Answer:

Judy's claim to divide 2.4 by 2 is the same as multiplying 2.4 * 0.5 is:

  • <u>Correct</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying a number by 0.5 (whose fractional is 1/2) is the same as dividing this number by 2, this case is very easy to identify by making different examples in which said decimals and integers are used, checking that the result is the same:

EXAMPLES.

1. 12*0.5 = 6

   12/2 = 6

2. 3*0.5 = 1.5

   3/2 = 1.5

3. 5.5*0.5 = 2.75

   5.5/2 = 2.75

As you can see in the previous examples, performing the operation by both methods is correct.

earnstyle [38]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct option is </u><u>The letter on the front will be N. The letter on the back will be L. </u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

When we fold the given net, we will get Q,P,M and N on sides. Side M will come to the top, side Q on the right side, side P on the left and side O on the bottom. The side which comes to the front will  be N of the observer and similarly the side L will come to the back of the rectangular prism.

What is the perimeter of a triangle with vertices located at (-1, 4), (2, 7), and (1, 5), rounded to the nearest hundredth? A. 7
Pavel [41]
We are given with the points (-1,4), (2,7) and (1,5) as the sides of the triangle. The area of the triangle can be determined by determining first the length of the sides. Via distance formula, the sides are 3 sqrt 2, sqrt 5 and sqrt 5. The perimeter thus is equal to 8.71 units
