8 0

Answer:

A. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 8 eights in a whole, and a whole is equal to the number 1. The number 2 consists of two wholes, and so we multiply 8 by 2.

8 wholes in each 1 × 2 ones = 16 wholes

Now, we know that the number 2 is equal to 16 wholes, so now we need to find how much 1/2 of a whole is worth.

1 whole = 8 eights, so divided by 2, it would be 4 eights for a half of a whole.

So, we add 16 + 4 to get the result of 20.

It takes Ben 2 days to write reports, and it takes Kate 3 days to write reports. Bens rate, in reports per day, is how much grea

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Ben's rate is $\dfrac{1}{6}$ greater than Kate's rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If it takes Ben 2 days to write reports, then his rate is $\dfrac{1}{2}$ of reports per day.

2. If it takes Kate 3 days to write reports, then her rate is $\dfrac{1}{3}$ of reports per day.

3. Ben's rate is

$\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{3-2}{6}=\dfrac{1}{6}$

greater than Kate's rate.

Find <_6 if m <_8 = 120 degrees

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since p is parallel to q, <6 and <8 are congruent because of corresponding angles.

m<8=m<6

120=m<6

Since m<8 is 120, and the two angles are congruent, the m<6 is also 120 degrees.

Perpendicular lines intersect to form four right angles. never always sometimes

natima [27]

Answer:

Always

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of a perpendicular line is that it intersects another at a 90 degree angle. Using this, by verticals, the opposite corner angle must also be 90-degrees, and since one side of a line is 180 degrees, 180-90 = 90, which ensure the rest of the angles will be 90 degrees too.
