ANSWER

80%

EXPLANATION

Donovan got 20 questions correct and 5 questions incorrect.

This means that the total number of questions he attempted in the test is the sum of correct and incorrect questions:

Total = 20 + 5

Total = 25

To find the percentage of correct answers, we have to divide the number of correct answers by the total number of questions attempted and multiply by 100 (per cent).

That is:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{20}{25}\cdot\text{ 100 = }\frac{4}{5}\cdot\text{ 100} \\ =\text{ 80\%} \end{gathered}$

That is the percentage of correct answers.

At which of the given values is the graph discontinuous?

hammer [34]

Answer: Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve the problem shown above keeping on mind the facts shown below:

Observe that there is a point in the graph in which there is a jump or a discontinuity between both parts of the function.

The point mentioned is at x=5

By definition, this indicates that the function shown is not continuous at that point.

Therefore, you can conclude that the value in which the graph is discontinuous is the value of the option d: 5

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{1}{x-1}>4$

Multiply x-1 on both sides

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{1}{x-1}\times (x-1)> 4(x-1)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1>4(x-1)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1> 4x-4$

Add 4 on both sides

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 1+4> 4x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 5> 4x$

Divide both sides by 4

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{5}{4}>x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x< \dfrac{5}{4}$

Now

ATQ to the equation $\bf \dfrac{1}{x-1}$ x should be greater than 1 .Because if it becomes 1 then the denominator will be 0 which is impossible.

Hence x>1

Thus

$\\ \sf{:}\!\implies 1$

Now

$\\ \therefore\boxed{\bf x\epsilon \left(1,\dfrac{5}{4}\right)}$

Un rollo de cable mide más de 150 metros y menos de 200 metros. ¿Cuál es su longitud exacta, sabiendo que se puede dividir en tr

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

<h2>The cable measures 180 meters.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find the Least Common Factor between 15 and 9.

15 9 | 3

5 3 | 3

5 1 | 5

So, the Least Common Factor would be 3x3x5 = 45. But, we need a multiple of this number which must be between 150 and 200. So,

45 x 4 = 180.

Therefore, the cable measures 180 meters.
