Chase lives 1 and one half blocks west of Ellie. They draw a number line to model this situation. Because Ellie lives 1 and thre

e fifths blocks east of​ school, they give her house the coordinate 1 and three fifths . Chase incorrectly claims that the coordinate of his house is 3 and one tenth . What is the correct coordinate of Chase​'s ​house? What is Chase​'s likely​ error?

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

A number line is a line which contains numbers marked at intervals (usually regular intervals). Points to the right of the origin are positive numbers while those to the left are negative numbers.

The school is used as the origin. Ellie house is 1 and three fifths blocks east (to the right) of the school. This means that it is + 1 and three fifths (+8/5).

Chase house is 1 and one half blocks (3/2) west of Ellie. Since it is west then it is to the left. Hence the coordinate of chase house = 8/5 - 3/2 = 1/10

Hence the coordinate of chase house is 1/10(one tenths).

The error may be as a result of thinking chase house is to the east of Ellie, hence adding to get  3 and one tenth.

Find the Value of X (angles)
STatiana [176]

Answer:

x= 55

Step-by-step explanation:

The  two angles add to 180 degrees since they form a straight line

2x+70 =180

Subtract 70 from each side

2x+70-70=180-70

2x= 110

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 110/2

x= 55

Carlos's restaurant check is for $24.50. If he wants to add a 17% tip, what total amount should he pay?
Licemer1 [7]
First, convert the 17% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 17%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "17%" becomes 17% / 100% = 0.17 in terms of a real mathematical number.
Second, you need to find out what 17% of your $24.50 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.17 by $24.50

0.17 x $24.50=$4.16.
So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $4.16.

This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)

$24.50 + $4.16 = $28.67.

How would you convert an angle in degrees to an angle in radians?
Scilla [17]
For reference, one full circle is 360 degrees or 2pi radians.

If we were to convert 360 degrees to radians, we could set up the following equation:

360k = 2pi

where k is a constant. By solving for k, we can find what value we must multiply any angle in degrees by to get its radian counterpart.

Divide both sides by 360:

k = 2pi/360

Reduce:

k = pi/180

So to convert an angle from degrees to radians, multiply it by pi/180. For example, 120 degrees would be:

120 * pi/180 = 2pi/3 radians

the volleyball team needs new uniforms. the students plan to sell plush toy Eagles ( the school mascot) for $5 each. The student
sammy [17]

Answer:

Company C

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide the amount of money it all costs to the number of plushies they are selling it for.

A: 34.08/12 = $2.84 each

B: 42.90/15 = $2.86 each

C: 50.58/18 = $2.81 each

So C has the least amount of money spent for a greater amount of plushies so C would be the Best Buy.
