Express the ratio 25 to 5cm in its lowest terms

Answer:

5:1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at the ratio in fraction form, since ratios are easier to think about in this mathematical way:

$25:5=\frac{25}{5}$

Now we have a fraction which is easier to work with. We can look for a common factor of 25 and 5 and then factor it out to find the lowest terms of our ratio and the simplified version of the fraction. One common factor of 25 and 5 that I can think of is 5 itself. So, let's divide both sides by 5.

$\frac{25}{5}$ ÷ $5\\$ = $\frac{5}{1}$

Does that make sense? 25 divided by 5 is 5, and 5 divided by 5 is 1. So the simplified version of the fraction is $\frac{5}{1}$ , and the lowest terms of the ratio 25:5 cm is 5:1 cm.

Hopefully that makes sense! If you need more help or any of that was confusing or difficult to understand, let me know. :)

Answer:

5:1

Step-by-step explanation:

25/5=1/n

cross multiply

5×1=25×n

5=25n

divide both sides by the cofficient of n

therefore, 25/5 which is equal to 5:1

HELP! will give brainlest or whatever its called... Triangle ABC has vertices A(–2, 3), B(0, 3), and C(–1, –1). Find the coordin

Tomtit [17]

Answers:

A ' = (-2, -3)

B ' = (0, -3)

C ' = (-1, 1)

=======================================================

Explanation:

To apply an x axis reflection, we simply change the sign of the y coordinate from positive to negative, or vice versa. The x coordinate stays as is.

Algebraically, the reflection rule used can be written as $(x,y) \to (x,-y)$

Applying this rule to the three given points will mean....

Point A = (-2, 3) becomes A ' = (-2, -3)
Point B = (0, 3) becomes B ' = (0, -3)
Point C = (-1, -1) becomes C ' = (-1, 1)

The diagram is provided below.

Side note: Any points on the x axis will stay where they are. That isn't the case here, but its for any future problem where it may come up. This only applies to x axis reflections.

Sally has a part time job mowing lawns so she can save money for a new car. She charges $5 per hour. What numbers make sense for

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Independent: Amount of hours she works

Dependent: Amount of money she makes

Step-by-step explanation:

The independent variable is the part of the equation that changes. In this case the only thing that changes is how long she works, the amount of money she charges and what she is doing does not change.

The dependent variable is what you measure in the equation. In this case, the amount of money she makes depends on the amount of time she works.

Compute the greatest root of x^4-x^3-19x^2+4x+60=0. Express your answer in simplified radical form.

erik [133]

Answer:

your answer can be either

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 5

x = 3

x= 0.0000 - 2.0000 i

x= 0.0000 + 2.0000 i

Step by step solution :

Step 1 :

Equation at the end of step 1 :

((((x4)-(8•(x3)))+19x2)-32x)+60 = 0

Step 2 :

Equation at the end of step 2 :

((((x4) - 23x3) + 19x2) - 32x) + 60 = 0

Step 3 :

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

3.1 Find roots (zeroes) of : F(x) = x4-8x3+19x2-32x+60

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of x for which F(x)=0

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers x which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number P/Q then P is a factor of the Trailing Constant and Q is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is 1 and the Trailing Constant is 60.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient : 1

of the Trailing Constant : 1 ,2 ,3 ,4 ,5 ,6 ,10 ,12 ,15 ,20 , etc

1.) Is y= cosx/x an even, odd , or neither <br><br> 2.) Is y=sinx/x and even, odd , or neither

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) y = (cos x) / x is neither, since cos x is even and x is odd. Expressions such as this are neither even nor odd. /

2) y = (sin x) / x is even, since sin x and x would either both be positive at the same time or negative at the same time. Recall that (-) / (-) is positive, just as (+) / (+) is positive.
