Answer: 26 4/5 miles pee gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Jack drove 33 1/2 miles and that he used 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline. The unit rate for miles per gallon will be calculated by dividing 33 1/2 by 1 1/4. This will be:

= 33 1/2 ÷ 1 1/4

= 26 4/5 miles per gallon

Which expression has a positive quotient?

svp [43]

Answer:

Only 1st option Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds has positive quotient.

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve to find out Which expression has a positive quotient.

We know the division rule: $\frac{-a}{-b}=\frac{a}{b}$ and $\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{-a}{b}$

We will use these rules

1) Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds

$=\frac{-\frac{3}{4} }{-\frac{2}{3} }\\=-\frac{3}{4}\times -\frac{3}{2}\\=\frac{9}{8}$

The quotient is positive.

2) Negative StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction divided by 3 and one-fifth

$\frac{-\frac{1}{8} }{3\frac{1}{5} }\\=\frac{-\frac{1}{8} }{\frac{16}{5} }\\=-\frac{1}{18} \times \frac{5}{16}\\=-\frac{5}{288}$

The quotient is negative.

3) 2 and StartFraction 2 over 7 EndFraction divided by negative one-fifth

$\frac{2\frac{2}{7} }{-\frac{1}{5} }\\= \frac{\frac{16}{7} }{-\frac{1}{5} }\\=\frac{16}{7} \times -5\\=-\frac{80}{7}$

The quotient is negative.

4) Negative 6 divided by Five-thirds

$\frac{-6}{\frac{5}{3} }\\=-6 \times \frac{3}{5}\\=-\frac{18}{5}$

The quotient is negative.

So, only 1st option Negative three-fourths divided by Negative two-thirds has positive quotient.

Option A is correct.

Charra [1.4K]

The angles diagonally opposite each other are congruent while those adjacent to each other add up to 180 degrees. You can get eight congruent angles with a transversal if the two lines are parallel, because each angle would be 90.
