If you're multiplying by 10, you're moving the decimal point to the right, the same with any multiplication in the 10's, so 100, 1,000, etc. This is because you are making the number 10 times larger, so if you had 3.4, the 4 is in the 1/10 column so multiplying by 10 would put it in the units column, making the number 34.
On the other hand, dividing by the 10's makes the decimal point move to the left because you are making the number 10 times smaller, so if the units column is worth 1, then 10 times less than that is 1/10, which is the first decimal place.
I hope this helps! I tried to explain it well but let me know if you still don't understand or if I've confused you in any way :)
First, you need to write to expressions to model each situation:
Plan A: 10+0.15x
Plan B: 30+0.1x
Next, set the expressions equal to each other and solve for x:
10+0.15x=30+0.1x
<em>*Subtract 0.1x from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>
10+0.05x=30
<em>*Subtract 10 from both sides*</em>
0.05x=20
<em>*Divide both sides by 0.05*</em>
x=400
The plans would have the same cost after 400 minutes of calls.
To find how much money the plans cost at 400 minutes, plug 400 into either expression. We'll use Plan A:
10+0.15(400)
10+60
70
The plans will cost $70.
Hope this helps!
The correct answer is A
70/75 × 100 = 93.33333%
100% – 93.33333% = 6.66667% (to 1dp it's 6.7%)
Answer:
x = √12
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy:
3x^2 = 36
Cancel out the 3 so it is only x^2; you can do this by dividing each side by 3 which gives you:
x^2 = 12
Square root the entire thing to get rid of the square and you get the answer
x = √12
