<h3>Hey Buddy,</h3>

<h3>Answer :-</h3>

Answer is 72 .

<h3><u>Explanation :-</u></h3>

\frac{6}{5}  \: of \: what \: number \: is \: 60 \:

You probably , Know that the number above the fraction line is called the numerator and the number below it is called the denominator. To work out the fraction of any number, we first need to convert that whole number into a fraction as well .

• Any number can be converted to fraction if you use 1 as the denominator:

\frac{60}{1}

• So now that we've converted 60 into a fraction, to work out the answer, we put the fraction 6/5 side by side with our new fraction, 60/1 so that we can multiply those two fractions.

• convert the whole number to a fraction and then multiply the numerators and denominators.

\frac{6 \times 60}{5 \times 1}  =  \frac{360}{5}

• Our new fraction can actually be simplified down further. To do that, we need to find the greatest common factor of both numbers.

• You can use our handy GCF calculator to work this out yourself if you want to. We already did that , And the GCF of 360 and 5 is 5.

• We can now divide both the new numerator and the denominator by 5 to simplify this fraction down to its lowest terms.

\frac{360}{5}  = 72

\frac{5}{5}  = 1

• When we put that together, we can see that our complete answer is :-

\frac{72}{1}

<h3> Hence ,the complete and simplified answer to the question what is 6/5 of 60 is :- 72 .</h3>

<h3>Hope this helps you...!</h3>

<h3>I hope you can understand !! </h3>

Question 4 of 10
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option C. 3√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached photo for brief explanation.

In the attached photo, we obtained the following:

Opposite = a

Adjacent = 3

Hypothenus = 6

Angle θ = 60°

We can obtain the value of 'a' as follow:

Tan θ = Opposite /Adjacent

Tan 60° = a/3

Cross multiply

a = 3 x Tan 60°

But: Tan 60° = √3

a = 3 x Tan 60°

a = 3 x √3

a = 3√3

Therefore, the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 3√3.

Geometry math question no Guessing and Please show work thank you
4vir4ik [10]

here 8x and (2x+60) are corresponding angles

since line l1 and l2 are parallel, so the two angles will be equal

8x=2x+60

8x-2x=60

6x=60

dividing by 6

x=10

Jackie deposited $315 into a bank account that earned 1.5% simple interest each year.
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

copied from InesWalston expert

Money in the bank account after 3 years will be  $329.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackie deposited $315 into a bank account that earned 1.5% simple interest each year for 3 year, while no money was deposited into or withdrawn from the account.

We know that,

i = p.r.t / 100

Where,

i = interest

P = Principal = $315

r = Rate of interest = 1.5% annual

t = time period = 3 years

Putting the values,

i = 315 × 1.5 × 3 / 100 = $14.18

Total money in bank account = Principal + interest = 315 + 14.18 = $329.18

A certain pet store has only cats and dogs. the ratio of the number of cats to the number of dogs in the pet store is 2:3. 1/4 o
svp [43]
The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables.
 We have then:
 x: number of cats
 y: number of dogs
 We write the system of equations:
 x / y = 2/3
 (1/4) x + (1/2) y = 48
 Solving the system we have:
 x = 48
 y = 72
 The total number of animals is:
 x + y = 48 + 72 = 120
 Answer:
 
The total number of animals in the pet store is:
 
120
