Let <em>x</em> = 0.555…

Then 10<em>x</em> = 5.555…

Subtract one from the other to get

10<em>x</em> - <em>x</em> = 5.555… - 0.555…

Notice how the fractional parts on the right cancel. This leaves you with

9<em>x</em> = 5

and so

<em>x</em> = 5/9

Two radar stations 5.5 miles apart are tracking an airplane. The straight line distance
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

19°

Step-by-step explanation:

I have attached an image showing this elevation.

From the image, let's first find the angle A by using cosine rule.

Thus;

8.1² = 5.5² + 13.1² - 2(5.5 × 13.1)cos A

65.61 = 30.25 + 171.61 - 144.1cos A

144.1cos A = 171.61 + 30.25 - 65.61

144.1cosA = 136.25

cosA = 136.25/144.1

cosA = 0.9455

A = cos^(-1) 0.9455

A = 19°

Select the property of equality used to arrive at the conclusion. If x = 4, then 5x = 20 the addition property of equality the m
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The Division Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Addition Property of Equality:</u> When you add something to one side of the equation, you must add the same thing to the other side.

<u>The Subtraction Property of Equality:</u> When you subtract something from one side of the equation, you must subtract the same thing from the other side.

<u>The Multiplication Property of Equality:</u> When you multiply something to one side of the equation, you must multiply the same thing to the other side.

<u>The Division Property of Equality:</u> When you divide something from one side of the equation, you must divide the same thing from the other side.

In this case, you have to divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get x = 4. That means that the division property of equality was used.

I hope this helps! Have a great day!

The rate of change of y with respect to t is proportional to 50 - y
saveliy_v [14]
We can write and solve the differential equation that fits the statement given;
 dy/dt = k(50-t)
∫dy = ∫ k(50-t)dt
= ∫ (50k - kt) dt
therefore;
y = 50kt - k/2(t²) + C
Alternatively, can be written as
  y = - k/2 (50-t)² + C)
