}$

Solution Steps:

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}$

$\mathrm{Combine\:the\:fractions\:}\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}:\quad -\frac{2}{5}$

$=\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a}=\frac{b}{c\:\cdot \:a}$

$=\frac{4}{5\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}\right)}$

join $\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{5}:\quad -\frac{1}{15}$

$=\frac{4}{5\left(-\frac{1}{15}\right)}$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a$

$=\frac{4}{-5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}$

$=-\frac{4}{5\cdot \frac{1}{15}}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:}5\cdot \frac{1}{15}\::\quad \frac{1}{3}$

$=-\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}\:\frac{4}{\frac{1}{3}}:\quad \frac{12}{1}$

$=-\frac{12}{1}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:\frac{a}{1}=a$

$=-12$

Therefore

$\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{3}{5}}=-12$

A hiker maintains an average speed of 3 3/4 km/h. How many kilometers will the hiker walk in: 2 1/6 h

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

I'm not all that familiar with that sort of representation, but I guess 3 3/4 = 15/4 and 2 1/6 = 13/6.

You will simply have to multiply the time spent walking, 13/6 hours, by the average distance traveled on an hourly basis, 15/4 km/h.

(13*15)/(4*6) = 195/24 = 8,125 km
