3/4÷6/1=?

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

3/4×1/6=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

3×1/4×6=3 2/4

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 3 and 24 using

GCF(3,24) = 3

3÷324÷3=18

Therefore:

3/4÷6/1=1/8

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for division, to

34÷61

and solve

3×14×6

=324

Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF(3,24) = 3

3÷324÷3=18

Therefore:

3/4÷6/1=1/8

Solve for x: z=m-x *

astraxan [27]

Answer:

x = m - z

Step-by-step explanation:

z = m - x

Add x to both sides.

x + z = m

Subtract z from both sides.

x = m - z

How to find an equation for a line through two given points?

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The equation of the line is: $y = 0.6x + 0.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

$y = mx + b$

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Two points:

We have these following two points in this exercise:

x = -6, y = -3, so (-6,-3)

x = 4, y = 3, so (4,3)

Finding the slope:

Given two points, the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x.

Change in y: 3 - (-3) = 3 + 3 = 6

Change in x: 4 - (-6) = 4 + 6 = 10

$m = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

Then

$y = 0.6x + b$

Finding b:

We replace one of the points in the equation to find b. I will use (4,3).

$y = 0.6x + b$

$3 = 0.6*4 + b$

$2.4 + b = 3$

$b = 0.6$

The equation of the line is: $y = 0.6x + 0.6$

What is an equation of the line through (0,-3) with slope 2\5

baherus [9]

M=2/5 , (0,3)
use y= mx+c , find c first.
-3 = (2/5) 0 + c
c = -3
Thus the equation will be y=(2/5)x - 3.
or in some case,
(y1-y)=m(x1-x)
(-3-y)=(2/5)(0-x)

The exact value of cos5pi/12 is:

jonny [76]

Step 1: Convert $\frac{5\pi }{12}$ , which is in radians into degrees. To convert it multiply by $\frac{180}{\pi }$

$\frac{5\pi }{12} =\frac{180}{\pi }$

900/12

Step 2: 75 degrees isn't on the unit circle but 45 degrees and 30 degrees is. Since 45 + 30 = 75 you can use the cosine of 45 and 30 to find the exact value

cos45 = $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$

cos30 = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

Step 3: Add the cos45 and cos30 to get cos5pi/12

$\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} +\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Hope this helped!
