One eighth is less than one seventh

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serjik [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that 1/8 is less than 1/7, the easiest way to do is convert it to decimals

1/8 = 0.125

1/7 = 0.14285714285 (Estimated - 0.14)

0.14 is a larger number than 0.125, therefore 1/8 is less than 1/7

PARAMETRIC EQUATIONS HELP!!!
Alona [7]

Answer:

1. Option A

2. Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

I would like to elaborate on the answer to the second question, since the first answer is actually  option a. Why? The question asks for a parametric equation, not set, so it would be choice a.

2. x=3t + 5 - isolate t

t=(x-5)/3 - substitute into the second equation

y = [(x-5)/3]^2 - 1

your solution is  option b

Brandon sights a helicopter above a building that is 200 feet away at an angle of elevation of 30 degrees. To the nearest foot,
Firlakuza [10]
The problem says that <span>Brandon sights a helicopter above a building that is 200 feet away at an angle of elevation of 30 degrees. So, you can calculate the height asked, by following this procedure:
</span>
 Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg

 α=30°
 Opposite leg=x
 Adjacent leg=200 feet

 When you substitute these values into the formula above (Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg), you have:

 Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
 Tan(30°)=x/200
 
 You must clear "x":

 x=200xTan(30°)

 Therefore, the value of "x" is:

 x=115 feet
<span>
 How high above the ground the is the helicopter?

 The answer is: 115 feet</span>
