Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When comparing fractions and decimals/fractions and percentages/decimals and percentages, it's always good to convert them to have the same type on either side. However, you don't really need to with this problem.

Here's a trick: the larger the denominator is in a fraction, the smaller the value of the fraction is. If the fraction on the left were 5/10, then we know that it would be equal to 0.5 (you can convert either one). Now, since the denominator of the fraction is one greater than 10, we know that the fraction's value is just a little bit less than 5/10. This makes the fraction less than 0.5.

I hope it made sense. Brainliest would be cool but no worries.

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In the last step, you can see that the fraction $\frac{1}{5}$ has been multiplied by its reciprocal $\frac{5}{1}$ , making it cancel out. The reciprocal has been multiplied to both sides, so all you need to do is multiply $\frac{6}{3}$ · $\frac{5}{1}$ :

6 · 5 = 30

3 · 1 = 3

So now you should have the fraction:

x = $\frac{30}{3}$

But, you can still simplify the fraction by dividing 30 by 3:

x = 10

The base of an isosceles triangle is one and a half times the length of the other two sides.A smaller triangle has a perimeter t

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Perimeter of the smaller triangle = 1.75x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle = x

Therefore, length of the base = $(1\frac{1}{2})x$

Perimeter of this isosceles triangle = x + x + $(1\frac{1}{2})x$

= 2x + $(1+\frac{1}{2})x$

= 2x + x + $\frac{x}{2}$

= $\frac{5x}{2}$

Since, smaller triangle has a perimeter that is half the perimeter of the larger triangle,

Length of each corresponding side of smaller triangle will be half of the larger triangle.

Length of sides of the smaller triangle = $\frac{x}{2},\frac{x}{2},(1\frac{1}{2})\frac{x}{2}$

Perimeter of the smaller triangle = $\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{2}+(1\frac{1}{2})\frac{x}{2}$

= x + $\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{4}$

= $\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{x}{4}$

= $\frac{6}{4}x+\frac{x}{4}$

= $\frac{7}{4}x$

= 1.75x

Therefore, expression that represents the perimeter of the smaller triangle is (1.75x)

Megan hiked 15.12 miles in 6.3 hours. If Megan hiked the same number of miles each hour , how many miles did she hike each hour?

OLEGan [10]

To find how many miles per hour, we divide the number of miles hiked by the number of hours it took to hike them.

=15.12 miles ÷ 6.3 hours
=2.4 miles hiked per hour

Hope this helps! :)
