Answer:

A. 37.5% less than B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation to model this:

B being 60% more than A means that:

B=0.6A+1A

B=1.6A

Let's isolate A.

A=B/1.6

Multiply the top and bottom by 10 to get whole numbers

A=10B/16

Simplify

A=5B/8

5/8 = 62.5%

A=0.625B

Therefore, A is 62.5% of B

This means that A is 37.5% less than B.

Answer:

<u>37.5% less than B</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that B is 60% more than A.

  • A (160%) = B
  • A = B / (160%)
  • A = B / (8/5)
  • A = 5B/8
  • A = 0.625B
  • A = (62.5%) B

Since A is 62.5% of B, it is <u>37.5% less than B</u>.

What is the length of the major axis of the conic section shown below?
sveticcg [70]

\dfrac{(x-2)^2}{49}+\dfrac{(y+5)^2}{36}=1

The equation of a elipse:

\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1

The length of the major axis is equal 2a if a > b or 2b if b > a.

We have

a^2=49\to a=\sqrt{49}=7\\\\b^2=36\to b=\sqrt{36}=6\\\\a > b

therefore the length of the major axis is equal 2 · 7 = 14.

Lexi needs 144 beads.A large box holds 100 beads.A medium box holds 10 beads.a small box holds 1 bead.lexi already had 1 large b
saveliy_v [14]

The total number of beads that Lexi could accommodate based on the on hand items is 101 beads. Subtract the number of beads she needs which is 144 beads with 101 beads. The amount of beads that would need a box is 43 beads. Since a medium box could only accommodate 10 beads at a time, divide 43 with 10 and the answer would be 4 remainder 3. Thus Lexi would only need 4 medium boxes.

Someone please answer and explain this!!! They are asking which is the graph of function f, and if it’s not one of the graphs th
Dvinal [7]
Check the picture below.

the piecewise function, has two subfunctions or behaviours, one if x < 1, meaning less, not equals, but less than 1, so it doesn't include one, so it has a "hole" on that endpoint.

and the second behaviour of the piecewise is if x ⩾ 1, larger or equals than 1, so it includes 1, so it has a solid ball on that endpoint.

(Urgent) Solve: <br> z/4 + 5 ≥ 5.5
Olin [163]

z/4 + 5 >= 5.5

     -5       -5      subtract 5 from both sides

z/4       >= 0.5  

x4              x4    times both sides by 4

z          >= 2.0
