Answer:

1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the given number as the numerator and place 1 in the denominator right below the decimal point followed by the number of zeros required accordingly.

In this case, 0.05 has two numbers after the decimal, so, we place 100 in the denominator and remove the decimal point. This will make it 5/100

Step 2: Then, this fraction can be simplified. 5/100 = 1/20

Thus, 0.05 as a fraction is written as 1/20

Evaluate the expression for s = -15. -S=

Oxana [17]

Answer:

-S = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

You are asked to find the opposite of the given value.

<h3>Opposite</h3>

The opposite of an integer value is obtained by changing its sign.

S = -15

-S = -(-15) = 15

Additional comment

Equivalently, you are multiplying by -1. The product of an even number of minus signs is a plus sign. We usually don't write the plus sign for a numerical value.

Find the surface area of this triangular prism. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

$390ft^2\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so we have 2 (congruent) triangles and 3 rectangles.

Your main approach to this problem should be to find the area of each of the faces and adding them up to get to your final answer. Your question makes a point of including the correct unit in your answer. Since this is surface area, the unit would be $ft^2$
