Answer: Sometimes

Explanation:

Quotient greater than 1:

3/4 divide by 2/3
= 3/4 x 3/2 = 9/8 > 1

4/5 divide by 2/5
= 4/5 x 5/2 = 2 > 1

Quotient less than 1

1/100 divide by 2/10
= 1/100 x 10/2 = 1/20 < 1

1/50 divide by 1/25
= 1/50 x 25/1 = 1/2 < 1

4x2 +9y2 = 72

Kamila [148]

Answer:

<h2> $\bold{\left(\dfrac{3}{13}\ ,\ \dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{13}\right)\qquad\vee\qquad \left(\dfrac{3}{13}\ ,\ -\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{13}\right)}$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y² = -1 ⇒ - y² = - x - 1 ⇒ y² = x + 1 {x≥-1}

4x² + 9y² = 72

4x² + 9(x + 1)² = 72

4x² + 9(x² + 2x + 1) = 72

4x² + 9x² + 18x + 9 - 72 = 0

13x² + 18x - 63 = 0 ⇒ a = 13, b = 18, c = -63

$x=\dfrac{-18\pm\sqrt{18^2-4\cdot13\cdot(-63)}}{2\cdot13}=\dfrac{-18\pm\sqrt{324+252}}{26}=\dfrac{-18\pm\sqrt{576}}{26}\\\\x=\dfrac{-18+24}{26}=\dfrac3{13}\qquad\vee\qquad x=\dfrac{-18-24}{26}=-\dfrac{21}{13}\\\\ y^2= x + 1\quad\iff\quad x\ge-1\\\\y^2=\dfrac3{13}+1\\\\ y^2=\dfrac{16}{13}\\\\y=\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{13}}=\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{13}\qquad\vee\qquad y=-\dfrac{4\sqrt{13}}{13}$

r-ruslan [8.4K]

8 is 10% of 80

Convert the percentage into a decimal:
$\frac{10}{100} = 0.1$

Multiply the decimal by 80:
$0.1 \times 80 = 8$

Answer:

ST is equal to TS because they are both the same line, just vertically flipped over the y-axis. Triangle RST is equivalent to Triangle UTS because they have the same area. (Rectangle cut into two equal-sized triangles)
