Answer:

1/8 is less than 5/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Alright so the first thing we need to do here is make the bottom part of both fraction (the denominator) the same number.

To do this we need to find the GCF of the denominators (Greatest common factor of 8 and 6)

So basically what does 8 and 6 both go into equally and what do we need to multiply by to get there.

In this case 16 is a good number. Since 8 goes into 16 as well 6 goes into 18.

But what we need to multiply by is different.

For the 8 we need to multiply both numbers in the fraction by 2 to get to 16.

Like so:

1/8

1 x 2

8 x 2

=

2/18

Now we can do the same thing for the fraction but instead use 3 because you need to multiply 6 x 3 to find 18.

Like so :

5/6

5 x 3

6 x 3

=

15/18

So now we have two fractions that have the same bottom number and now we can just go off the numerators (top number) and see which one is larger.

So 1/8 = 2/18

So 5/6 = 15/18

So going off that you can see 2/18 is less than 15/18 and conclude that 1/8 is less than 5/6.

I hope this helps!

If you have any questions or concerns do message me or comment!

which of the following sets could be the sides of a right triangle? {2,3, square root 13} {5,5,2 square root 10} {5,12,15}
anastassius [24]

All of these sets meet the requirements of the triangle inequality. The sum of any two numbers in the set is greater than the third one. (You really only need to check that the sum of the smallest two is greater than the largest.)

It can help to resolve the numbers that are only indicated as to value.

√13 ≈ 3.606

2√10 ≈ 6.325

_____

Your comparisons can be ...

2 + 3 = 5 > 3.606 . . . is a triangle

5 + 5 = 10 > 6.325 . . . . . . is a triangle

5 + 12 = 17 > 15 . . . . . . . . is a triangle

Given z1 and z2 below. Calculate z1/z2 and write your answer in rcistheta form.
andre [41]

Answer:

  (2/9)cis(30°)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express the two numbers in magnitude∠angle form, then find their ratio.

  |z1| = 3√((-1)² +(√3)²) = 3√4 = 6

  ∠z1 = arctan((3√3)/(-3)) = -arctan(√3) = 120°

  z2 = 27∠90°

So, the ratio is ...

  z1/z2 = (6∠120°)/(27∠90°) = (6/27)∠(120°-90°)

  z1/z2 = (2/9)∠30°

Can someone Please help me ???<br> If you can help me ill give you 20 points and brainliest :)
Phoenix [80]

First, classify each line segments of triangle that are the same in both triangles.

RS = XU

RT = XW

ST = WU

Second, divide to find the scale ratio.

7.5/3 = 2.5

16/6.4 = 2.5

15/6 = 2.5

Since the scale ratios are identical, the triangles are similar.

Therefore, the answer is [ Yes, the sides are in the ratio 2:5 ]

Best of Luck!
