Answer:

Length = 41\frac{7}{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Width = 8\frac{1}{2}

Length =  4\frac{7}{8} times as long as the width

Required

Determine the length

To do this, we simply multiply the length by 4\frac{7}{8}

So, we have:

Length = 4\frac{7}{8} * Width

Substitute 8\frac{1}{2} for width

Length = 4\frac{7}{8} * 8\frac{1}{2}

Convert to improper numbers

Length = \frac{39}{8} * \frac{17}{2}

Length = \frac{39*17}{8*2}

Length = \frac{663}{16}

Length = 41\frac{7}{16}

Answer:

0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

The hundredths place is the place between the tenths and thousandths place. For example, the digit in the tenths place in 0.073 is 7.

To round to the nearest hundredth, we look to the digit right of the hundredth digit, 7. We notice that the digit in the thousandths place is 3. When rounding, if a number is 4 or less, we change that digit to a 0, along with the digits beyond it. If a number is 5 or more, we bump up the digit to the next number. Since 3 is less than 4, we change 0.073 to 0.07.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡

I don't know to find the answer to 8. Can someone explain to me?

Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.

A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'

B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)

C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)

D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n

_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.

The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.

 <span>for the first part, realize that the hour and minute hands are moving at different rates; in one hour, the minute hands moves all the way around the face of the clock, and thus moves a total of 360 degrees or 2 pi radians; the hour hand moves only 1/12 away around the clock, so covers only 30 degrees or Pi/6 radians. 

Now, the LINEAR distance traveled by the tip of each hand is also determined by the length of the hand. In the case of the minute hand, it sweeps out a circle of radius 10 cm, so traces out a circle of radius 10 cm. Since the circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r, the minute hand (remember it made one complete cycle) covers a distance of 2*pi*10cm=20 Pi cm 

The hour hand covers only 1/12 a circle, but that circle is only 6 cm in radius, so the distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand is: 

1/12 *[2 *pi*r]=1/12*[12*pi]=pi 

so the difference is 19pi 

for the last part, you should draw a diagram of the two hands, the minute hand is 10 cm in length, the hour hand is 6 cm in length, and they are 30 degrees apart...from that drawing, see if you can figure out the remaining leg of the triangle you can form from them 

good luck</span><span>
