Answer:
495
Step-by-step explanation:
1,650 x 0.7 = 1,155
1,650 - 1,155 = 495
(0.7 is the percentage)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
the independent variable is the # of runners while the dependent is the # of water bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
By some properties of logarithms, rewrite the equation as
so that
(<em>a</em> - 2<em>b</em>)² = <em>ab</em>
Expand the left side:
<em>a</em> ² - 4<em>ab</em> + 4<em>b</em> ² = <em>ab</em>
Rearrange terms to get a quadratic equation in <em>a</em>/<em>b</em> :
<em>a</em> ² - 5<em>ab</em> + 4<em>b</em> ² = 0
<em>b</em> must be greater than 0, otherwise log(<em>b</em>) doesn't exist, and the same goes for <em>a</em>. So we can divide by <em>b</em> ² to get
<em>a</em> ²/<em>b</em> ² - 5<em>a</em>/<em>b</em> + 4 = 0
Factorize and solve for <em>a</em>/<em>b</em> :
(<em>a</em>/<em>b</em> - 4) (<em>a</em>/<em>b</em> - 1) = 0
==> <em>a</em>/<em>b</em> = 4 or <em>a</em>/<em>b</em> = 1
However, if <em>a</em>/<em>b</em> = 1, then <em>a</em> = <em>b</em> makes <em>a</em> - 2<em>b</em> = -<em>b</em>. But we must have <em>b</em> > 0, so we omit the second solution and end up with
<em>a</em>/<em>b</em> = 4
Given the graph, we need to look for the equation of the line using the linear equation since the plot is obviously a line.
To do that, we need two points. The simplest points to locate are the two points that converges the x and y axes which are (3,0) and (4,0), respectively. Now we apply the linear equation formulation:
y = mx+b
First, we need to get the slope.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (4-0)/(0-3)
m = -4/3
Since we know the slope, we need to look for the b which is also the y-intercept or the point at which x = 0.
So at x = 0, which point or value at y-axis hits with the line? It is the point (0,4).
Therefore, b = 4.
Completing the equation,
y = -(4/3)x + 4
or we can write it as
4x + 3y = 12.
Now to know which of the choices is correct, we simply assign values and see for ourselves which is true.
Let x = 2, so y = 2
4(2) + 3y = 12
8 < 12
If you assign more values, you will notice that 4x + 3y is always less than or equal to 12. Thus, the answer is letter a.
Answer:
B. 75%
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply the numerator and the denominator by 25. 3*25/4*25=75/100. 3/4=75%.
