It should be 34/5*. If you create an improper fraction out of the original one, then creating the reciprocal will be easier.
The price:
- last year: $2.25
- this year: $.45
The decrease: $2.25 - $.45 = $1.80
2.25 : 1.80 = 100 : x
2.25 x = 180
x = 180 : 2.25
x = 80
Answer:
The percent of decrease is A ) 80%
40.92 ounces.
You can find it by multiplying 124 by 0.33
You can write this ratio in two other ways:
7 to 13
7 : 13
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
The fourth choice, b = +\- sqrt( sg + a^2)
Discussion:
s = (b^2 - a^2)/g => multiply both sides by "g"
sg = b^2 - a^2 => add a^2 to both sides
sg + a^2 = b^2 => take the square root of each side
b = +\- sqrt( sg + a^2)
which is the fourth choice.
Thank you,
MrB
