Answers

Answer:

20%.

1.2/1.5 = 0.8

0.8*100 = 80%

100%-80% = 20%.

We can verify this:

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 84. What is the largest of these numbers? (5 points) a 28 b 26 c 29 d 27

Answers

Answer:

The answer is c.29

Step-by-step explanation:

I used Google xD

Answer:

Largest number = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive numbers by (x + 1) ; (x + 2) and (x +3)

x +1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 84         {Combine like terms}

x + x +x + 1  + 2 + 3 = 84

               3x + 6 = 84

                    3x = 84 - 6

                     3x = 78

                        x = 78/3

x = 26

Largest number = x + 3 = 26 + 3

                           =29

B) W=7
C) w=12.2
D) w=5.8

Answers

Answer:

A) 10.6

Step-by-step explanation:

5w - 9 = 44

Add 9 to both sides.

5w = 53

Divide by 5.

w = 10.6

5w-9=44
5w=53

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step: Solvex+3y=16for x:

x+3y+−3y=16+−3y(Add -3y to both sides)

x=−3y+16

Step: Substitute−3y+16forxin2x+5y=14:

2x+5y=14

2(−3y+16)+5y=14

−y+32=14(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−y+32+−32=14+−32(Add -32 to both sides)

−y=−18 Divide both sides by -1

[tex]\frac{-y}{-1} =\frac{-18}{-1}[/tex]

y=18

Answers

Answer:There are 2 ways to solve this system: by substitution or by graphing. I will solve this system using both.

Substitution Method

For x:

[tex]y = \frac{5}{4}x - 2\\y = -\frac{1}{4}x + 19\\\\\frac{5}{4}x - 2 = -\frac{1}{4}x + 19\\\\\frac{3}{2}x - 2 = 19\\\\\frac{3}{2}x = 21\\\\x = 14[/tex]

For y:

[tex]y = \frac{5}{4}(14) - 2\\\\y = 17.5 - 2\\\\y = 15.5[/tex]

Solution:

[tex](14, 15.5)[/tex]

Graphing Method

According to this graph, the solution will be [tex](14, 15.5)[/tex].

Write a linear equation in slope intercept form of a line with a slope of 12 and the point (0, 10).

y = 12x - 10

y = 12x + 10

y = 10x + 12

x = 10y - 12​

Answers

its y=mx+b so you will get b as the answer
It’s B, I used to do linear equations a lot in middle school and in 9th grade. Always remember (x,y), this will help you a lot. The point was (0,10) so ten is the y-intercept because it’s in the place of y so that means that’s where you’ll be starting at so you will add but if it’s negative you will subtract.

ASAP solve 21x+6=300 30 points

Answers

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. In the example above, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12. If we know the value of our variables, we can replace the variables with their values and then evaluate the expression. 21x+6=300 X=14, 21x14=294+6=300.

hbu think i can get it done today tho i

what is the area of the figure below
A: 88in2
B: 48 in2
C: 68 in2
B:43in2

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is C, 68in².

Answer:

68

Step-by-step explanation:

The are of the  square is 3*3 = 9

Since we have two squares we need to mulitply by 2

9*2 = 18 is the total area of the squares

if you draw a line from the one square to the other you make a rectangle in the middle

the are of the rectangle is 10*3 which is 30

Two triangle has appared as we draw the line from one square to the other square.

The height of the traingle is (7 - 3)/2 which is 2

(2*10) / 2 =  which is 10

Since we have 2 triangle we get result as 2*10 = 20

20+30+18 = 68

Which set of values could be the side length of a 30-60-90 Triangle!

Answers

Your answer is A.

When you have a 30-60-90 triangle, your sides will always have a set pattern.

The side across from the 30 angle will be equal to n (in this case n = 4).

The side across from the 60 angle will always be equal to n√(3) (in this case, 4√(3)).

The side across from the 90 angle will always be 2n (in this case, 8).

You could go into trig or pythagorean theorem to prove this, but it's much simpler to remember it because it's a special triangle.

Answers

Answer:

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line

shown in the graph is = 4

Hence, option 'd' is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the line equation, let us take two points

(0, 2)(4, 1)

Finding the slope between two points

[tex]\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(4,\:1\right)[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{1-2}{4-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

As we know that the slope of the perpendicular line is basically the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line, so

The slope of the perpendicular line will be:

[tex]-\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{4}}=4[/tex]

Thus, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line

shown in the graph is = 4

Hence, option 'd' is true.
