Rewrite the fraction

- 82/5

as a decimal.

First, express it as a mixed number.

5 goes 16 times into 82, because 16 * 5 = 80, and you have a remainder of 2. So

- 82/5

= - [ 80/5 + 2/5 ]

= - [ 16 2/5 ]

= - [ 16 + 2/5 ]

Now, multiply both numerator and denominator of that proper fraction by 20, so you get a new fraction whose denominator is a power of ten (100 in this case):

= - [ 16 + (2 * 20)/(5 * 20) ]

= - [ 16 + 40/100 ]

But.40/100 = 0.4. So it is

= - [ 16 + 0.4 ]

= - 16.4 <----- this is the answer.

I hope this helps. =)

You can just multiply the top and the bottom by 2, to get the bottom to be 10. So you get -164/10. From here you can see that 10 goes into 164,16.4 times. 

Therefore, -82/5 = -16.4

Gerard concluded that the triangle with sides √95 feet, 8 feet, and √150 cannot be used as a building frame support on the house
tankabanditka [31]
Right triangle ... use Pythagorean theorem.
Hypotenuse is longest side.
8^2 = 64 so it is the shortest side, then sqrt(95) then sqrt(150).
So Pythagorean theorem is 8^2 + [sqrt(95)]^2 = [sqrt(150)]^2 if the triangle is right.
64 + 95 = 159 which doesn’t equal 150 so he’s right. It’s not a right triangle

How would you find the slope of the line containing the points P(4, 9) and R(57, 73)?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Slope is defined as the difference in the vertical axis divided by the difference in the horizontal axis, going left to right (s = dy/dx).  P has a lesser x co-ordinate, so it will be R - P in this case, giving us (ry - py) / (rx - px):

s = \frac{{\Delta}y}{{\Delta}x}

s = \frac{73 - 9}{57 - 4}

s = 64/53
