The number is 6.25.

We will set up an equation for this.  Let x be the unknown number.  Subtracting 1.05 from it gives us

(x-1.05)

Multiplying the difference by 0.8 would give us

0.8(x-1.05)

Adding 2.84 to the product would give us

0.8(x-1.05)+2.84

Dividing the sum by 0.01 would give us

[0.8(x-1.05)+2.84]/0.01 = 700

We will start working backward, cancelling the division by 0.01 first by multiplying:

([0.8(x-1.05)+2.84]/0.01)*0.01 = 700*0.01

0.8(x-1.05)+2.84 =7

Subtract 2.84 from both sides:
0.8(x-1.05)+2.84-2.84 = 7-2.84
0.8(x-1.05) = 4.16

Use the distributive property on the left side:
0.8*x - 0.8*1.05 = 4.16
0.8x - 0.84 = 4.16

Add 0.84 to both sides:
0.8x - 0.84+0.84 = 4.16+0.84
0.8x = 5

Divide both sides by 0.8:
0.8x/0.8 = 5/0.8
x = 6.25

Katarina [22]
She has 7 soccer trophies.

So lets assume she wants to display it in a straight line:

The 1st has 7 ways

The 2nd has  6 ways

The 3rd has  5 ways

The 4th has  4 ways

until the last.

Total = 7 × 6 ×5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 5040 ways.

Mark can clean his father's office in 30 minutes. His younger sister Lynn can clean the office in 40 minutes. How long will it t
xz_007 [3.2K]
There is a formula for this
Time = [Worker 1 * Worker 2] / [Worker 1 + Worker 2]
Time = 30*40 / (30+40)
Time = 1,200 / 70
Time = <span> <span> <span> 17.1428571429 </span> </span> </span> minutes

Alternate method
In 1 minute, Mark can clean (1/30) of a room
In 1 minute, Lynn can clean (1/40) of a room
Together, they can clean (1/30 + 1/40) = (7 / 120) of a room in 1 minute.
Together, they can clean one room in (120 / 7) minutes.
(120 / 7) =  <span> <span> <span> 17.1428571429 </span> </span> </span> minutes.

Answer:

1. d-even lc- -

2. d- odd lc- +

3. type- odd lc- +

4. type- even lc- -

5. d- even lc- - type even

6 d- odd lc- + type- even

Step-by-step explanation:

when the degree is odd, one leg goes down one goes up

when the degree is even, both legs go up or down

when the leading coefficient is negative the end behavior is -∞

when the leading coefficient is positive, the end behavior ∞

a function is odd when both legs go down

a function is even when the legs go in different directions

a function is neither when it isn't a function (think vertical line test)
