No.....look at it as if it was a pie......1 slice out of 5 as aposed to 1 slice of 4.
therefore 1/4 is larger

To solve this let write the equation

(1/5) > (1/4) True or false

Hard to compare without a common denominator. So lets get a common denominator 20 seems like a good number

(4/20) > (5/20) we can see that 1/4 is greater than 1/5 so the answer is false

The following blank indicates a missing operation in the equation.

The answer would be 5/2q+9r+6r-20s

Explanation
We have the equation
5(1/2q+3r-4s)
which would equal
5/2q+15r-20s

so with the information
We can subtract 6r from 15r to get 9r
15r-6r=9r
+9r would be the missing piece

So we substitute it in to make the equation true.
5/2q(+9r)+6r-20s
Hope this helps or was correct

Angle θ is in standard position and (−6,−3) is a point on the terminal side of θ. What is the exact value of csc θ in simplest f

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \csc\theta=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since $\displaystyle \csc\theta=\frac{1}{\sin\theta}=\frac{1}{\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}}=\frac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Opposite}}$ , we need to find the hypotenuse given our corresponding opposite and adjacent lengths of -6 and -3 accounting for Quadrant III:

$(-6)^2+(-3)^2=c^2\\\\36+9=c^2\\\\45=c^2\\\\\sqrt{45}=c\\\\c=3\sqrt{5}$

Thus, $\displaystyle \csc\theta=\frac{\text{Hypotenuse}}{\text{Opposite}}=\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{-6}=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$
