Mathematics

Answer:

2/5: 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 of a mile : 16/20 of a mile

It can be made equivalent in 2 ways. Either make the first fraction equivalent by multiplying it with 4 or make the second fraction equivalent to the first by dividing it by 4

  1. 2*4/5*4: 16/20

        = 8/20: 16/20

2.  2/5: 16/4/20/4

  = 2/5: 4/5

It is better to choose a smaller fraction as they are easy to solve .

So the total distance he covered = 2/5+ 4/5= 6/5= 1 1/5 miles or 1.20 miles from school to home.

Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression: <br> 2s+(−4s)=?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

2s+\left(-4s\right)=-2s is the equivalent expression as 2s+\left(-4s\right) is equal to -2s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

2s+\left(-4s\right)

As we know that

  • Like terms are said to be the terms which hold the same variables raised to the same power.
  • For example, 3x and 2x are like terms as they contain the same variable x raised to the same power.

Lets solve the expression

2s+\left(-4s\right)

\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a

2s-4s

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:terms:}\:2s-4s=-2s

-2s

Therefore,

2s+\left(-4s\right)=-2s is the equivalent expression as 2s+\left(-4s\right) is equal to -2s.

The perimeter of a triangle is 27 feet. One side is 3 feet longer than the shortest side, and the longest side is twice as long
dangina [55]

Answer:

6, 9, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the shortest side. Using the information you're given, you can create an equation. 27= s + s+3 + 2s. Now just solve the equation. Subtract 3 from both sides. 24=4s. Divide by 4 on both sides. 6=s. So the shortest side is 6 feet long, so we add 3 to that for the one that is neither the shortest or the longest. That side is 9 feet long. We double s to get 12, which is the longest side.

Which of these numbers is irrational?<br> -3.5<br> 3.5<br> ОО<br> 35<br> √5 help
Molodets [167]

Answer:

  √5 is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is one that can be written exactly as an integer or ratio of integers. Written as a decimal number, it will have a finite number of digits, or a repeating decimal fraction.

<h3>Application</h3>

Usually, a number that can <em>only</em> be expressed <em>exactly</em> using a <em>symbol</em> will be irrational. For square roots, any root of an integer other than a perfect square will be irrational.

The integer 5 is not a perfect square. It is between the squares 2²=4 and 3²=9. The square root of 5 is irrational.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

A reduced fraction whose denominator has factors other than 2 or 5 will translate to a repeating decimal. The number of repeating digits may be as many as 1 less than the denominator. For example, 1/19 has an 18-digit repeating decimal equivalent.
