Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of p = 10

20% = 0.2

Multiply

0.2p = 10

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5

p = 50

Find 10% of p

10% = 0.1

Multiply

0.1(50)

10% of p is 5

Hope this helps :)

Ray delivered 3/8 of the newspapers on his route in the first hour and 4/5 of the rest in the second hour what fraction of the n

Temka [501]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of Newspapers be x

Number of newspapers delivered in first hour of his route= $\frac{3}{8}$ of x

Total number of newspapers delivered in first hour= $\frac{3}{8}$ x

Number of newspapers left= x- $\frac{3x}{8}$

Number of newspapers left= $\frac{8x-3x}{8}$

Number of newspapers left= $\frac{5x}{8}$

Number of newspapers delivered in second hour=4/5 of $\frac{5x}{8}$

Number of newspapers delivered in second hour= $\frac{x}{2}$

Fraction of newspapers delivered in second hour is= $\frac{1}{2}$

Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{2}$

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Total number of wreaths = 3.5 wreaths

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of medium wreaths = x

Number of larger wreaths = 2[Number of medium wreaths]

Number of small wreaths = [1/2][Number of medium wreaths]

Find:

Total number of wreaths

Computation:

Total number of wreaths = Number of medium wreaths + Number of large wreaths + Number of small wreaths

Total number of wreaths = Number of medium wreaths + 2[Number of medium wreaths] + [1/2][Number of medium wreaths]

Total number of wreaths = x + 2x + 0.5x

Total number of wreaths = 3.5 wreaths

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Height of the ball after 3 seconds = 27.4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 22t + 5.5

h(3) means the height of the ball at time 3 seconds after the ball was thrown.

h(3) = -4.9(3)^2 + 22(3) + 5.5

= 27.4 feet
