What is 5/8 as a percent and a decimal

Mathematics

To write a fraction as a percent, first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100. If we want to write 5/8 as a percent, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 5/8 that has a 100 in the denominator. We can do this by setting up a proportion.

\frac{5}{8} = \frac{n}{100}

<h3 /><h3>8n = 500</h3><h3>÷8     ÷8</h3><h3>    n = 62.5%</h3><h3>Therefore, 5/8 is equal to 62.5%.</h3><h3 />

To write a fraction as a decimal, we can simply divide the numerator by the denominator.

5 ÷ 8 = 0.625

Therefore, 5/8 is equal to 0.625.

-2log5 7x=2<br><br> the 5 is small please help me
RSB [31]
-2log_5 7x = log_5 2

log_5[1/(7x)^2] = log_5 2

log_5(1/49x^2) = log_5 2

log_5(1 - 49x^2) = log_5 2

1 - 49x^2 = 2

You finish.

Most plumbing companies charge a fee to come to your house plus a charge per hour of work. The fees and charges for two plumbing
lord [1]

Answer:

Company A: y=40x+50

Company B: y=50x+25

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial fee is the y-intercept, as that is the cost at x = 0, or the cost before any time has passed. Afterwards, the rate the cost increases is the slope.

Linear equation in slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Company A charges $50 up front and $40 per hour afterwards, so the equation would be:

y=40x+50

Company B charges $25 up front and $50 per hour, so:

y=50x+25
