Answer:

A decimal is a fraction written in a special form. ... Decimal comes from the Latin word decimus, meaning tenth, from the root word decem, or 10.

PLEASE HELP MEE I CAN'T SOLVE THIS BY MYSELF!
UNO [17]

Answer:

x = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is attached below.

Its given that SV is parallel to RU. We have to find the value of x.

Observe that, if we join point V to U, we will obtain a parallelogram RSVU. One of the properties of a parallelogram is that the sum of its two adjacent angles is always 180 degrees.

So, the two adjacent angles would be: ∠S and ∠R

From the figure:

∠S = 5x + 4

∠R = 44 + x

Since,

∠S + ∠R must be 180 degrees, we can write:

∠S + ∠R  = 180

5x + 4 + 44 + x = 180

6x + 48 = 180

6x = 132

x = 22

Therefore, the value of x is 22.

Given that y = 6 + 4x-x^2express y in the form a.-(x + b)^2, where a and b are
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

6 + 4x − x² = 10 − (x − 2)²

the turning point : (2 , 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + 4x − x² =  − x² + 4x + 6

                 = − (x² − 4x) + 6

                 = − (x² − 4x + 4 − 4) + 6

                 = − [(x − 2)² − 4] + 6

                 = − (x − 2)² + 4 + 6

                 = − (x − 2)² + 10

                 = 10 − (x − 2)²

Then the turning point of y is (2 , 10)
