Answer:

-4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert any mixed numbers to fractions.

Then your initial equation becomes:

9/7÷−9/4

Applying the fractions formula for division,

=9×4/7×−9

=36/−63

Simplifying 36/-63, the answer is

=−4/7

Determine which lines are parallel and which are not parallel. Explain your reasoning.

NeX [460]

Answer:

If M and N are parallel, then the correspondent angles generated by the intersection with line R (or line S) should be equal.

So, if M and N are parallel, we should get that angles 2 and angle 4 are equal, as both of these are on the fourth quadrant of the intersection with the same line.

Similarly, if R and S are parallel, then correspondent angles generated by the intersection with line M (or line N) should be equal, this means that:

angle 3 and angle 7 should be equal.

Also remember that if we have two lines intersecting, generating 4 angles, any pair of two adjacent angles will always add to 180°.

Here we have two cases:

1) m∠3=69°, m∠7=71°

Here we can see that:

m∠3 ≠ m∠7

Thus, lines R and S are not parallel.

And here we do not have any information on the angles 1, 2, 5, and 6, so we can't compare the angles generated by line N with the ones generated by line M, so we can not know if lines N and M are parallel or not.

2) Now we have that:

m∠3=76° , m∠8=114°

Notice that angle 8 and angle 7 are adjacent, then we have that:

∠7 + ∠8 = 180°

And we know that:

∠8 = 114°

Then:

∠7 + 114° = 180°

∠7 = 180° - 114° = 76°

Then we have:

∠7 = ∠3

From this we can conclude that lines R and S are parallel.

(again, we can not do anything with lines N and M)

Problem 2

Part (a)

The 3D shape formed when rotating around the y axis forms a pencil tip

The shape formed when rotating around the x axis is a truncated cone turned on its side.

Part (b)

Check out the two diagrams below.

Problem 3

Answer: Choice A and Choice C

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

Explanation:

Think of stacks of coins. Let's say we had 2 stacks of 10 quarters each. The quarters are identical, so they must produce identical volumes. Those sub-volumes then add up to the same volume for each stack. Now imagine one stack is perfectly aligned and the other stack is a bit crooked. Has the volume changed for the crooked stack? No, it hasn't. We're still dealing with the same amount of coins and they yield the same volume.

For more information, check out Cavalieri's Principle.

With all that in mind, this leads us to choice C. If the bases are the same, and so are the heights, then we must be dealing with the same volumes.

On the other hand, if one base is wider (while the heights are still equal) then the wider based block is going to have more volume. This leads us to choice A.

Evaluate the expression for s = -15. -S=

Oxana [17]

Answer:

-S = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

You are asked to find the opposite of the given value.

<h3>Opposite</h3>

The opposite of an integer value is obtained by changing its sign.

S = -15

-S = -(-15) = 15

<em>Additional comment</em>

Equivalently, you are multiplying by -1. The product of an even number of minus signs is a plus sign. We usually don't write the plus sign for a numerical value.
