5 1/10 divided 6 2/5

1 answer:

3 0

So, first, to make things easier, you should convert these mixed fractions into improper fractions so it's easier to deal with later. The improper fractions will be 51/10 divided by 32/5.

Since you're are dividing fractions, there is a rule when dividing fractions, you have to multiply the number by the reciprocal, meaning the second fraction needs to be flipped and the divide signs will turn into a multiply sign. It will be:

51/10 times 5/32

This is the time where you simply where you can:
51/2 times 1/32

After simplifying, you times the numerator together (the top number of the fraction) and the denominator (the bottom number of the fraction).
=51/64

Which of the following would be an acceptable first step in simplifying the expression sinx/1-sinx

Paha777 [63]

$\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\\\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
\\\\\\
\textit{also recall that }sin^2(\theta)+cos^2(\theta)=1\implies cos^2(\theta)=1-sin^2(\theta)\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf \cfrac{sin(x)}{1-sin(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)}{1-sin(x)}\cdot \cfrac{1+sin(x)}{1+sin(x)}\implies \stackrel{first~step}{\cfrac{sin(x)[1+sin(x)]}{[1-sin(x)][1+sin(x)]}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)[1+sin(x)]}{1^2-sin^2(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)[1+sin(x)]}{cos^2(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)+sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)}{cos^2(x)}+ \cfrac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}\cdot \cfrac{1}{cos(x)}+\cfrac{sin^2(x)}{cos^2(x)}\implies tan(x)sec(x)+tan^2(x)
\\\\\\
tan(x)[sec(x)+tan(x)]$

An item that was selling for $80 is reduced to $42. Find the percent decrease in

Westkost [7]

Answer:

47.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to first subtract 80 and 42 to find the decrease first. This is 38. Now, you have to divide this by the original number which is 80. So 38 divided by 80 is 0.475.

Now multiply this by 100.

You can easily move the decimal point to the right.

So you would get 47.5%

Hope this helped!
