Here, we know 1/2 = 0.50
So, the difference between 0.50 & 0.26 is 0.24
And difference between 0 and 0.26 is 0.26
1 is very apart from 0.26 as compared to other two
So, It is closer to 1/2
Hope this helps!
There are 5280 feet in a mile:
5280ft/mi
When using proportions to solve for unknown quantities, you need to keep the same units on the same side. This means keep "ft" on the top side and "mi" on the bottom side.
I would go with the second choice.
15 16 and then 17 to be an equilateral
Use substitution
-x + 4 = 1/3x + 8
4 = 4/3x + 8
-4 = 4/3x
x = -4 * 3/4
x = -3
Then plug x into one of the original equations. In this case y = -x + 4 is the easiest.
y = -(-3) + 4
y = 7
