wants to buy a video game that cost $299 and his parents will pay 40% what will be the part he has to pay

viktelen [127]

He will pay $179.4.

40% of 299 = 119.6

299-199.6 = 179.4

To check your answer (or another way to do it is) take 60% of 299 = 179.4

Consider the standard form equation 2x-Ry=30. What value of R causes the graph to have a y-intercept of 5?

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

R = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the line is 2x - Ry = 30

We know that the equation of a line with a as x-intercept and b as y-intercept is $\frac{x}{a} +\frac{y}{b} =1$

Now convert the above given line to the standard form

Divide the line by 30 we get

$\frac{2x}{30}-\frac{Ry}{30} =\frac{30}{30}$

$\frac{x}{15} -\frac{y}{\frac{30}{R} } =1$

Here the y-intercept is 30/R

Given y-intercept = 5

$\frac{30}{R} =5$

R = 6

Esma has a box that is 20 cm wide 10 cm high, and 10 cm deep she wants to fill the box with packages that are 5 cm wide 2 cm hig

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Esma can fit 3 packages in the box because 20+10+10=30 and 5+2+2=9 so if you add up 9 three times you get 27 and that is the closest number you can get before going over.

a pipeline is laid at a rate of 1/8 mile per day.How many miles of line would be completed in 29 1/2 days

Setler [38]

Answer:

In 29 1/2 days, the total pipe laid is $(\frac{59}{16})$ mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of pipe laid in 1 day = 1/8 mile

So, the length of pipe laid in half day = half of (1/8 mile)

= $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{1}{16} \textrm{mile}$

Now, 29 1/2 days on simplification means 29 and half day.

So, length of pipe in 29 days = $29 \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{29}{8}$ mile

Now adding the length laid in half day = $\frac{29}{8} + \frac{1}{16} = \frac{29 (2) + 1}{16} = \frac{59}{16} \textrm{mile}$

So, in 29 1/2 days, the total pipe laid is $(\frac{59}{16})$ mile.
