Because 8/12 is 4/5 in simplified form
Andrew [12]4 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 needs to have the same denominator as 8/12 so you can do this by multiplying the denominator by 3 and the top by 3 you get 9/12

Another way would be converting to percents, 3/4= 75% and 8/12= 66.666%

What are the missing lengths ???
lesantik [10]

Answer:

1. c = 13

2. a = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 12² + 5² = x²

144 + 25 = x

144 + 25 = 169

√169 = 13

2. 29² - 21² = x²

841 - 441 = x

841 - 441 = 400

√400 = 20

If the product of two numbers is positive, which of the following expressions must be true?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

C. The factors had the same sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors that had the same sign will have a positive product.

Two positive numbers will have a positive product.

For example, 3 times 3 is 9.

Two negative numbers will also have a positive product, because multiplying negative numbers by other negative numbers will cancel out the negative.

For example, -3 times -3 is 9.

So, C is correct
