Answer:

11x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We add up all the sides to find the perimeter of the triangle

4x+1 + x-7 + 6x+2 = Perimeter

Combine like terms

4x+x+6x +1-7+2

11x -4

Answer:

11x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter (P) is the sum of the three sides, which is ...

P = (4x +1) +(x -7) +(6x +2)

P = (4+1+6)x +(1 -7 +2)

P = 11x -4

Rename 4/7 as a percent. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.

enyata [817]

Answer:

Part 1) Option C. 57.1%

Part 2) Option B. 70.9%

Part 3) Option C. 66 2/3 %

Part 4) Option A. About 16

Part 5) Option A. About $12

Part 6) Option B. About $9

Part 7) Option B. x/50=70/100

Part 8) Option B. 25%

Part 9) Option D. 800

Part 10) $1,770

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Rename 4/7 as a percent

we know that

To rename a number as a percent, multiply the number by 100

(4/7)*100=400/7=57.1%

Part 2) Rename .709 as a percent

we know that

To rename a number as a percent, multiply the number by 100

0.709*100=70.9%

Part 3) If 1/3 is equivalent to 33 1/3% what percent is equivalent to 2/3?

we know that

33 1/3%=(33*3+1)/3 %=100/3 %

By proportion

(100/3 %)/(1/3)=x/(2/3)

x=200/3 %=66 2/3 %

Part 4) Alice plays basketball. In one game she shoots 21 free throws and makes 81.25% of them. Estimate how many she makes

To find the exact value multiply the total shoots by the percentage

21*(81.25/100)=17.06

<em>To find the estimate value</em>

21 shoots is about 20

81.25% is about 80%

20*(80/100)=16

the answer is about 16

Part 5) Estimate 48% of 23.95

To find the exact value multiply the number by the percentage

23.95*(48/100)=11.50

<em>To find the estimate value</em>

23.95 is about 24

48% is about 50%

24*(50/100)=12

Part 6) The bill at a restraint is $58.50 and Mrs. Johnson wants to leave a 15% tip. Approximately how much money

To find the exact value multiply the bill by the percentage

$58.50*(15/100)=$8.78

<em>To find the approximate value</em>

$58.50 is about $60

$60*(15/100)=$9

Part 7) Which proportion can be used to solve the following percent problem? What is 50% if 100% is 70?

using proportion

x/50=70/100

x=70*50/100

x=35

Part 8) What percent of 50 is 12.5?

using proportion

50/100%=12.5/x%

x=100*12.5/50

x=25%

Part 9) 50 Is 6.25% of what number?

using proportion

50/6.25%=x/100%

x=100*50/6.25

x=800

Part 10) Chris works at Higgins’ Automart and is selling a new Shelby Mustang for $59,000. If he earns a commission of 3%, how much money does he earn?

we know that

$59,000 ------> represent the 100%

using proportion

Find how much money represent 3% of the commission

59,000/100%=x/3%

X=$59,000*(3/100)=$1,770

A snail can move 1/30 miles in 1/3 hour. How fast does a snail move in miles /hours

bekas [8.4K]

Answer: 1/10 miles/hour

To find how fast a snail moves in miles per hour, we can find the unit rate using a proportion.

The unit rate is the amount per one unit. In this problem, the unit is for one hour. One way to find the unit rate is by using a proportion.

<h2>Proportions</h2>

Proportions look like two fractions set equal to each other with a missing variable to solve.

<h3>State our variables</h3>

let <em>x</em> be the number of miles per hour

<h3>Write a proportion</h3>

The first fraction has a number for the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom), because the question gives us the information. The second fraction has a missing value, <em>x</em>, that we are solving for. We can write <em>x</em> in the numerator.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{x\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

<h2>Solve</h2>

We can solve by finding the scale factor. The scale factor is the number we can multiply the numerator by to find <em>x</em>.

<h3>Find the scale factor</h3>

Start with the proportion.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{x\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

To find the scale factor,

Take the denominator from the fraction with a variable: $1\ hr$
Take the denominator from the fraction that has no variable: $\frac{1}{3}\ hr$
Divide step 1 by step 2 and solve: $1\ hr\ \div\ \frac{1}{3}\ hr = 3$

Our scale factor is <u>3</u>.

<h3>Solve for x</h3>

We can find <em>x</em> by multiplying the numerator in the first fraction by the scale factor. This is because <em>x</em> is also in the numerator.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{(\frac{1}{30}\ mi)*3}{1\ hr}}$

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{\frac{3}{30}\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

Simplify 3/30 by dividing the fraction by 3.

$\displaystyle{\frac{\frac{1}{30}\ mi}{\frac{1}{3}\ hr} = \frac{\frac{1}{10}\ mi}{1\ hr}}$

x = 1/10

∴ a snail moves 1/10 miles per hour.

I need help. This isn’t school related but it’s for my early college essay. The topic is why is early college a good fit for me?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Early college provides high school students the ability to get a sneak-peak into what college is like as a whole. Credits, professors, homework, campus and friends don't need to be intimidating topics anymore.
