1/5 divided by -1/14?

Mathematics
1 answer:
suter [353]2 years ago

Answer:

-2.8 or -14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide one fraction by another, there is a really cool method called Keep Change Flip

Keep the first fraction

Change the division sign to multiplication

Flip the numbers on the last fraction

Let's try it out.

Keep the 1/5

Change the ÷ to a ×

Flip the -1/14 to a -14/1

1/5 × -14/1

Multiply the top numbers by each other first

1 × -14 = -14

Now the bottom numbers

5 × -1 = -5

The fraction we have now is -14/5

It can also be written as -2.8

Answer:

V=2c

Step-by-step explanation:

\\[Looking at the relationship of the numbers in the table, we can see which ones will work right off the bat.]\\[Our first numbers are both zero, so we cant do anything significant there.]\\[Next row, however, we can start doing the process of elimination.]\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2\\2&4\\3&6\\4&8\\5&10\end{array}\right]\\ \\[After plugging in the formulas to see if they're true, the only one that works every time is V=2c.]\\[That is your answer.]

Find the area of the following triangle. Show each of the math steps that you use to find the area. Then explain how to go about
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Semi perimeter:-

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail s=\dfrac{a+b+c}{2}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail s=\dfrac{1.8+2.4+3}{2}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail s=\dfrac{7.2}{2}=3.6cm

Apply heron s formula

Area:-

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \sqrt{3.6(3.6-1.8)(3.6-3)(3.6-2.4)}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \sqrt{3.6(1.8)(0.6)(1.2)}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \sqrt{4.6656}

\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 2.16cm^2

Answer in standard form PLEASE.
matrenka [14]

0.9 x 10^4

Let’s break this down into steps.

So to start off with, you need to do 4.5/5 which = 0.9.

Now we can deal with the indices. 10^-3 / 10^-7 means we have to subtract them. Therefore, -3 - -7 = 4. Altogether, we have 0.9 x 10^4

The question states we should leave our answer in standard form.

So our answer is 0.9 x 10^4.
