Answer;-1.5238095238
First step; 8/15

8/15 = 0.53 and so on in a repeating form. (0.53333333333)

Divide; 0.53 / -0.35

= -1.5238095238

Remember, when dividing fracitons, invert and multiply or
(a/b)/(c/d)=(a/b)(d/c)=(ad)/(bc)

also, (+)/(-)=(-)

convert -0.35 to fraction
-0.35=-0.35/1=-3.5/10=-35/100

now we have
(8/15)/(-35/100)
we know the end result is negative so discard that
(8/15)/(35/100)
35/100 simpifies to 7/20
(8/15)/(7/20)
invert ane multiply
(8/15)(20/7)
(8*20)/(15*7)
160/105
32/21
negative
-32/21

lisa goes to school for 7 hours per day works 3 hours per day and sleeps 8 hours per day. what is the ratio of hours lisa works

frozen [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

lisa goes to school for 7 hours per day lisa works 3 hours per day

Lisa sleeps 8 hours per day.

For the ratio of hours lisa works to hours lisa sleeps

ratio of hours lisa works to hours lisa sleeps= hours Lisa works/hours Lisa sleeps

ratio of hours lisa works to hours lisa sleeps= 3/8

ratio of hours lisa works to hours lisa sleeps= 3:8

Which statement is true about the equations-3x 4y 12 and tx 1?

nydimaria [60]

We need to solve -3x+4y=12 for x

Let's start by adding -4y to both sides

-3x+4y-4y=12-4y

-3x=-4y+12

x = (-4y+12)/-3

x= 4/3 y -4

Now substitute 4/3 y -4 for x in 1/4 x - 1/3 y =1

1/4 x -1/3 y =1

1/4 (4/3 y -4) -1/3 y =1

Use the distributive property

(1/4)(4/3 y) + (1/4)(-4) -1/3 y =1

1/3 y -1 - 1/3 y =1

Now combine like terms

(1/3y -1/3y) + (-1) =1

= -1

-1 = 1

Now add 1 to both sides

0=2

So there are no Solutions

The answer is C

I hope that's help Will :)

Answer:

B. $\overline A \overline C \cong \overline B \overline D$

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse leg theorem (HL) requires the proof that the hypotenuse and the corresponding leg of the triangles to be equal in length. From the diagram, it can be found that $\overline D \overline C$ is a common (shared) side of both triangles, so the additional fact needed is for the hypotenuses to be the same length.

∴ $\overline A \overline C \cong \overline B \overline D$ is the additional fact needed to prove $\triangle ADC \cong \triangle BCD$

Hope this helps :)

The number x is reduced by 25% and then halved

Maksim231197 [3]

Since it says the number x , this means x represents a number , reduced by 25 means that this is most likely half of 25 so whats half of 25%?

well 5 * 5 = 25 , so here is your answer = 5

Find the dimensions of a deck which will have railings on only three sides. There is 28 m of railing available and the deck must

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The largest possible area of the deck is 87.11 m² with dimensions;

Width = 9.33 m

Breadth = 9.33 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a given dimension increases as the dimension covers more equidistant dimension from the center, which gives the quadrilateral with largest dimension being that of a square

Given that the railings will be placed on three sides only and the third side will cornered or left open, such that the given length of railing can be shared into three rather than four to increase the area

The length of the given railing = 28 m

The sides of the formed square area by sharing the railing into three while the fourth side is left open are then equal to 28/3 each

The area of a square of side s = s²

The largest possible area of the deck = (28/3)² = 784/9 = 87.11 m² with dimensions;

Width = 28/3 m = 9.33 m

Breadth = 28/3 m = 9.33 m.
