5/3 divided by 4/9 is?

Mathematics
2 answers:
Triss [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. so all you have to do is 5/3 x 9/4. Once you get the answer simplify it down to a mixed number or leave it as an improper fraction, i simplified down and got 3 3/4

Please mark as brainliest :)

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 4 /9  is 9/ 4  of the second fraction)

. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step cancelling by a common factor of 3 gives 15 /4

.

In words - five thirds divided by four ninths = fifteen quarters.

(5/3) : (4/9) = 15 /4  = 3 3/ 4  = 3.75

A bicycle has a listed price of 837.95 before tax if the sales tax rate is 7.5% find the total cost of the bicycle with a sales
Andru [333]

Answer:

The total cost of a bicycle after the tax = $900.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The cost of a bicycle before tax = 837.95 (let say in $)
  • Sales tax = 7.5% = 0.075

To determine

The total cost of the bicycle with a sales tax include

The tax amount can be calculated by multiplying Sales tax i.e. 0.075 with the cost of bicycle before tax i.e. 837.95.

Thus,

Tax amount = 7.5% × 837.95

                    = 0.075 × 837.95

                    = $62.85

Thus, the tax amount is: $62.85

Total cost after the tax can be calculated by adding the Tax amount and the cost before tax.

Therefore,

The total cost of a bicycle after the tax = $62.85 + $837.95

                                                                 = $900.8

Hence, the total cost of a bicycle after the tax = $900.8

In triangle $ABC$, let angle bisectors $BD$ and $CE$ intersect at $I$. The line through $I$ parallel to $BC$ intersects $AB$ and
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

41

Step-by-step explanation:

If you work through a series of obscure calculations involving area and the radius of the incircle, they boil down to a simple fact:

... For MN║BC, perimeter ΔAMN = perimeter ΔABC - BC = AB+AC

.. = 17+24 = 41

_____

Wow! Thank you for an interesting question with a not-so-obvious answer.

_____

<em>A little more detail</em>

The point I that you have defined is the incenter—the center of an inscribed circle in the triangle. Its radius is the distance from I to any side, such as BC, for example.

If we use "Δ" to represent the area of the triangle and "s" to represent the semi-perimeter, (AB+BC+AC)/2, then the incircle has radius Δ/s. The area Δ can be computed from Heron's formula by ...

... Δ = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)) . . . . where a, b, c are the side lengths

For this triangle, the area is Δ = √38480 ≈ 196.1632 units². That turns out to be irrelevant.

The altitude to BC will be 2Δ/(BC), so the altitude of ΔAMN = (2Δ/(BC) -Δ/s). Dividing this by the altitude to BC gives the ratio of the perimeter of ΔAMN to the perimeter of ΔABC, which is 2s.

Putting these ratios and perimeters together, we get ...

... perimeter ΔAMN = (2Δ/(BC) -Δ/s)/(2Δ/(BC)) × 2s

... = (2/(BC) -1/s) × BC × s = 2s -BC

... perimeter ΔAMN = AB +AC

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given points.<br> (-1,5) and (2, - 7)
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The equation of the straight line is 4x +y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given points are (-1,5) and ( 2,-7)

Slope of the line

m =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2} -x_{1} }  =\frac{-7-5}{2-(-1)}  = \frac{-12}{3} = -4

slope of the line m = -4

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

The equation of the straight line passing through the point (-1,5) and having slope 'm' = -4

y - y_{1} = m( x-x_{1} )

y - 5 = -4 ( x-(-1))

y -5 = -4 x -4

4 x + y -5 +4=0

4x +y -1 =0

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

The equation of the straight line is 4x +y = 1

<u><em>  </em></u>
