5. Suppose that Mike and Dave are making measurements for the road-paving crew.
They need to know how much the land slopes downward along a particular stretch
of road. Dave walks 80 feet from Mike and holds up a long pole, perpendicular to
the ground, that has markings every inch along it. Mike looks at the pole through a
sighting instrument. Looking straight across, parallel to the horizon, Mike sights a
point on the pole 50 inches above the ground-call it point A. Then Mike looks
through the instrument at the bottom of the pole, creating an angle of depression.
Which is the angle of depression or slope of the road, to where Mike is standing?

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.  

the correct answer is a.) bc< mn 5 stars if this you : )
