Carol spends 52.5 hours practicing her culinary skills in a 5 week period.
17*2= 44 hours for 4 weeks
17/2= 8.5 for 1 week (half of 2 week period)
44+8.5= 52.5
You would multiply that number by 1.175
Remember that 17.5%=17.5/100=0.175
I this case, there is a whole number that is increasing by 17.5% so we add a whole to the 17.5%
100%+17.5%=117.5% or 1.175
So if 'x' was the number, the expression would look like:
1.175x
Answer:
4,800
Step-by-step explanation:
(14,700- 1,500) / 2 h 45 m
= 13,200 / 2.75
= 4,800 L/h
Answer: the answer is 7
Step-by-step explanation: add 9 to both sides, eliminating -9 so now you have 7x=49 divide both by 7 and you get x= 7 check it by inputing 7 for x, 7(7)-9=40
7(7)=49 next 49-9= 40
it checks out, so x= 7
Answer in fraction form = 1/20
Answer in decimal form = 0.05
Answer in percent form = 5%
These are three ways to express the same thing

Explanation:
Assume the gumball machine only has 5 gumballs, one of each color. The probability of getting yellow is 1/5 since there is one that is yellow out of 5 total.
The probability of getting a lion rubber band is 1/4 for similar reasoning as above.
Because the two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, this means we can multiply the two probabilities to get (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20
Use your calculator to see that 1/20 = 0.05 which converts to 5% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.
