First you find 80% of 90. Set up the proportion:
80 X
—— = —-
100 90
I’m simplifying the 80/100 so it’ll be easier to solve:
4 X
— = —-
5 90
Then cross multiply:
4(90) = 5x
360 = 5x
x = 72
So 80% of 90 is 72. (Or you could have multiplied 90 by 0.8 as a shortcut). Now you find 15% of 72. You can either multiply 72 by 0.15 or set up the proportion like this:
15 X
—— = —-
100 72
Cross multiply and solve. You should get 10.8
They are 0.00005524 miles apart from each other because 1 in equals 0.00001578 miles
The 9 is in the one hundred thousand's place
Inverse variation is of the form y=k/x (direct variation is of the form y=kx)
We are given that x=2 when y=1 so using the inverse form y=k/x we can solve for the constant of variation...
1=k/2
k=2
so the equation is:
y=2/x now they want us to find y when x=-1 so
y=2/-1
y=-2
Answer:
<h2>1/2⁷</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 is multiplied by itself 7 times, thus an exponent of 7.
I'm always happy to help :)
