Another cleaner and less expensive forms of energy (not fossil fuel) are not used on a larger scale because of many reasons. Society is accustomed to burning fossil fuels. To change to another better form of energy would be a huge shift in the way factories, car and our electricity are powered. Also, many fossil fuel companies do not want to be out of business so they attempt to bribe politicians and other public figures to spread false information that climate change is fake so the can continue to earn money disregarding the horrible effects it will have on the planet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparision: Let say you buy chocolate that cost $1. And there was luckily a coupon, for 10% off.

That means after applying the coupon, you will only pay 90% of the original price. Which is

$0.9(1) = 0.9$

which equals 90 cents.

So let go back to this problem and apply similar thinking.

The price of the original root is g, so for the original price column, check the 3rd cell, g.

Use our comparision problem, by applying the coupon to the chocolate, you will save

$1 - 0.9 = 0.1$

which is 1/10 of the original price.

In this equation, we can represent this as 0.1g.

So for the second column, shade in 5th cell, 0.1g.

The price would be

$(0.9)1 = 0.9$

So our equation for this equation will be

0.9g.

So for third column, shade in 1st cell, 0.9g.

MrRa [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of tangent line at a max or a minimum is 0,.

So using point slope formula.

$y - 4 = 0(x - 2)$

$y = 4$

Is the equation of a tangent line. This means we have a horizontal line at y= 4. Horizontal lines have a slope of 0.

COULD SOMEONE WRITE FORMAT THEN WRITE EQUIVALENT FRACTION AND MIXED NUMBER 11.09 21.06 0.06 0.50 6.15 AND 7.41

Igoryamba

I think you mean write in word format so yea

11.09
"Eleven and 9 hundredths"
To convert decimals to fractions first put the decimal over 1, multiply by ten for every number after the decimal point and simplify.

(11.09/1)(10)(10) *Because there are 2 numbers after the . 0 and 9*

1109/100
This will be the most simplified you can get it!
As a mixed number:
11 9/100

Follow these steps for the rest!

21.06
"twenty one and six thousandths"
1053/50
21 3/50

0.06
"six thousandths" or
"zero and six thousandths"
3/50

0.50
"fifty thousandths" or "five tenths" since 0.50=0.5
1/2

6.15
"six and fifteen thousandths"
123/20
6 3/20

7.41
"seven and fourty one thousandths"
741/100
7 41/100

I HOPE THIS HELPS

In a diagram, X is the midpoint of Segment VZ. VW =5, and VY =20. Find the coordinates of W,X, and Y.

guapka [62]

solution:

$x(a_{x},b_{x})is midpoint of vz\\
a_{x}=\frac{a_{v}+a_{z}}{2}=\frac{-12+22}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5\\
b_{x}=\frac{b_{v}+b_{z}}{2}=\frac{0+0}{2}=0\\
and,\\
x(5,0)\\
w(a_{w},b_{w}),v_{w} and w is on the right of v.\\
a_{w}-a_{v}=5\\
a_{w}-(-12)=5\\
a_{w}+12=5\\
a_{w}=5-12=-7\\
w(-7,0)\\
y(a_{y},b_{y})=20 and y is on the right of v.\\
a_{y}-a_{v}=20\\
a_{y}-(-12)=20\\
a_{y}+12=20\\
a_{y}=20-12=8\\
y=(8,0)$
