Answer: F / 0.15 = 100F / 15 = 20F / 3 ≈ 6.67F.
Explanation:
1) The three expresssions, F / 0.15; 15 F / 100; 3F / 20; are equivalent.
2) The number of figurines Kat owned last year may be expressed in terms of the number the of figurines purchased, F, this year, and the 15%, following this procedure:
- Call n the amount of figurines owned last year.
- F is the number of figurines purchased: F = 15%n = 0,15n
- Hence, you just need to clear F from the expression F = 0.15n
- Divide both sides by 0.15:
F / 0.15 = n or n = F / 0.15 (reflexive property)
- To prove the equialavence of the other expresssions you just have to use the properties of multiplication or division:
(F / 0.15) × (100 / 100) = 100F / 15
100F / 15 = (100/5)F / (15/5) = 20F / 3 ≈ 6.67F
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
8640/60 is 144. 144 is a perfect square. 12*12 is 144
Answer:
Length = 2x + 5
Width = x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle = length × width
Expression for area of the rectangle = 2x² + 11x + 15
Factorising the quadratic expression
2x² + 11x + 15 = 2x² + 6x + 5x + 15 = (2x² + 6x) + (5x + 15) = 2x(x + 3) +5(x + 3) = (2x + 5)(x + 3)
Length = 2x + 5
Width = x + 3
Answer:
7/16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the fraction be x/y
(x+5)/(y+5) = 4/7
7x + 35 = 4y + 20
7x + 15 = 4y
(x-1)/(y-1) = 2/5
5x - 5 = 2y - 2
2y = 5x - 3
7x + 15 = 2(5x - 3)
7x + 15 = 10x - 6
3x = 21
x = 7
2y = 5(7) - 3
2y = 32
y = 16
x/y = 7/16
