No it's 2.125 so it's not repeating

17/8 = 2.125 which has the decimal portion terminate or stop. This is not a repeating decimal. This is a terminating decimal.

The denominator 8 can be factored into 2*2*2. Since 2 is the only factor, this means that the decimal terminates. The same rule applies if 5 is present as a factor. If the denominator has other numbers (other than 2 or 5) as factors, then the decimal would repeat in some fashion.

For numbers 15-17, we need to remember that two of a triangle's angles are always acute and the third angle will allow us to classify the triangle based on its angles. now that we know this, let's look at #15. the first two angles listed are acute, and the third is an obtuse angle, therefore it is an obtuse triangle. on #16 we have three acute angles, so it is an acute triangle. #17 has two acute angles and a right angle so it is a right triangle.
on numbers 21-23, we need to know that a triangle with all congruent sides is called equilateral, a triangle with two equal sides is isosceles, and a triangle with no equal sides is called scalene. #21 shows two equal sides so it is an isosceles triangle. #22 has three equal sides so it is an equilateral triangle. #23 has no equal sides so it is scalene. hope this helped! :)

The formula for velocity of an object is the equals d over t where he is a velocity of the object t is the distance traveled and
butalik [34]

Answer:

(a)\ t =\frac{d}{v}

(b)\ d = vt

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is mixed up with details of another question. See comment for original question</em>

<em />

<u>Given</u>

v = \frac{d}{t}

v \to velocity

d \to distance

t \to time

Solving (a): Solve for time

We have:

v = \frac{d}{t}

Cross multiply

t * v = d

Make t the subject

t =\frac{d}{v}

Solving (b): Solve for distance

We have:

v = \frac{d}{t}

Cross multiply

d = v * t

d = vt
