Answer:

Solution is 1 (one).

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation $\frac{18-24}{-6}$ can be solved by solving first the expression in the numerator. This is done by solving $18-24=-6$ .
Then, you just have $\frac{-6}{-6}$ . The negative is canceled when it appears twice, so we just have to solve $\frac{6}{6}=1$ (any number divided by itself equals to one).

Ramon has 7/8 of a cup of cottage cheese. How many 1/4 cup servings can he make? Give an exact answer in decimal form.

krek1111 [17]

Answer: The answer in decimal form is 0.75

Step-by-step explanation: We know Ramon has 7/8 cup of cottage cheese.

He wants to know how many 1/4 cup servings can he make. 1/4 can also be written as 2/8 cup servings. 1/4 and 2/8 are equivalent.

He can only make three 1/4 cup servings of cottage cheese.

3 x 1/4 = 3/4

3/4 written in decimal form is 0.75

I need help its my homework and it's due today Find the base angles.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Each base angle would be 70°.

Step-by-step explanation:

*Base angles means the two equal angles formed on the base are called base angles.

Base means the third unequal side of the triangle. *

Given triangle is isosceles triangle.

The angle of vertex which is given is 40°.

Let each base angle be x.

We know that,

There are two base angles in a isosceles triangle.

And, Sum of angles of triangle is 180° .

Therefore,

$\tt \implies \: x + x + 40 {}^{ \circ} = 180 {}^\circ$

Now Solve For x. That would be the solution.

Steps:

Combine like terms:

$\tt \implies2x + 40{}^{ \circ} = 180{}^{ \circ}$

Subtract 40 from both sides:

$\tt \implies2x + 40{}^{ \circ} - 40 = 180{}^{ \circ} - 40{}^{ \circ}$

Simplify the LHS and RHS:

$\tt \implies2x + 0 = 140{}^{ \circ}$

$\tt \implies2x = 140 {}^{ \circ}$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\tt \implies \cfrac{2x}{2} = \cfrac{140{}^{ \circ} }{2{}^{ \circ} }$

Use cancellation method and cancel LHS and RHS:

$\tt \implies \cfrac{ \cancel2x}{ \cancel2} = \cfrac{ \cancel{140^{ \circ}} }{ \cancel{2{}^{ \circ} }}$

$\tt \implies \cfrac{1x}{1} = \cfrac{70{}^{ \circ} }{1{}^{ \circ} }$

$\tt \implies{1x} = {70}^{ \circ}$

$\tt \implies{x} = 70{}^{ \circ}$

Hence, each base angle would be 70°.

Verification:

As we know that sum of angles of triangle is 180°.

So,

$\tt \implies \: Base \: angle + other \: base \: angle + vertex \: angle= 180{}^{ \circ}$

We got that one base angles of the given isosceles triangle is 70° and other is 70°, and the vertex angle is 40°[Given].

$\tt \implies70{}^{ \circ} + 70{}^{ \circ} + 40{}^{ \circ} = 180{}^{ \circ}$

Solve it.

$\tt \implies140{}^{ \circ} + 40{}^{ \circ} = 180{}^{ \circ}$

$\tt \implies180{}^{ \circ} = 180{}^{ \circ}$

$\tt \: LHS = RHS$

$\star \sf \: Hence, Verified.$
