To multiply a whole number by a fraction less than one, you have to rewrite the whole number in the expression as a fraction by putting a one under it.
For example, in 10 x 2/5, you would rewrite the 10 to 10/1 x 2/5.
Then, you would multiply the top and bottom of the two fractions. In this case, it would be 10 x 2 and 1x5. This would result in 20/5.
Finally, you would simplify this fraction by dividing. The final answer is 4.

Answer:

10 × 2/5 = 20/5 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are multiplying a whole (big) number times a fraction, you multiply the whole (big) number times the TOP number (numerator) and put that on top. Keep the bottom number (denominator) the same.

10 × (2/5)

= (10×2) / 5

= 20/5

= 4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor out to simplify:

15d+105=4d-16+11d

15d+105=15d-16

subtract 15d from both sides

105=-16

this means that there are no solutions for d

What are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle in which one acute angle measures 19° and the hypotenuse is 15 units long?

pentagon [3]

The legs of a triangle with a hypotenuse that measures 15 units long have lengths that are equal to 15 times the sine or cosine of the given angle.
leg 1 = (15 units) x (cos 19) = 14.18 units
leg 2 = (15 units) x (sin 19) = 4.88 units
The lengths of the legs are 14.18 units and 4.88 units.

NEED HELP WITH THESE

faltersainse [42]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 .f(x)= $x^{2}$ -x+1

f(-1)= (-1)-(-1)+1

f(-1)= 1+1+1

= 3

3.f(x)= $x^{2}$ -x+1

f( 1)=(1)-1+1

f( 1)=1-1+1

5. f(x)= $x^{2}$ -x+1

f(3)= $(3)^{2}$ -3+1

= 9-3+1

2. g(x) = 5 - 3x

g( -8)=5-3(-8)

g( -8)=5+24

=29

4.g(x) = 5 - 3x

g(5)=5-3(5)

g(5)=5-15

=-10

6.g(x) = 5 - 3x

g(-3)=5-3(-3)

g(-3)=5+9

=14
