The answer to your question is 0.55555555555

Solution: You simply divide 5 by 9 to get your whole number. In other words, 5/9 =0.55555555555

Hope this Helps!!!

Please Mark as Brainliest!!!

Final answer:

The fraction 5/9 cannot be converted into a whole number because it results in a decimal number (approximately 0.55) upon division.

Explanation:

In Mathematics, we have different types of numbers - whole numbers, fractions, decimals, etc. Here, you are asked to convert a fraction 5/9 into a whole number. However, it's essential to understand, that 5/9 cannot be converted into a whole number because it is less than 1.

For general understanding, a whole number can only be a non-negative number without any fractional or decimal parts, such as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and so forth. A fraction like 5/9 implies division, and when you divide 5 by 9, you get a decimal number (approximately 0.55), which is not a whole number.

Thus, the fraction 5/9 cannot be precisely converted into a whole number without rounding it off.

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate (f ○ g)(x)

Substitute x = g(x) into f(x)

f(x² + 14) = x² + 14 - 14 = x² → C

The value of (fog)(x) = x^2. So, option C is correct.

How to solve a composite function?

The functions f(x) and g(x) are composite functions then,

(fog)(x) = f(g(x)).

Substitute g(x) in place of x in the function f(x).Simplify the equation.

Calculation:

Given that,

f(x) = x - 14

g(x) = [tex]x^2+14[/tex]

Then,

(fog)(x) = f(g(x))

           = ([tex]x^2+14[/tex]) - 14

           = x² + 14 - 14

           = x²

A trapezoid with legs of the same length.

Answer:

Trapezoid:

A trapezoid is defined as a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides, when the trapezoid as equal legs, it's called an isosceles trapezoid.

Bases of a trapezoid:

The bases of a trapezoid are the pair of parallel sides, both of them are called base, the longer one is the major base, and the shorter one is the minor base.

Legs of a trapezoid:

The legs of a trapezoid are the nonparallel sides, because if they were parallel, that wouldn't be a trapezoid, it would be another quadrilateral.

Median of a trapezoid:

The median of a trapezoid is a segment that connects the midpoints of the legs. Remember that medians are always line that intercept midpoints.

Isosceles trapezoid:

As we said before, an isosceles trapezoid are those which have legs with equal legs. The name isosceles refers to equality.

Therefore, the right matches are

1. Trapezoid: A quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides.  

2. Bases of a trapezoid: The parallel sides.

3. Legs of a trapezoid: The nonparallel sides.  

4. Median of a trapezoid: The segment connecting the midpoints of the legs.

 = 96 cm²

26) To find the area of kite

Area of kite = pq/2

Where p and q are the two diagonals

Here p = 10.2 ft and q = 8 ft

Area = pq/2

Answers

there were D. 1163 books left on the shelves or in circulation.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

let us count the number of books that are NOT on the shelves now.

1st step: 32 + 24 = 56

2nd step: the total number of books minus the amount of books that are damaged or out:  1,219 - 56 = 1163

Answer:

C. 1,163

Step-by-step explanation:

Total books = books on shelves + books lost + books out for repair

What do we know

1219 =  books on shelves + 32 + 24

1219 = books on selves + 56

Subtract 56 from each side

1219-56 = books on shelves - 56

1163 = books on shelves

[tex]36 {m}^{3} = {2}^{2} \times {3}^{2} {m}^{3} [/tex]

[tex]12 = {2}^{2} \times 3[/tex]

The greatest common factor is the product of all the least powers of the common factors.

We can see that:

[tex] {2}^{2} [/tex]

is the common to all the factors.

Therefore the greatest common factor is

[tex] {2}^{2} = 4[/tex]

Answer: [tex]GCF=4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 8m, 36m³, and 12, you need to descompose them into their prime factors. Then:

[tex]8m=2*2*2*m=2^3*m\\\\36m^3=2*2*3*3*m^3=2^2*3^2*m^3\\\\12=2*2*3=2^2*3[/tex]

You can observe that the common factor with the lowest exponent is the following:

[tex]2^2[/tex]

Therefore,  the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 8m, 36m³, and 12 is:

[tex]GCF=2^2\\GCF=4[/tex]



Suppose the first equation in a system of two linear equations is 12x + 7y = 25. The second equation being which of these will cause the system to have no solution?


A.
12x + 7y = 20
B.
12x + 7y = 25
C.
12x + 9y = 20
D.
12x + 9y = 25

Answers

Answer:

A. 12x + 7y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Obviously, 12x + 7y cannot both be equivalent to unique [different] quantities.

Option A (12x + 7y = 20) would make the system of linear equations with 12x + 7y = 25 have no solution because the lines would be parallel and never intersect.

Second equation would make a system of linear equations with 12x + 7y = 25 have no solution. A system of linear equations will have no solution if the two lines represented by the equations are parallel, which means they have the same slope but different y-intercepts. Since the first equation is 12x + 7y = 25, we need a second equation with the same coefficients for x and y but a different constant term in order to represent parallel lines.

Option A (12x + 7y = 20) meets the criteria for causing the system to have no solution because it has the same coefficients for x and y as the first equation but a different constant term. This indicates that the lines are parallel and will never intersect, hence no solution exists for this pair of equations.

compare that given eqn with y-y1=m(x-x1),

m1=2

then,

perpendicular case,

m1×m2=-1

m2=-1/2

then putting value,

y+5=-1/2(x+3)

Answer:

y + 5 = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line.

y - 4 = 2(x - 6) is in this form with slope m = 2

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Hence the equation passing through (- 3, - 5) is

y - (- 5) = - [tex]\frac{1}2}[/tex] (x - (- 3)), that is

y + 5 = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](x + 3) ← equation of perpendicular line

Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (-2, 5) and (4, -9).Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (-2, 5) and (4, -9).

Answers

Final answer:

The midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (-2, 5) and (4, -9) is found using the midpoint formula and is (1, -2).

Explanation:

To find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (-2, 5) and (4, -9), you use the midpoint formula, which is derived from finding the average of the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of the endpoints respectively.

The midpoint formula is:

( (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2 )

Plugging in our given endpoints (-2, 5) and (4, -9) into the formula, it becomes:

( (-2 + 4) / 2, (5 + (-9)) / 2 )

This simplifies to:

( 2 / 2, -4 / 2 )

And finally:

( 1, -2 )

Therefore, the midpoint of the line segment is at coordinates (1, -2).

12.5 < x < 18.9
x < 6, x > 26
6 < x < 26

Answers

Answer:

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of 2 sides of triangle are given i.e 10 cm and 16 cm.

We need to find the range of the values of length of the third side.

Sum of 2 sides of triangle is greater than the 3rd side

so, 10+16 = 26

So, the length of third side should be less than 26

and we know that the length of third side should be greater than the absolute difference of other two sides

16-10 = 6

So, the length of third side should be greater than 6

Combining both we get 6<x<26

Hence Option D is correct.

The range of possible values for the third side of the triangle is 6 < x < 26

How to find third side of the triangleSide 1 = 10 cmSide 2 = 16 cmSide 3 = x cm

Sum of two sides is greater than third side

10 + 16 = 26 cm

Length of third side is greater than difference between the two sides

Difference = 16 cm - 10cm

= 6 cm

Therefore, the range of value of the third side is x is greater than 6cm less than 26cm

6 < x < 26

practice time evenly between the last two days of the week. Write an inequality to determine the minimum number of hours she needs to practice on each of
the two days

Answers

Final answer:

Maggie needs to practice at least 1.5 hours on each of the two remaining days.

Explanation:

To determine the minimum number of hours Maggie needs to practice on each of the two remaining days, we can set up an inequality based on the given information. Maggie needs to spend at least six hours each week practicing the piano, and she has already practiced three hours. Let's let x represent the number of hours she needs to practice on each of the remaining two days. The inequality can be written as:

3 + 2x ≥ 6

Solving for x, we subtract 3 from both sides of the inequality:

2x ≥ 3

Then, we divide both sides by 2 to solve for x:

x ≥ 1.5

Therefore, Maggie needs to practice at least 1.5 hours on each of the two remaining days.

Maggie must practice for at least [tex]$\dfrac{3}{2}$[/tex] hours each of the last two days.

Let x equal the number of hours Maggie practices each of the last two days. Since she Needs to practice at least 6 hours per week, and she already practiced 3 hours this week, she must practice for at least 6 - 3 = 3 more hours.

Splitting this time evenly between the two days means she practices x hours each day.

This can be expressed in the following inequality: [tex]$x + x \geq 3$[/tex] which combines the information about the minimum number of hours needed and the fact that she splits the remaining time evenly.

Simplifying the left side of the inequality gives [tex]$2x \geq 3$[/tex]. Dividing both sides by 2 gives [tex]$x \geq \dfrac{3}{2}$[/tex].

Thus, Maggie must practice for at least [tex]$\dfrac{3}{2}$[/tex] hours each of the last two days.
