Answer:

(b) Mark the intersection points of the arcs, and draw a line through those two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Obviously, the last step in bisecting a line segment is to draw the line or point that cuts the line segment into two equal parts. The step describing the drawing of such a segment is ...

You would do well to perform these steps with a real compass and straightedge on a real piece of paper. The physical act will help you remember how it works and what the steps are. Perhaps it will even help you understand why it works.

Write the rational number as a decimal. Show your work. 5/9 -3/8 -3/11.

Bad White [126]

I have memorized facts about fractions like these, so can tell you ...

$\dfrac{5}{9}=0.5\overline{5}\\\\-\dfrac{3}{8}=-3\times 0.125=-0.375\\\\-\dfrac{3}{11}=-0.27\overline{27}$

_____

A fraction with 9 as a denominator is a repeating 1-digit decimal with the decimal digit being the numerator of the fraction.

A fraction with 11 as a denominator is a repeating 2-digit decimal with the two digits being 9 times the numerator of the fraction.

1/8 = 0.125, so any multiple of 1/8 is that multiple of 0.125.

Yo im not good at this stuff, can someone help me?

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

21 kWh

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 25% from the original amount.

25% of 28 kWh is ...

0.25 × 28 kWh = 7.00 kWh

Subtracting this from 28 kWh, we find the usage after reduction to be ...

28 kWh - 7 kWh = 21 kWh

2. We know that if we reduce 100% of a quantity by 25%, then the resulting amount is (100 -25)% = 75% of the original. As a fraction, this is 75/100 = 3/4 of the original amount. Then the reduced usage is ...

(3/4) × (28 kWh) = 3·(7·4)/4 kWh = 3·7 kWh = 21 kWh

Mario must reduce his usage to 21 kWh or less.

Answer:

- 1 < x < 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 6 < 2x - 4 < 4 \\ - 6 + 4 < 2x < 4 + 4 \\ - 2 < 2x < 8 \\ \frac{ - 2}{2} < x < \frac{8}{2} \\ \purple{ \boxed{ \bold{ - 1 < x < 4}}}$
