Which fraction has a terminating decimal as its decimal expansion?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

fraction which has a terminating decimal as its decimal expansion is:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 4 fractions:

1/3 , 1/5 , 1/7 and 1/9

We have to find which fraction has terminating decimal.

1/3 = 0.33333...

1/5 = 0.2

1/7 = 0.142857142857...

1/9 =0.11111.....

Hence, fraction which has a terminating decimal as its decimal expansion is:

1/5

A 6 foot tall football player casts a 16 inch shadow at the same time stadium we discussed at six for shadow how tall the bleach
katrin [286]
You need to use a ratio of height (H) to shadow length (L) to solve the first problem. It's basically a use of similar triangles, with two perpendicular sides, and with the shadow making the same angle with the vertical.

6 ft = 72 ins, so that rH/L = 72/16 = 9/2 for the player.

So the bleachers are 9/2 x 6 ft = 27 ft.

For the second problem, 9 ft = 108 in, so that the ratio of the actual linear dimensions to the plan's linear dimensions are 9ft/(1/2in) = 2 x 108 = 216.

So the stage will have dimensions 216 times larger than 1.75" by 3".

That would be 31ft 6ins x 54ft.

Live long and prosper.

What is the value of q?
andre [41]

Answer: here

Step-by-step explanation:riangles QST and RST are similar.  Therefore, the following is true:

q       s

--- = ----   This results in 10q=rs.

r      10

Also, since RST is a right triangle, 4^2 + s^2 = q^2.

Since QST is also a right triangle, s^2 + 10^2 = r^2.  

           4      s

Also:  ---- = -----    which leads to s^2 = 40

           s      10

Because of this, 4^2 + s^2 = q^2 becomes 16 + 40 = 56 = q^2

Then q = sqrt(56) = sqrt(4)*sqrt(14) = 2*sqrt(14) (answer)

hope it helps

Each pair of figures below is similar. Find the lengths of all unknown sides​
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

  a) w = 8; y = 5.25

  b) x = 10; z = 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Dimensions on the smaller figure are FA/F'A' = 3/4 times those on the larger figure.

  6 = (3/4)w

  w = 24/3 = 8

  y = (3/4)·7 = 21/4 = 5.25

__

b) Dimensions on the smaller figure are ER/E'R' = 9/15 = 3/5 times those on the larger figure.

  6 = (3/5)x

  x = 30/3 = 10

  z = (3/5)12 = 36/5 = 7.2
