Answer:

5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime factorizations are ...

10 = 2·5

12 = 2·2·3

Then *10* = 5 and *12* = 3, so *10*/*12* = 5/3.

A cyclist estimates that he will bike 80 miles this week. He actually bikes 75.5 miles. What is the percent error of the cyclist

maw [93]

Answer:

<em>The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

The cyclist estimates he will bike 80 miles this week, but he really bikes 75.5 miles.

The error of his estimate in miles can be calculated as the difference between his estimate and the real outcome:

Error = 80 miles - 75.5 miles = 4.5 miles

To calculate the error as a percent, we divide that quantity by the original estimate and multiply by 100%:

Error% = 4.5 / 80 * 100 = 5.625%

Rounding to the nearest hundredth:

The percent error of the cyclist's estimate is 5.63%

The sixth grade art students are making a mosaic using tiles in shapes of right triangles. Each tiles has the leg measures of 5.

Drupady [299]

Given:

Each right triangular tiles has the leg measures of 5.2 cm and 6 cm.

There are 150 tiles in the mosaic.

To find:

The area of the mosaic.

Solution:

We know that, the area of a triangle is:

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Base\times height$

So, the area of Each right triangular tile is:

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5.2\times 6$

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 31.2$

$A=15.6$

There are 150 tiles in the mosaic. So, the area of the mosaic is:

$Area=15.6\times 150$

$Area=2340$

Therefore, the total area of the mosaic is 2340 cm ².
