They are multiplicative inverses. For example, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2. They are used when dividing fractions

1. 5 in and 1/3 in: Area = 5/3 in^2

2. 5 in and 4/3 in: Area= 20/3 in^2

3. 5/2 in and 4/3 in: Area=10/3 in^2

4. 7/6 in and 6/7 in: Area = 1 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 5 in and 1/3 in

Here,

$Let\\l=5\\w=\frac{1}{3}\\Area=l*w\\=5*\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{5}{3}\ in^2$

2. 5 in and 4/3 in

Here,

$l= 5\ in\\w=\frac{4}{3}\ in\\Area=l*w\\=5*\frac{4}{3}\\=\frac{20}{3}\ in^2$

3. 5/2 in and 4/3 in

$let\\l=\frac{5}{2}\\w=\frac{4}{3}\\Area= \frac{5}{2}*\frac{4}{3}\\=\frac{20}{6}=\frac{10}{3}\ in^2$

4. 7/6 in and 6/7 in

Let

$l=\frac{6}{7}\\w=\frac{7}{6}\\Area=l*w\\=\frac{6}{7}*\frac{7}{6}\\=1\ in^2$

Hence,

1. 5 in and 1/3 in: Area = 5/3 in^2

2. 5 in and 4/3 in: Area= 20/3 in^2

3. 5/2 in and 4/3 in: Area=10/3 in^2

4. 7/6 in and 6/7 in: Area = 1 in^2

Find angle B. What is angle B.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

B=45 Degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use law of sines to answer. Law of Sines states that $\frac{sin(a)}{A} =\frac{sin(b)}{B}$ . That means that $\frac{sin(60)}{4\sqrt{6} }=\frac{sin(b)}{8}$ . Multiplying 8 to both sides gives us $\frac{8sin(60)}{4\sqrt{6} }=sin(b)$ . By using inverse of sin, we get $b = sin^{-1} (\frac{8sin(60)}{4\sqrt{6} } )$ . Plugging that into a calculator gives us b=45 degrees.

The expression below represents the number of trees planted by an environmental agency after t years.

Hatshy [7]

The initial number of trees is when t = 0:-
1500 * t^0 = 1500 so the answer is either a or c.
The value 1.02 represents a 2% increase so the answer is Option c.
