Answer:

$0.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Using what we know, the price of the candy bar at the moment is $1.53, triple the price from 10 years ago. So, triple cents would technically be $0.03. We divide $1.53 and $0.03 and get 51! But, it would not make sense for the price ten years ago to be 51 then go to 1.53, so we make 51 a decimal, 0.51. We can check to see if this correct, by doing 0.51 times 3, because the price is tripling, and we get $1.53! Have an awesome day! :)

Express 0.6 as a fraction.
ollegr [7]

Answer: 3/5

Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.6 is 6 tenths. So we can write 0.6 as the fraction 6/10.

Notice however that 6/10 is not in lowest terms.

So we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 10 which is 2.

So if we divide the numerator and denominator by 2, we get 3/5.

So 0.6 can be written as the fraction 3/5 which is in lowest terms.

Find the missing end point if H is the midpoint of PS. P(2,5) and H (3,4) find S (endpoint)
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

(4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint add the end points and divide by 2

P(2,5)    S ( sx, sy)  and the midpoint is and H (3,4)

X coordinate

( 2+ sx) /2 = 3

Multiply each side by 2

2+sx = 3*2

2+sx = 6

Subtract 2

sx = 4

Y coordinate

( 5+ sy) /2 = 4

Multiply each side by 2

5+sy = 4*2

5+sy = 8

Subtract 5

sy = 3

The end point is

(4,3)
