A Write an equivalent equation that does NOT contain decimals.

Mathematics
1 answer:
vampirchik [111]3 years ago

                                                     <span>0.5x - 0.1 = -2.9

When you multiply each side of an equation by the same number,
you don't change the equation or its solution.  If you want to get rid
of the decimals, you could  multiply each side by  10.  Then the
equation is

                                                     5x - 1  =  -29

You should be able to solve that without help.
But I'm about to take your points, so here's
how to solve that equation:

                                            </span><span><span>5x - 1  =  -29

Add  1  to each side:        5x        =  -28

Divide each side by  5 :     x         =  -28 / 5

Simplify the solution:          x         =  -5 and 4/5 .

Again ... this is the same solution as the original equation
if we hadn't gotten rid of the decimals.

The graph below shows the height through which an elevator travels, y, in x seconds: A graph is shown with x axis title as Time
Blababa [14]

Answer:

C. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a graph representing the height of the elevator with respect to time.

Since, we know that,

X-axis represents the 'time' in seconds and y-axis represents the 'height of the elevator' in feet.

As, the coordinate points on the graph are given by,

(1,10), (2,20), (3,30) and (4,40).

So, the rate of change can be found out by solving, \frac{20-10}{2-1}=10.

Hence, the rate of change of the relationship is 10.

Solve the application problem. Round to the nearest percent.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent increase in the price of the insurance policy, we first need to take the total value of the original price of the insurance policy and subtract it to the new price of the insurance policy.

Price increase = New Price - Original Price

New Price = $2,200

Original Price = $2,000

Price Increase = 2,200 - 2,000

Price Increase = 200

Now to find the percentage increase, we take the price increase and divide it by the original price and multiply it by 100.

Total increase % = \dfrac{200}{2,000} *100

Total increase % = 0.1*100

Total increase % = 10%
