Find the value of 5/32 divided by 25/4. show your reasoning

Mathematics
1 answer:
boyakko [2]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use reciprocals to solve this

(5/32)/(25/4) = (5/32)*(4/25) = 20/(32*25) = 20/800 = 2/80 = 1/40 = .025

rewrite

so reciprocals is a method in which division can be turned into fractions which can be turned into multiplication

heres an example

x/2=0.5x

y/4=0.25y

so 0.5x/0.25y would be the same as (x/2)/(y/4) which can be converted to a reciprocal where it would look like (x/2)*(4/y) which makes our answer 4x/2y which we can simplify to 2x/y

same concept for (5/32)/(25/4), first we can make it into a reciprocal (note, reciprocal means just flipping one of the fractions and replacing the division sign as multiplication) by writing (5/32)*(4/25)  

now we multiply numerator by numerator to get 20

and we multiply denominator by denominator to get 800

20/800 = 2/80 = 1/40

When Jill woke up, the temperature was -3 C. By noon the temperature had increased by 8 C.

-3+8.

We know that the temperature /was/ -3, so it was 3 under zero. It has /risen/ by 8, meaning we have added 8 degrees to whatever the starting temperature was.

We can find out how much the temperature is right now: it was -3, went through -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and now its at 5 degrees. Thats risen by 8 degrees, right? And -3+8 is the same as 8-3 (commutative property of addition, since we basically did 8+(-3)) which equals 5, so we know that we got the correct answer. :)

What is the solution to the equation 1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5
nalin [4]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x +2= -5/8x - 5

Add 5/8x to each side

1/4x +5/8x +2= -5/8x+5/8x - 5

1/4x+5/8x +2=  - 5

Subtract 2 from each side

1/4x+5/8x +2-2=  - 5-2

1/4x+5/8x =  - 7

Get a common denominator

1/4 *2/2 x + 5/8x = -7

2/8x + 5/8x = -7

7/8x = -7

Multiply each side by 8/7

8/7x * 7/8x = -7 *8/7

x = -8

The figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter circles, and a square. Find the area and the perimeter of each f
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Part 1) A=36(\pi-2)\ cm^2

Part 2) P=6(\pi+2\sqrt{2})\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

Part 1) Find the area

we know that

The area of the shape is equal to the area of a quarter of circle minus the area of an isosceles right triangle

so

A=\frac{1}{4}\pi r^{2}-\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)

we have that the base and the height of triangle is equal to the radius of the circle

r=12\ cm\\b=12\ cm\\h=12\ cm

substitute

A=\frac{1}{4}\pi (12)^{2}-\frac{1}{2}(12)(12)\\A=(36\pi-72)\ cm^2

simplify

Factor 36

A=36(\pi-2)\ cm^2

Part 2) Find the perimeter

The perimeter of the figure is equal to the circumference of a quarter of circle plus the hypotenuse of the right triangle

The circumference of a quarter of circle is equal to

C=\frac{1}{4}(2\pi r)=\frac{1}{2}\pi r

substitute the given values

C=\frac{1}{2}\pi (12)\\C=6\pi\ cm

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

The hypotenuse of right triangle is equal to

AC=\sqrt{12^2+12^2}\\AC=\sqrt{288}\ cm

simplify

AC=12\sqrt{2}\ cm

Find the perimeter

P=(6\pi+12\sqrt{2})\ cm

simplify

Factor 6

P=6(\pi+2\sqrt{2})\ cm
