The answer to this question is 14 3/4
"950 feet in 19 minutes" can be expressed as the rate (950/19) (ft/min), and is negative because the diver is descending (going downward).
Simplifying, -950/19 (ft/min) = -50 (ft/min)
the answer would be b the answer is 114
So 45% OF 40 is
45% * 40
0.45 * 40
that is 18
18 is 18% of what number?
18 = 18% * x
18 = 0.18 * x
divide both sides by 0.18
100 = x
45 % of 40, which is 18, and is 18% of 100.
Hope this helps
