Answer: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion:

$\frac{5}{6} = \frac{x}{24}$

Divide the larger denominator by the smaller one.

$24$ ÷ $6 = 4$

Now, multiply 4 by the numerator we already have.

$\frac{5}{y}$ times $\frac{4}{y}$ = $\frac{20}{y}$

Now, add the denominator back.

You get $\frac{20}{24}$ . Hope this helps you!

The correct answer is: [A]: " $\frac{8}{729}$ " .
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
We are asked to simplify:

  → $(\frac{2}{9})^3$

_________________________________________________________
Note the following property of exponents:
_________________________________________________________

$( \frac{a}{b})^n$   = $\frac{(a^n)}{(b^n)}$ ; { b $\neq$ 0 } .

_________________________________________________________
As such:

→ $( \frac{2}{9})^3$ ;

= $\frac{2^3}{9^3}$ = $\frac{(2*2*2)}{(9*9*9)}$ = $\frac{8}{729}$ .

_____________________________________________________________

The answer is: " $\frac{8}{729}$ " ;

→ which is: "Answer choice: [A]:  " $\frac{8}{729}$ " .

Hope this answer—and explanation—is of some help to you.

Answer:

32.5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the area by dividing the figure into two shapes. If we solve for the area of a square and a triangle, we can add them together.

First, we can solve for the area of the 5x5 square. To find the area, we can multiply the two dimensions.

5 · 5 = 25 units²

Next, we can find the area of the triangle. It has an equal height to the square, so the height of the triangle is 5 units. The width isn't specified. Instead, we are shown that the width of both the square and the triangle equals 8 units. If we subtract the width of the square from the total, we can find the width of the triangle, too.

8 - 5 = 3

So, the height and the width of the triangle are 5x3. To find the area we can multiply these together, and then divide the product by two.

5 · 3 = 15

$\frac{15}{2}$ = 7.5

The area of the triangle is 7.5 units².

Finally, we can add the area of the triangle and the square together.

25 + 7.5 = 32.5

The area of the figure, then, is 32.5 units².

The answer is the last option.

I hope this helps ^^

Help please will give brainiest!<br> Write the equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form.

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Y=-2/3+4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the equation can be solved with

2-4/3-0 y2-y1 divide by x2-x1 which gives 3/2 and the y intercept the point at which the slope hits the y intercept which is 4. Also the slope is negative as it’s pointed downwards.
