-16 = 8x/5......8x/5 is the same as 8/5(x)
-16 = (8/5)x...divide both sides by 8/5
-16 / (8/5) = x
-16 * 5/8 = x
-80/8 = x
-10 = x <===
I think it’s 72/5 there’s the proof I hope im was helpful
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
The percent in the problem is 60% (as it has a percent time).
The base is the number we start with, so it is 485.
The amount is the percent of the base. As a decimal, 60% is 0.6. So, we just multiply this by 485.
0.6×485=291
Therefore, the amount is 291.
AMOUNT: 291
BASE: 485
PERCENT: 60%
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
60 kilometers per hour (kmph) over the limit
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed limit is 60 kmph
Let's find his original rate:
We know D = RT
Where
D is the distance, in km
R is the rate, in kmph
T is the time in hours
He went 10 km in 5 minutes, so we need the time in hours, first. That would be:
5/60 = 1/12 hour
So, putting into formula, we find rate:
D = RT
10 = R(1/12)
R = 10/(1/12)
R = 10 * 12
R = 120 kmph
He was going over by:
120 - 60 = 60 kmph
