If n is 2, you substitute 2 for n and multiply 5(2)+8= 10 +8 = 18
To find a percentage of a number, you divide by that number.
So to find what percent of 150 162 is, you divide 162 by 150
162 ÷ 150 = 1.08
Now, to find the percentage, we take the decimal and move the point two places to the right.
1.08 = 108%
162 is 108% of 150.
Answer:
4.5 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Selma uses a jogging trail that runs through a park near her home. The trail is a loop that is 3/4 of a mile long. On Monday, Selma ran the loop in 1/6 of an hour. What is Selma's unit rate in miles per hour for Monday's run?
Distance = 3/4 of a mile
Time taken on Monday = 1/6 of an hour.
What is Selma's unit rate in miles per hour for Monday's run?
Unit rate in miles per hour for Monday's run = distance ÷ time taken
= 3/4 ÷ 1/6
= 3/4 × 6/1
= (3 * 6) / (4 * 1)
= 18/4
= 4.5 miles per hour
Unit rate in miles per hour for Monday's run = 4.5 miles per hour
Answer:
36 laps Ronnie swim during practice .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the laps that Ronnie swims be x .
Let us assume that the laps that Jackie swims be y .
As given
For every 3 laps that Jackie swims, Ronnie swims 4 laps.
i.e
3 × laps that Ronnie swims = 4 × laps that Jackie swims
3 × x = 4 × y
3x = 4y
Equation becomes
x + y = 63
Thus by using 3x = 4y .
Thus
4x + 3x = 63 × 4
7x = 252
x = 36
Put the value of x in the equation x + y = 63
36 + y = 63
y = 63 - 36
y = 27
Therefore the 36 laps Ronnie swim during practice .
Example 2x + y =3
-2x -2x
——————————————
Y = 3 - 2x or y = -2x - 3
