Answer:

The fraction of horses that are Morgan's=17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine fraction for each breed

Arabians=1/4

Thoroughbreds=2/5

Morgan's=unknown

Step 2: Express each breed as a fraction of the total

Number of Arabians=fraction of Arabians×total number of horses

Let total number of horses be x

Arabians=(1/4)×x=1/4 x

Thoroughbreds=(2/5)×x=2/5 x

Morgans's=m

Step 3: Calculate fraction of Morgans

Total number of horses=Arabians+Thoroughbreds+Morgans

x=(1/4)x+(2/5)x+m

solve for m;

m=x-(1/4)x-(2/5)x

m=x-3/20x

m=17/20 x

The fraction of horses that are Morgan's=17/20

The new balance of a charge account is $145.00. The minimum payment is $20.00. If the interest rate is 1.5%, how much will the n
juin [17]
The balance is $145 but after one makes he minimum payment of $20, there is $125 left to pay. However interest is added before the next month’s bill is generated.

Remember that percent means out of 100. 1.5% means 1.5/100 = .015

To find 1.5% of 125 we multiply (.015)(125) = 1.875 But as this is money the interest is rounded to two decimal places and so is $1.88

We add this to 125 to get next month’s balance which is 125 + 1.88 = $126.88

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. A number line that goes from 95 to 103. A closed circle is at 98.6. Everything to the right is shaded.

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent x greater-than-or-equal-to 98.6 on the number line we note that an open circle stands for either a less than or a greater than, while an open circle stands for either less than or equal to or greater than or equal to

The correct way to represent x greater than or equal to 98.6 on the number line, we indicate the point 98.6 with a closed circle and we shade everything in the region of the solution which is to the right of the closed circle

Therefore the correct option is A. A number line that goes from 95 to 103. A closed circle at is at 98.6. Everyting to the right is shaded.
