Solve x/48 = 5/6 using two different strategies.

1 answer:

5 0

You can do this:
6 * ? = 48, ? = 8, so you multiply the five by 8 too, and you find that x = 40. Another method you can use would just to be to add 5 to the top and 6 to the bottom until the denominators equal each other.

The solution to an inequality is given in interval notation as (2, ∞). What is another way to represent this solution set? A num

Leya [2.2K]

The solution is in parenthesis, so this means the numbers are included in the answer. Since the first number is 2, 2 is a possible answer so the circle at positive two would be solid.

The other solution is infinity, so the answers are any number to the right of the 2 on the number line.

This makes the answer: A solid circle appears at positive 2. The number line is shaded between positive 2 and positive 5.

A group of students auditioned for a theater performance and 3/4 of the group less six students made up the cast of 42 students.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

3/4x-6=42

x=64

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of students be x hence 3/4 of this number will be 3/4x

Since the number was 42 if they were 3/4x less six, it means minus six hence

3/4x-6=42

Therefore, the equation will be

3/4x-6=42

Solving the equation

3/4 x=42+6=48

3/4x=48

X=62

20,000 has been placed in a bank account that earns 5.7% interest. How much money will be in the account if it is compounded sem

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

$25 821.69

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the future value (FV) of an investment is

FV =PV(1 + r/n)^nt

FV = 20 000(1 + 0.087/2)^(2×3)

FV = 20 000(1 + 0.0435)⁶

FV = 20 000(1.0435)⁶

FV = 20 000 × 1.291 0847

FV = $25 821.69
