Answer:

Hey there! your answer should be the first choice, -1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

multiplication and division in fraction are way easier than adding and subtracting them since you don't have to use factoring much.

so first you set them aside (\frac{1}{2} )(\frac{-1}{4})

then, literally just multiply them across.

meaning, top times top a.k.a. the numerator and bottom times bottom a.k.a. the denominator

check this little cheat code

positive x positive = positive

negative x negative = positive

positive x negative = negative

negative x positive = negative

so lets do the top, the numerators first: 1 x (-1) = -1

then the bottom, the denominators next: 2 x 4 = 8

now replace your answer with that and you get \frac{-1}{8}  which leads you with the first answer choice.

I hope this helps! :)

On the way home from her friend's house Sandy skateboards 30% of the way, walks 1/2 of the way, and then skips the rest of the w
netineya [11]

Answer:

0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the walking to percent

\frac{1}{2} \times 100 = 50

Add both skateboarding and walking

30\% + 50\%\\\\= 30 + 50\\\\= 80

Now, subtract that from a whole percent

100 - 80 = 20\\\\20\%

Convert it to a decimal

20\% = \frac{20}{100} \\\\=20 \div 100\\\\= 0.2

Therefore, in decimal, 0.2 is the number that shows the portion of the distance Sandy skips.

Answer:

Therefore 'x' is equal to 65.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

In Right Angle Triangle ABC

∠ B = 90°

AC = Hypotenuse = 12

CB = Adjacent Side = 5

To Find:

∠ C = x

Solution:

In Right Angle Triangle ABC Cosine Identity we have

\cos C = \frac{\textrm{side adjacent to angle C}}{Hypotenuse}\\

Substituting the values we get

\cos C = \dfrac{CB}{AC}=\dfrac{5}{12}

\angle C = \cos^{-1}(0.4166)=65.37=65.4\°

Therefore 'x' is equal to 65.4°
