It took Jaytree 42 seconds to rip about half a DVD. About what is Jaytree’s “ripping rate” in DVDs per minute?

1 answer:

3 0

You can solve this problem by using the following rule of three:
42 s ----> 0.5 DVD
x ----> 1 DVD
Clearing x:
x = (1 / 0.5) * (42)
x = 84 s (time to complete a DVD)
Then, we have the following conversion:
1min = 60s
So:
x = (84/60)
x = 1.4 min
The rate is then:
rate = 1 / 1.4 = 0.71 DVD / minute
Answer:
Jaytree's "ripping rate" in DVDs per minute is
0.71 DVD / minute

Kelly tells you that when variables are in the denominator, the equation one over two plus three over x equals three over four b

olasank [31]

1/2 + 3/x = 3/4
multiply everything by x
1/2x + 3 = 3/4x...subtract 1/2x from both sides
3 = 3/4x - 1/2x
3 = 3/4x - 2/4x
3 = 1/4x...multiply both sides by 4
4 * 3 = x
12 = x

Can anyone help me with this?0

Answer:

C) (y - 1)(y - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First you separate your expression into groups.

$(y^2-5y)(-1y+5)$

Now we take the common multiple out of each.

$y(y - 5)-1(y - 5)$

Since we have two (y - 5)s, we can pull it out of the equation as its own common multiple.

After we do that, we are left with y - 1. (we got this from taking the common multiples out)

Now we are just left with (y - 5)(y - 1)

Hope this helped!

Ellen Newman has an income of $18,150 and claims 5 exemptions. The amount allowed for each exemption is $1,000. Her state tax is

Vanyuwa [196]

State tax is computed by first subtracting the amount of exemptions (5*$1000=$5000) from annual income and then multiplying it by the state tax.

($18150-$5000)*5%= $657.50

we do not know how much the price of a commodity is, but it has been reduced by 10% and now costs 20€. What was the starting pri

MrRissso [65]

I got 22 because if u do 20 multiplied by 10% that gives u 2 which u then add onto the 20 to get the starting price. 10% of 22 is 2 and then 22-2 = 20 (if u we’re doing it from the starting price)
