Steps to solve 10.3=0.6y solve the y

2 answers:

8 0

To solve for y, you must isolate the variable so that you have y set equal to your solution. To do this, divide both sides by 0.6. This would look like this:
10.3/0.6=0.6y/0.6

When 0.6 and 0.6 cancel out and you are left with y on one side and then when you divide 10.3/0.6, you result in a non-terminating decimal, which means the decimal goes on forever. To have a more accurate solution, convert 10.3/0.6 to a more simplified fraction. Since the numerator and denominator are decimals, you can multiply the numerator and denominator by 10 to move the decimal to the right one in order to make the numbers whole. This would result in 103/6. When you convert this to an improper fraction, you get the fraction 17 1/6.

Answer: y=17 1/6

All you need to do is divide 0.6 into both sides.

10.3/0.6= 17.166666666667 ( you could round up to 17.2)

Faction Equivalent demcimal for 2.46

Paul [167]

Here is you're answer:

In order to find the answer you have to switch all the options into decimals to see which one is equivalent to 2.46!

$\frac{246}{1000}$
$\frac{246}{1000} = 246 \div 1000 = 0.246$
$2\frac{46}{1000}$
$2\frac{46}{1000} = \frac{1023}{500} = 1023 \div 500 = 2.046$
$2 \frac{23}{50} = \frac{123}{50} = 123 \div 50=2.46$ <-- You're answer.
$\frac{223}{500} = 223 \div 500 = 0.446$

Therefore you're answer is option C "2 23/50." Remember when wanting to find the decimal divide the numerator by the denominator after you convert the mixed number (if it's a mixed number) into a improper fraction!

Hope this helps!

Olivia family drove to Disney land For spring break. Her mom and dad shared the driving duties for a total of 14 hours. her mom

Kay [80]

Mom drove for 11 hours.

Dad drove for 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total hours = 14 hours

Total distance = 895 miles

Mom drove a speed of 65 mph

Dad drove a speed of 60 mph

Let 'x' be the number of hours drove by mom.

Let 'y' be the number of hours drove by dad.

x + y = 14 ---------------(1)

65x + 60y = 895 ---------(2)

Multiply eq(1) by 60 and subtract eq(2) from (1),

60x + 60y = 840

-(65x + 60y = 895)

-5x = -55

x = 55/5

x = 11

∴ Mom drove for 11 hours.

Substitute x=11 in eq(1)

11+y = 14

y = 3

∴ Dad drove for 3 hours.

If a person starts investing $100 per month starting at age 21, and that money earns a 5% return every year, how much will this

aalyn [17]

The formula for calculating compound interest with yearly contributions is:

Balance = X*(1 + Y)^n + Z((1 + Y)^(n + 1) - (1 + Y)/Y)

where the balance is the money earned after n years invested

Y is the interest rate as a fraction

Z is the yearly contribution

X is the starting investment

Therefore the calculation for this example is:

Balance = 1200*(1 + 0.05)^48 + 1200((1.05)^49 - (1.05)/05)

= $249,393.5
