How do you work out 2/5 of 10

Mathematics

Tatiana [17]3 years ago

A simple way is to work out 1/5 first. To work out 1/5 of something you divide it by 5. So 10 divided by 5 is 2. So this means 1/5 is 2. However we want 2/5 not 1/5. To get 2/5 we just double 1/5. 1/5*2 is 4. This means 2/5 is the same as 4. Your answer is 4.

This is an example of multiplication of fractions.
2/5 of 10 means (2/5)*10. It can also be written as (2/5)*(10/1)In order to multiply fractions, just multiply the numerators which are 2 and 10 and the product is 20. And multiply also the denominators which are 5 and 1 and the product is 5. The result would be written as 20/5. The final answer should be written in simplified form which is 4.
Solution: (2/5)*10 = (2/5)*(10/1) = 20/5 = 4

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-6,7) and is perpendicular to the line
Temka [501]

The equation of line perpendicular to given line through (-6,7) is:

y=\frac{1}{6}x+8

Further explanation:

Given equation of line is:

6x+y=3\\y= -6x+3

The co-efficient of x is the slope of given line.

Let m1 be the slope of given line

and

m2 be the slope of line perpendicular to given line

Then

m_1=-6

Product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1

m_1*m_2 = -1\\-6*m_2=-1\\m_2=\frac{-1}{-6}\\m_2=\frac{1}6}

The equation of new line can be written as:

y=m_2x+b\\

Putting m2

y=\frac{1}{6}x+b

To find the value of b, we will put (-6,7) in equation

7=\frac{1}{6}(-6)+b\\7=-1+b\\b=7+1\\b=8

Putting the values of b and m in general equation

y=\frac{1}{6}x+8

Keywords: Slope, Point-slope form, perpendicular lines

Solving and graphing systems of equations
dusya [7]
Hey Jackson!

-4x + 3y = 3
y = 2x + 1

Ok so what we need to do is solving y= 2x + 1 for y.

So let's start by using the substitution method :)

Substitute 2x + 1 for y in -4x + 3y = 3

-4x+ 3y = 3

-4x + 3(2x + 1) = 3

-4x + (3)(2x) + (3)(1) = 3

-4x + 6x + 3 = 3

2x + 3 = 3

Subtract 3 on both sides

2x + 3 - 3 = 3 - 3

2x = 0

x = 0/2

x = 0

So now since we find the number for x, we gonna use it to help us find the value for y.

To find y, we need to substitute 0 for x in y = 2x + 1

y = 2x + 1

y = 2(0) + 1

y = 0 + 1

y = 1

Thus,

The answer is: y = 1 and x = 0

How to graph?

You need to go on the thing where they put the numbers. y is located on top which has the positive numbers. So when you get there, make a line that comes from the top right side all the way to the bottom left sides. Remember that y = 1 so the line must pass through 1

I am not good with explanation. So I'll leave the graph down below then you'll see what I am talking about :)

Let me know if you have any questions. As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!

Does anyone know what to do for this equation? 40 of $2.40= ?
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.96 or .96

Step-by-step explanation:

40 divided by 100 = 0.4 to change the percent to a decimal

and multiply 2.40 to 0.4, 0.4 times 2.40 is 0.96 or .96
