Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the trail is expressed as;

Slope = vertical distance/horizontal distance

Given

Vertical distance = 60metres

Horizontal distance= 300metres

Substitute

Slope = 60/300

Slope = 6×10/30×10

Slope = 6/30

Slope = 6×1/6×5

Slope = 1/5

Hence the slope of the trail in reduced fraction is 1/5

Solve the equation.
Dafna1 [17]

Hi there!

<u>Here are all the steps into solving this equation :</u>

\frac{9z+4}{5} <u>- 8</u> = 5.4

Add 8 on each side of the equation → 5.4 + 8 = 13.4

\frac{9z+4}{5} = 13.4

Multiply each side of the equation by 5 → 13.4 × 5 = 67

9z <u>+ 4</u> = 67

Subtract 4 from each side of the equation → 67 - 4 = 63

<u>9</u>z = 63

Divide each side of the equation by 9 → 63 ÷ 9 = 7

z = 7


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Which of the following statements is true of chords?
nydimaria [60]
All of those are true, except the one about the radius.  Because alternate definition of diameter uses the idea of chord. So, both ends of a chord have to be on the circle, but one end of a radius is at the center, so a radius can't be a chord.
