Answer:

0.75 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

6/8 is equivalent to 3/4

3 divided by 4 is 0.75

Since 6/8 is equivalent then it is also 0.75

Also 6/8 turn to 3/4 when both the numerator and denominator is divided by 2.

6 divided by 2 is 3

8 divided by 2 is 4

0.75

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

⁶/₈ is equivalent to ³/₄.

<u>Question:</u>

How can you use this to help you write ⁶/₈ as a decimal?

<u>The Process:</u>

\frac{6}{8} is equivalent to \frac{3}{4}, because both the numerator and denominator are divided by two, that is,

\boxed{ \ \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2} = \frac{3}{4} \ }

In the next step, we can use \frac{3}{4} to help us write \frac{6}{8} as a decimal. Both the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 25.

\boxed{ \ = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{25}{25} \ }

\boxed{ \ = \frac{75}{100} \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ 0.75 \ }}

If \frac{6}{8} is equivalent to \frac{3}{4} while \frac{3}{4} is equal to 0.75, then \boxed{\boxed{ \ \frac{6}{8} = 0.75 \ }}.

<u>Quick Steps:</u>

\boxed{ \ \frac{6}{8} \rightarrow \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2} = \frac{3}{4} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{25}{25} = \boxed{\frac{75}{100} = 0.75} \ }

\boxed{ \ \frac{6}{8} = 0.75 \ }

What is the exterior and interior angle of a 18 sided polygon
GREYUIT [131]
Would assume the Polygon is an 18 sided regular polygon.

Exterior angle for regular polygon = 360/n      (Sum of angles of exterior angles = 360°)

where n = number of sides.

Exterior angle = 360 / 18 = 20

Exterior angle = 20°

Sum of exterior angle + Interior angle = 180°    (Both angles are on a straight line, so the sum is 180°)

Interior angle = 180° - 20°

Interior angle = <span>160°

For what values of the variable, do the following fractions exist: y^2-1/y+y/y-3
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Remember that the division by zero is not defined, this is the criteria that we will use in this case.

1) \frac{y^2 - 1}{y}  + \frac{y}{y - 3}

So the fractions are defined such that the denominator is never zero.

For the first fraction, the denominator is zero when y = 0

and for the second fraction, the denominator is zero when y = 3

Then the fractions exist for all real values except for y = 0 or y = 3

we can write this as:

R / {0} U { 3}

(the set of all real numbers except the elements 0 and 3)

2) \frac{b + 4}{b^2 + 7}

Let's see the values of b such that the denominator is zero:

b^2 + 7 = 0

b^2 = -7

b = √-7

This is a complex value, assuming that b can only be a real number, there is no value of b such that the denominator is zero, then the fraction is defined for every real number.

The allowed values are R, the set of all real numbers.

3) \frac{a}{a*(a - 1) - 1}

Again, we need to find the value of a such that the denominator is zero.

a*(a - 1) - 1 = a^2 - a - 1

So we need to solve:

a^2 - a - 1 = 0

We can use the Bhaskara's formula, the two values of a are given by:

a = \frac{-(-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 + 4*1*(-1)}  }{2*1}  = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{5} }{2}

Then the two values of a that are not allowed are:

a = (1 + √5)/2

a = (1 - √5)/2

Then the allowed values of a are:

R / {(1 + √5)/2} U {(1 - √5)/2}

If 18 , x , y , -3 are in A.P then find x + y.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

If this is an arithmetic progression, then there is a common difference.

-3-18 = -21

-21/3 = -7

18 - 7 = x

x = 11

11 - 7 = y

y = 4

4 - 7 = -3

x + y

11 + 4 = 15
