Hi, Which of these percentages is closest in value to 7/9

1 answer:

4 0

To find a percentage, you need to divide 7 by 9 to find out what 7/9 is.
It turns out to be 0.777 repeating.
To find a percentage, you need to move the decimal place over by two to the right, so 7/9 is equals to 77.77%.
If you round that, then 77.77% is closest to 78%.

Hope this helps!

Solve the equation 3/4x+3-2x = -1/4+1/2x+5

elena55 [62]

Hi there! The answer is x = -1

Let's solve this equation step by step!
$\frac{3}{4} x + 3 - 2x = - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} x + 5$

First collect terms.
$- 1 \frac{1}{4} x + 3 = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 \frac{3}{4}$

Subtract (1/2)x from both sides.
$- 1\frac{3}{4} x + 3 = 4 \frac{3}{4}$

Subtract 3 from both sides.
$- 1\frac{3}{4} x = 1 \frac{3}{4}$

And finally divide by -1 3/4
$x = \frac{7}{4} \div - \frac{7}{4} = \frac{7}{4} \times - \frac{4}{7} = - \frac{28}{28} = - 1$

An arrow on a spinner is spun 250 times. Some of the results are shown below. The relative frequency of landing on a 4 is the sa

N76 [4]

Answer:

11/50

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequency numbers for landing on 1, 2, and 3 are:

25, 53, 62.

We add them up to get: 25 + 53 + 62 = 140

Since 250 spins were made, and 140 of them landed on 1, 2, or 3, then

250 - 140 = 110,

so 110 landed on 4 or 5.

We are told the numbers of spins landing on 4 and 5 are equal, so

110/2 = 55,

so the spinner landed 55 times on 4 and 55 times on 5.

relative frequency = 55/250 = 11/50

When you divide the number of permutations of 11 objects taken 3 at a time by 3!, you will get the number of combinations of 11

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation :

nPr = n! ÷ (n - r)!

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

11 objects taken 3 at a time :

11P3 = 11! ÷ (11 - 3)!

11P3 = 11! / 8!

11P3 = (11 * 10 * 9 )

11P3 = 990

Dividing by 3!

3! = 3*2*1 = 6

= 990 / 6

= 165

For combination :

11C3 = 11! ÷ 8!3!

11C3 = (11 * 10 * 9) / (3 * 2 * 1)

11C3 = 990 / 6

11C3

X, Y and Z are three points on a map. Y is 43km and on a bearing of 041° from X. Z is 67km and on a bearing of 117° from X. Calc

Helen [10]

Answer:

70.3km

Step-by-step explanation:

When the bearings are visualized and the points connected as a triangle, The angle x would be the difference of the both bearings from x

i.e 117-41 = 76

Using cosine rule,

YZ²= 43² + 67² - 2 x 43 x 67

cos76

YZ= √4944

= 70.3
