You can read fractions as one number divided by another. So 1/6 is equivalent to 1 divided by 6. It is then selfevident that the larger the denominator the smaller the number. If you have one cake and divide it between 3, 6 or eight people, three people will get a larger slice than 6 people sharing the same cake. And 6 people will get a larger slice than 8 people dividing the same cake.

The sum of two numbers is 98. their difference is 22. write a system of equations that describes this situation. solve by elimin
larisa [96]
Y+x=98
y-x=22

I'm going to use elimination. 

y+x=98
y-x=22
-----------
2y+0x=120 SIMPLIFY 2y=120 SIMPLIFY y=60. 

Substitute that into either equation and you get y=60 and x=38

Have a nice day! :)

a 28 ft. ladder leaning against a vertical wall makes an angel of 80 degrees with the ground. How far from the base of the wall
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The ladder is 4.86 foot from the base of the wall .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The length of the ladder = 28 ft

The ladder makes angle of 80° with the ground

Let The distance of the ladder from the foot of the wall = x ft

Now, From Triangle BAC

Cos angle = \dfrac{\textrm Base}{\textrm Hypotenuse}

I.e Cos 80° = \dfrac{\textrm BA}{\textrm AC}

Or, 0.1736 =  \dfrac{\textrm x}{\textrm 28}

Or, x = 0.1736 × 28

∴  x = 4.86 foot

So, The distance of ladder from wall base = x =  4.86 foot

Hence The ladder is 4.86 foot from the base of the wall . Answer
