Answer:

Which means that this equation is also true: 8/9 > 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 8/9 less than 1/9? Is 8/9 smaller than 1/9? These are the same questions with one answer.

To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below:

8/9 = 0.889

1/9 = 0.111

Then, we compare the two decimal numbers to get the answer.

0.889 is not less than 0.111.

Therefore, 8/9 is not less than 1/9 and the answer to the question "Is 8/9 less than 1/9?" is no.

What is x squared equals one twenty one

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 121

You are solving for the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Root both sides:

√(x²) = √(121)

x = √121 = √(11 * 11)

x = 11

x = 11 is your answer.

These two trapezoids are similar What is the correct way to complete the similarity statement?

pentagon [3]

Option A:

$\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$

Solution:

ABCD and EGFH are two trapezoids.

To determine the correct way to tell the two trapezoids are similar.

Option A: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$

AB = GF (side)

BC = FH (side)

CD = HE (side)

DA = EG (side)

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$ is the correct way to complete the statement.

Option B: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{EGFH}$

In the given image length of AB ≠ EG.

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{EGFH}$ is the not the correct way to complete the statement.

Option C: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{FHEG}$

In the given image length of AB ≠ FH.

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{FHEG}$ is the not the correct way to complete the statement.

Option D: $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{HEGF}$

In the given image length of AB ≠ HE.

So, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{HEGF}$ is the not the correct way to complete the statement.

Hence, $\mathrm{ABCD} \sim \mathrm{GFHE}$ is the correct way to complete the statement.

Hellen used a coupon she received in the mail at a local boutique that decreased her purchase of $85.20 by $12.78. Her sister us

Over [174]

Answer:

y = 12665 (100⁻¹) + b

Step-by-step explanation:

To model this relationship, you're to write the equation of a line; in the form

y = mx + b

Now let y represent the full coupon value,

mx represent the amount spent by Hellen and her sister

and b, the change that's left on the coupon.

So, the summary of Hellen's transaction is:

$85.2 became $(85.2 - 12.78) which is = $72.42

The summary of her sister's transaction is:

$63.8 became $(63.8 - 9.57) which is = $54.23

So y - (72.42 + 54.23) = b

y - 126.65 = b

y = 126.65 + b

Separating m from x in mx, you have

y = 12665 x 1/100 + b

y = 12665 (100⁻¹) + b

Where m = 12,665 and x = 100⁻¹
