Answer:

16.8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Body fat percentage = 12.1%

Weight = 139 pounds

How may pounds of the person's weight is made up of fat:

That is 12.1% of the person's entire body weight

Pound of person's weight composed of fat:

12.1% of 139

(12.1 / 100) × 139

0.121 × 139

= 16.819 pounds.

= 16.8 pounds

It takes Wayne 1/10 hours to walk a 1/6 mile park loop. What is Wayne's unit rate, in miles per hour
olchik [2.2K]
To solve this problem, we should set up a proportion, letting x represent our unknown number of miles that Wayne walks in one hour.

1/6 mile / 1/10 hours = x miles / 1 hour

Now we use cross-products or the multiplication of the numerator of one fraction times the denominator of the other fraction, setting these two numbers equal.  The resulting equation is:

1/6 = 1/10x

Finally, we must divide both sides by 1/10 to cancel it out on the right side of the equation and get the variable x alone.

x = 5/3 or 1 2/3

Therefore, Wayne walks 1 2/3 miles per hour.

Which expression represents the polynomial −2x3−4x2+2x4+3x+4 rewritten in standard form?
Alja [10]

Answer:

10 x^4 - 8x^5

Explanation:

To write a polynomial in standard form, simplify and then arrange the terms in descending order. Ex. ax^2+ax+c

Then you would simplify

−2 x−5(x^2x^2)−2x4(x^2x^3)

Simplify each term

= 10 x^4 - 8x^5
