<h3>Answer:  A) 1/10</h3>

=============================================

Work Shown:

(4/5) divided by 8

(4/5) divided by (8/1)

(4/5) * (1/8) .... flip the second fraction and multiply

(4*1)/(5*8)

(4*1)/(5*4*2)

1/(5*2) ... the '4's cancel

1/10

--------------

Alternative method:

4/5 = 0.8 when using a calculator or long division

(4/5) divided by 8 = 0.8/8 = 0.1

0.1 = 1/10

The digit 1 in 0.1 is in the tenths place, so that's why 0.1 = 1/10

Or you could use your calculator to see that 1/10 = 0.1

Another idea is to do

0.1 = 0.1/1 = 0.1/1.0 = 1.0/10.0 = 1/10

here I moved the decimal point 2 spots to the right for the numerator and denominator.

Three times the sum of a number and seven is two less than five times the number. . a. 3x+7=5x-2. b. 3(x+7)=5x-2. c. 3(x+7)=2-5x
Nuetrik [128]
<span>We dissect each statement from the problem above to fully understand it.

the sum of a number and 7 is (x + 7)

3 times this is 3(x + 7)

is means the equal sign here </span><span>3(x + 7) = </span><span>

Two less then 5 times the number is 5x - 2.

Therefore, the answer is B, 3(x + 7) = 5x - 2</span>

Robert takes a roast out of the oven when the internal temperature of the roast is 165°F. After 15 minutes, the temperature of t
faust18 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of drop of temperature = Change in temperature/Rate

=> (165 - 135)/15

=> 30/15

=> 2 ⁰F/min

Now, The time at which the temperature of will be 70⁰F = 70/Rate

=> 70/2

=> 35 min

Time for 110⁰ F

=> 110/2

=> 55 min

Triangle A″B″C″ is formed using the translation (x + 2, y + 0) and the dilation by a scale factor of one half from the origin. W
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

  • A. segment A double prime B double prime = segment AB over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Triangle ABC with coordinates of:</u>

  • A = (-3, 3), B = (1, -3), C = (-3, -3)

<u>Translation (x + 2, y + 0), coordinates will be:</u>

  • A' = (-1, 3), B = ( 3, -3), C = (-1, -3)

<u>Dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 from the origin, coordinates will be:</u>

  • A'' = (-0.5, 1.5), B'' = (1.5, -1.5), C= (-0.5, -1.5)

<u>Let's find the length of AB and A''B'' using distance formula</u>

  • d = √(x2-x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
  • AB = √(1-(-3))² + (-3 -3)² = √4²+6² = √16+36 = √52 = 2√13
  • A''B'' = √(1.5 - (-0.5)) + (-1.5 - 1.5)² = √2²+3² = √13

<u>We see that </u>

  • AB = 2A''B''

<u>Now the answer options:</u>

A. segment A double prime B double prime = segment AB over 2

  • Correct

B. segment AB = segment A double prime B double prime over 2

  • Incorrect. Should be AB = A''B''*2

C. segment AB over segment A double prime B double prime = one half

  • Incorrect. Should be AB/A''B'' = 2

D. segment A double prime B double prime over segment AB = 2

  • Incorrect. Should be A''B''/AB = 1/2
