Mathematics

Answer:

.5

Step-by-step explanation:

.5 is the answer because decimals have digits counting by 10's.....if that makes sense. Like whole numbers start with ones then tens, hundereds, thousands and so on. Decimals go 10ths, 100ths, and that goes on. So 1/2 of 10 is 5 another example is .10 in half (half is the same thing as dividing by two.) so you get .5

Im not the best at explaining things lol, but I hope this helps and havea great day!

Answer:

.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to get the denominator to be a power of 10

1/2 *5/5 = 5/10

5/10 = .5

1/2 = .5

Another approach is to take the numerator and divide by the denominator.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

im guessing 6 is your base and your height is 15 3/4.

Formula of a triangle we must remember:

BH x 1/2 (basically dividing by 2)

94.5 (fraction form will be: 94 1/2)

94.5 divided by 2 = 47.25 <---------- decimal form

94 1/2 divided by 2 = 47 1/4 <------- fraction form

James just began a job as a nurse. He is given a starting salary of $66,640 per year. He is also told that his salary will incre
Leto [7]

Answer:

the rate of change of James’ salary is $845 dollars per year

y = 845x + 66640

the value of James’ salary in 23 years=$86,075

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the years worked and y = Salary in dollars

When x=0 then y = 66640

when x= 8 then y = 73400

Two points are (0,66640)  and (8,73400)

Rate of change of salary is the slope

To find slope we use formula

slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{73400-66640}{8-0} =845

the rate of change of James’ salary is $845 dollars per year

Slope intercept form of equation is y=mx+b

m = 845 , b is the y intercept (initial salary)

so y = 845x + 66640

Now we find out salary in 23 years

plug in 23 for x in the y equation

y = 845x + 66640

y = 845(23) + 66640=86075

the value of James’ salary in 23 years=$86,075
