Answer:

639 points

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

710 points

to calculate

10 % decreases

so,

10 % of 710 points

= $\dfrac{10}{100} \times 710$

= 0.1 × 710

= 71 points

After decreasing 10% value

= 710 points - 71 points

= 639 points

Hence after decreasing 710 points by 10% we get 639 points

morpeh [17]

20 ft because the shadow would be 3/2 of the height. 9 is 3/2 of 6 so the height would be 20 bc 30 is 3/2 of 20

How would I do this with working ?

You Just want to get Fahrenheit alone on one side of the equal sign. Your teacher forgot to use parenthesis. The correct equation for Celsius to Fahrenheit is: $C= \frac{5}{9} (F-32)$

Which will give you a completely different answer.... $F = \frac{9}{5} C + 32$

****

We will solve it using what is given:

C = (5/9)F - 32

C + 32 = (5/9)F

9(C + 32) = 5F

(9/5)(C + 32) = F

** If they mark you wrong, and try to say the answer is F = (9/5)C + 32 then they shouldn't be teaching math, and you should point out the fact there are no parenthesis around the F - 32 in the given formula.
