Answer:

Judy's claim to divide 2.4 by 2 is the same as multiplying 2.4 * 0.5 is:

  • <u>Correct</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying a number by 0.5 (whose fractional is 1/2) is the same as dividing this number by 2, this case is very easy to identify by making different examples in which said decimals and integers are used, checking that the result is the same:

EXAMPLES.

1. 12*0.5 = 6

   12/2 = 6

2. 3*0.5 = 1.5

   3/2 = 1.5

3. 5.5*0.5 = 2.75

   5.5/2 = 2.75

As you can see in the previous examples, performing the operation by both methods is correct.

Lorico [155]

Answer: p=7/2=3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-4p+9=-5

Subtract 9 on both sides

-4p+9-9=-5-9

-4p=-14

Divide -4 on both sides

-4p/-4=-14/-4

p=7/2=3.5

Hope this helps!! :)

The cost of a mobile phone processor is directly proportional to its speed.
kompoz [17]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to use the formula used in calculating direct proportion which is equal to:

y = kx

where,

x = speed of a processor in GHz

y = the cost in pounds

Therefore, y = kx

500 = 2k

Therefore, y = 2k

Tan of an angle = perpendicular / base 
<span>Here, perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite the angle. </span>
<span>And base is the arm of the angle other the hypotenuse. </span>

<span>If the side of the triangle to be found (marked as ? in the figure) is x, then </span>

<span>perpendicular = 20 feet </span>
<span>base = x </span>

<span>so, tan 30 = 20/x </span>
<span>so, x = 20/(tan 30 degrees) = 34.64 feet </span>
<span>= 35 feet to the nearest foot</span>
