Complete question :
Chuck lives 4/5 of a mile from the post office. He walked 2/3 of the way from home to the post office. How far did Chuck walk? If possible, write the answer in reduced form
Answer:
8/ 15 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance from house to post office = 4/5 miles
Distance walked = 2/3 of the distance
Hence, the distance walked can be obtained thus :
2/3 of (4/5)
2/3 * 4/5
8 / 15
Hence, Chucks walked 8 /15 miles
The length of the altitude is
Explanation:
Let ABC be an equilateral triangle.
It has sides of length 16 cm
Let AD be the altitude of the triangle.
We need to determine the length of an altitude.
Let AC = 16 cm and CD = 8 cm
Let us consider the right angled triangle ADC
Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have,
Substituting the values, we get,
The length of the altitude is
√2 amount around 1.4
so the best answer is < which means 'less than'
√2 < 1.8
√2 is less than 1.8
