If you were baking and you had to divide a 1/2 tablespoon in half you would need to know how to multiply fractions.Dividing is the opposite of multiplying so multiplying fractions is just the opposite of dividing fractions.

It's important cause when you understand how to multiply fraction,dividing fractions would be much more easier. Because dividing fraction is basically multiplying fraction (just flipping the second fraction upside down and then do the multiplication).

(Geometry Question) A sledding run is 300 yards long with a vertical drop of 27.6 yards. Find the angle of depression of the run
atroni [7]

Answer:

5.28°

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw the triangle formed by the sledding run.  The hypotenuse is 300.  The height is 27.6.  The angle of depression is opposite of the height.

Using sine:

sin θ = 27.6 / 300

sin θ = 0.092

θ = 5.28°

The image shows a ray of light bending at the boundary of a glass block. According to a law of optics, = n, where n is a constan
UkoKoshka [18]
The formula for the light bend would be n1*sin i= n2 * sin r

If you use "sin (90-x)= cos x" principle, you can change the sin in the equation into
n1*sin i= n2 * sin r
n1 * cos a= n2 * cos b
n2/n1= cos a/ cos b

Assuming the n constant is the ratio of the glass compared to water then the answer would be: cos a/ cos b

What can you say about the end behavior of the function f(x)=log10(5x-1)
natima [27]
The given function is
f(x) = log₁₀(5x-1)

As x -> -∞, the argument of the log function becomes a large negative number.
Because the log of a negative number is undefined, f(x) is undefined as x -> -∞.

As x -> +∞, the argument of the log function becomes a large positive number.
Therefore f(x) -> +∞ as x -> +∞.

Answer:
As x -> -∞, f(x) is undefined.
As x-> +∞, f(x) -> +∞.

Find the center of the circle: x2 + 2x - 3 + y2 = 5.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

\boxed{(-1, 0)}

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 2x - 3 + y²  = 5

Strategy:

Convert the equation to the centre-radius form:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

The centre of the circle is at (h, k) and the radius is r .

Solution:

Move the number to the right-hand side.

x² + 2x + y²  = 8

Complete the square for x

(Take half the coefficient of x, square it, and add to each side of the equation)

(x² + 2x + 1) + y² = 9

Complete the square for y

The coefficient of y is zero.

(x² + 2x + 1) + y² = 9

Express the result as the sum of squares

(x + 1)² + y² = 3²

h = -1; k = 0; r = 3

The centre of the circle is at \boxed{(-1,0)}

The graph of the circle below has its centre at (-1,0) and radius 3.

A square rotated about its center by 360º maps onto itself at(1,2,3,4) different angles of rotation. You can reflect a square on
Sladkaya [172]

A square rotated about its center by 360º maps onto itself at 90°, 180°, 270° and 360° - 4 different angles of rotation.

You can reflect a square onto itself across two diagonals and two segments that connects the middlepoints of opposite sides - 4 different lines of reflection.
