Convert all to decimals
percent means parts out of 100
13%=13/100=0.13
'of' means mutiply
Tom=13% of 4
tom=0.13 times 4
tom=0.52 lb
Lisa=0.6 lb
Jane=0.12 of 4
jane=0.12 times 2
jane=0.48
Tom=0.52
Lisa=0.60
Jane=0.48
Lisa used the most
Answer:
143
Step-by-step explanation:
lets make a fraction:
so
91 oil changes/7days
lets take "x" as the unknown # of oil changes:
so
x/11
91/7=x/11
we can cross multiply:
91*11=7*x
1001=7x
143=x
so 143 oil changes in 11 days
Hope this helps!
Answer:
segment EF over segment LM equals segment FG over segment MN
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar, not congruent, so any answer choice with the word "congruent" can be ignored.
The sequence of letters in the triangle name tells you the corresponding segments:
- EF corresponds to LM
- EG corresponds to LN
- FG corresponds to MN
Corresponding segments have the same ratio, so ...
EF/LM = FG/MN . . . . . . matches the first answer choice
EF/LM = EG/LN . . . . does not match the 3rd answer choice
To effectively determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to write this into an algebraic expression. We let x as the number. We do as follows:
<span>Four times the square of a certain number increased by 6 times the number equals 108.
4x^2 + 6x = 108
The numbers can be either of the following since the equation generated was a quadratic equation which has two roots.
x = 4.5
x = -6 </span>
