Pizza palace cuts the medium size pizza into 8 slices.

Pizza pioneers cuts the same size pizza into 16 slices.

Jasmine ate 4/16 pizza in Pizza pioneers,

The ratio of Pizza palace slices to Pizza pioneer slices is;

Pizza palace : Pizza pioneer = 8 : 16 = 1 : 2

Let fraction of pizza in Pizza palace to 4/16 pizza in Pizza pioneer be;

x : 4/16 , Simplified becomes x : 1/4

<u>Comparing ratios:</u>

Pizza Palace slices : Pizza Pioneer slices = 1 : 2

and

Pizza Palace fraction : Pizza Pioneer fraction = x : 1/4

As Pizza Palace slices are half those in Pizza pioneer;

x should be half the fraction of slices Jasmine ate in Pizza Pioneer

i.e x = 1/2 × 1/4 = 1/8

Therefore the fraction of pizza from Pizza Palace which is equal to 4/16 slices from Pizza Pioneer is 1/8 .

What is (w-4/9)(-2/3)=-4/5
pshichka [43]
<span>(-2/3)*(w-(4/9)) = -4/3 // + -4/3

(-2/3)*(w-(4/9))-(-4/3) = 0

(-2/3)*(w-4/9)+4/3 = 0

4/3-2/3*(w-4/9) = 0

(-2/3*3*(w-4/9))/3+4/3 = 0

4-2/3*3*(w-4/9) = 0

44/9-2*w = 0

(44/9-2*w)/3 = 0

(44/9-2*w)/3 = 0 // * 3

44/9-2*w = 0

44/9-2*w = 0 // - 44/9

-2*w = -44/9 // : -2

w = -44/9/(-2)

w = 22/9

w = 22/9</span>

If you multiply two decimals less than 1 can you predict whether the product will be less than or greater than either of the fac
ki77a [65]

I predict that the product will be less than either of the factors.

When you multiply two numbers less than ' 1 ', you are
calculating the size of a piece of a piece.  It winds up being
smaller than either of the pieces.

Find the measure of angle 1
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
In ∆FDH, there are two slash marks in two of its legs. This indicates that this triangle is isosceles. If a triangle is isosceles, then it will have two congruent sides and therefore have two congruent angles.

In ∆FDH, angle D is already given to us as the measure of 80°. We can find out the measure of the other angles of this triangle by using the equation:

80 + 2x = 180

Subtract 80 from both sides of the equation.

2x = 100

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 50

This means that angle F and angle H in ∆FDH both measure 50°.

Now, moving over to the next smaller triangle in the picture is ∆DHG. In this triangle, there are also two legs that are congruent which once again indicates that this triangle is isosceles.

First, we have to solve for angle DHG and we do that by using the information obtained from solving for the angles of the other triangle.

**In geometry, remember that two or more consecutive angles that form a line will always be supplementary; the angles add up to 180°.**

In this case angle DHF and angle DHG are consecutive angles which form a linear pair. So, we can use the equation:

Angle DHF + Angle DHG = 180°

50° + Angle DHG = 180°.

Angle DHG = 130°.

Now that we know the measure of one angle in ∆DHG, we can use the same method as the previous step for solving the missing angles. Use the equation:

130 + 2x = 180

2x = 50

x = 25

The other two missing angles of ∆DHG are 25°. This means that the measure of angle 1 is also 25°.

Solution: 25°
