Answer:

It moves the decimal point one digit to the left

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide it by 10, or multiply by one tenth. For example:

$50*\frac{1}{10}=50*0.1=5$ . Effectively, you move the decimal point one place to the left.

Can someone help please

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

base + 2(legs) = 56 (2 legs are the same because it's isosceles)

x + 2(5x - 5) = 56

x + 10x - 10 = 56

11x -10 = 56

11x = 66

x = 6

Lines e and f are parallel. The mAngle9 = 80° and mAngle5 = 55°. Parallel lines e and f are cut by transversal c and d. All angl

Answer:

$(A)m\angle 2=125^\circ\\(C)m\angle 8=55^\circ\\(E)m\angle 14=100^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the problem is drawn and attached.

Given that:

$m\angle 9 =80^\circ\\m\angle 5 =55^\circ$

$m\angle 5+ m\angle 6=180^\circ\\55^\circ+ m\angle 6=180^\circ\\m\angle 6=180^\circ-55^\circ\\m\angle 6=125^\circ\\$Now:\\m\angle 6 = m\angle 2 $(Corresponging angles)\\Therefore m\angle 2=125^\circ\\$

$m\angle 5= m\angle 8=55^\circ $(Vertically Opposite Angles)$

Also

$m\angle 9+ m\angle 10=180^\circ\\80^\circ+ m\angle 10=180^\circ\\m\angle 10=180^\circ-80^\circ\\m\angle 10=100^\circ\\$Now:\\m\angle 10 = m\angle 14 $(Corresponging angles)\\Therefore m\angle 14=100^\circ\\$

The second of two numbers is 8 less than twice the first number, what are the two numbers?

Mashutka [201]

So the two numbers can be represented as x and y

so x is first and y is second

y=2(x)-8

so y=2x-8

IF THEY ARE CONSECUTIVE
If they are consecutive numbers then
x+1=y
subtitute
x+1=2x-8
subtract x from both sides
1=x-8
add 8 to both sides and get
9=x
put it into the equation and get
y=2(9)-8
y=18-8
y=10
so x=9
y=10
IF X AND Y ARE CONSECUTIVE INTEGERS (1,2,3,4 not 2.3 or 1,3,5,8)
