Mathematics
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

We have (60/100)·x - 17 = - 65;

Then (6/10)·x = 17 - 65;

(3/5)·x = - 48;

x = (5/3)·(-48);

x = 5·(-16);

x = - 80;

Parallelogram PQRS is shown. m/S=(3x), m/R=120, and m/Q=(2y). Find the value of y.A.
fomenos

Option B. From the parallelogram PQRS the value of y is given to be 30

<h3>How to solve for the value of y from the parallelogram</h3>

In order to get the value of y we have to use the formula

2y + 120 = 80

where the value 120 is the angle that is stated as 120 from the question

2y = 180 - 120

2y = 60

y = 60 / 2

y = 30

Hence the value of y = 30

We can go ahead to get the value of x as well

3x + 120 = 180

take the like terms

3x = 180 - 120

3x = 60

divide through by 3 to get x

60 / 3 = x

20 = x

In the equation 0.75s-5/8 = 44, how do you combine the like terms?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given equation, the "like terms" are the constants 5/8 and 44.

It simplifies the math if we eliminate the fractions first.  Note that 0.75 = 6/8, so now we have:

8(6/8)s - 8(5/8) = 44).

Multiplying all three terms by 8 (above) yields

8(6s) - 8(5) = 8(44), or

48s              = 8(44 + 5), or 48s = 8(49)

Dividing both sides by 48 yields s:   s = 8(49/48)

Review "like terms:"  These are terms that have at least one characteristic in common.  5/8 and 44 are like terms because they are only constants (no variables are present).  We must add 5/8 and 44.   0.75s does not have a "like term" in the given equation.

Q #7 please solve the equation
pishuonlain [190]
The relation between a and s is given to be:

a = 640s

where,

a = number of acres
s = number of square miles

We are to find the number of acres for 7.5 square miles.

This means, s = 7.5

Using the value in the formula, we get:

a = 640 x 7.5 = 4800 acres

So the answer to this question is option B
