Answer:

  8 1/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Why would 6% as a fraction be 6/100?
dangina [55]
Well, percent (%) means per hundred, and your number is 6. Therefore, you have 6 per hundred, or 6/100. Also, when you have a percent and want to convert it into a fraction, you must divide the percent by 100, so you could just put the six over 100 since the line between the numerator and denominator basically means division.

Which values of k would cause this system of equations to have no solution? Check all that apply.
xeze [42]

Answer:

x= -2y/3

-4y+4y=14

0y= 14

This has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer In cases of two equations having two unknown variables the simultaneous method of solving the equations is adopted.

Supposing “0” as the value of “k” we will have the equation as 3x+2y=0

Then separating variable x will give, x= -2y/3

Substituting the value of x into the first equation that is: 6x + 4y = 14

6(-2y/3)+4y=14

Expanding this we get: 6(-2y/3)+4y=14

-4y+4y=14

0y= 14

Thus, no solution.

For what power of q is its value 1?​
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

  0, for q ≠ 0 and q ≠ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming q ≠ 0, you want to find the value of x such that ...

  q^x = 1

This is solved using logarithms.

__

  x·log(q) = log(1) = 0

The zero product rule tells us this will have two solutions:

  x = 0

  log(q) = 0   ⇒   q = 1

If q is not 0 or 1, then its value is 1 when raised to the 0 power. If q is 1, then its value will be 1 when raised to <em>any</em> power.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The applicable rule of logarithms is ...

  log(a^b) = b·log(a)

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Looks like you've already found the y-intercept and slope of this graph. Great! That's all the info we need to create an equation.

The equation of a line is always in y = kx+b form, where k is the constant of proportionality (aka the slope) and b is the constant added (aka the y-intercept).

We know the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is 3, so we can put these values into the equation.

y = 3x+3

Hope this helped!
