Let

x--------> the number


we know that

35 % is equal to

\frac{35}{100} =0.35


x*0.35=42


divide by 0.35 both sides


x*\frac{0.35}{0.35} =\frac{42}{0.35\\}\\ \\   x=\frac{42}{0.35} \\ \\  x=120


therefore


the answer is

120

What is the term, coefficient, constant, and factor of 1/2(base1 + base2)h? (Formula used to find area of trapezoid)
vovangra [49]

Answer:

i. Term = \frac{b_{1}h }{2} + \frac{b_{2}h }{2}

ii. Coefficient = \frac{1}{2}

iii. Constant = \frac{1}{2}

iv. Factor = \frac{h}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral which has its base parallel to the opposite side. It's area can be determined by;

Area of trapezium = \frac{1}{2} (b_{1} + b_{2})h

Where b_{1} is the measure of length of its fist base,  b_{2} is the measure of its second base and h is its height.

Considering the given question,

Term = \frac{b_{1}h }{2} + \frac{b_{2}h }{2}

Coefficient = \frac{1}{2}

Constant = \frac{1}{2}

Factor = \frac{h}{2}

A car with a tank that holds 11.6 gallons of gasoline is using 1.45 gallons per hour. Is the tank more than half full of gasolin
spayn [35]
No, because 11.6/2 is 5.8 so 5.8 is half of the tank. if it uses 1.45 per hour and it's used for 3.5 hours there will only be 5.075
