Because it helps to see which one is greater, For example: if you line up 0.079 and 0.127 you can easily tell that 0.0127 is greater because it is closer to a hole number. Another example: 0.1 and 0.3, obviously 0.3 is greater. in conclusion, the reason you line up the decimal points is to make it easier to see which numbers are greater, which helps you compare and order easily!

natka813 [3]

Answer: (1.5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The shape of his satellite can be modeled by y^2=6x where x and y are modeled in inches.

Now,the given equation y^2=6x is a equation of parabola.

Here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.

On comparing this equation with standard equation x^2=4mx, we get

4m=6\\\Rightarrow\ m=\frac{6}{4}=1.5

In standard equation, coordinates of focus=(m,0)

Thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(1.5,0)

What is the measure in degrees of 8x if one angle is already 7x and 44.4 degrees?
Julli [10]
7x+8x+44.4=180

15x=44.4=180

15x=135.6

x=9.04°

so 8x=72.32° and the 7x is 63.28°
