Answer:
%37.5
Step-by-step explanation:
.375 aka %37.5
If we did .375 x 40 it would be 15. 40-15=25
Hello!
3x + 4 = 10

Answer:
x = 7.5y
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
4.2(2x + -0.5y) + -2(4.1x + -0.3y) = 0
(2x * 4.2 + -0.5y * 4.2) + -2(4.1x + -0.3y) = 0
(8.4x + -2.1y) + -2(4.1x + -0.3y) = 0
8.4x + -2.1y + (4.1x * -2 + -0.3y * -2) = 0
8.4x + -2.1y + (-8.2x + 0.6y) = 0
Reorder the terms:
8.4x + -8.2x + -2.1y + 0.6y = 0
Combine like terms: 8.4x + -8.2x = 0.2x
0.2x + -2.1y + 0.6y = 0
Combine like terms: -2.1y + 0.6y = -1.5y
0.2x + -1.5y = 0
Solving
0.2x + -1.5y = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '1.5y' to each side of the equation.
0.2x + -1.5y + 1.5y = 0 + 1.5y
Combine like terms: -1.5y + 1.5y = 0.0
0.2x + 0.0 = 0 + 1.5y
0.2x = 0 + 1.5y
Remove the zero:
0.2x = 1.5y
Divide each side by '0.2'.
x = 7.5y
Simplifying
x = 7.5y
Answer:
You kayak 255 feet farther 5 minutes on the way down the river than in 5 minutes on the way up the river
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The rate at which you kayak up a river = 48 feet every 30 seconds.
The rate at which you kayak down a river = 423 feet every 3 minutes
To Find:
How much farther do you kayak in 5 minutes on the way down the river than in 5 minutes on the way up the river = ?
Solution:
Let the speed with which you kayak up the river be x and the speed with which you kayak down the river be y
Then
x =
[ Converting 30 seconds to 0.5 minutes]
x = 96 feet per minute
Similarly
y =
y = 141 feet per minute
Now the distance kayaked up the river in 5 minutes
=>
=>
( in 5 minutes there are 10 30 minutes)
=>960 feet
Now the distance kayaked down the river in 5 minutes
=>
=>
( in 5 minutes there are 10 30 minutes)
=>705 feet
Thus
960-705 = 255 feet
You are adding 1 1/3 each time
so 3 1/3 + 1 1/3 = 4 2/3
4 2/3 is your answer
hope this helps
