Si el velocimetro de un auto marca un 25% mas que la verdadera velocidad y en este momento marca 100km/h entonces la velocidad v

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

True speed of the car is 87 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = 100 km/h

hike in speed = 25 %

Let the true speed is v.

$v + 15% of v = 100 \\\\v + 0.15 v = 100 \\\\1.5 v = 100\\\\ v = 87 km/h$

For the straight line defined by the points (3, 59) and (5, 87), determine the slope and y-intercept. do not round the answers.

Margarita [4]

(3,59)(5,87)
slope = (87 - 59) / (5 - 3) = 28/2 = 14 <== ur slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 14
use either of ur points...(3,59)...x = 3 and y = 59
now we sub and find b, the y int
59 = 14(3) + b
59 = 42 + b
59 - 42 = b
17 = b <=== ur y int (0,17)

When given an inverse variation, how do you find k?

atroni [7]

Considering an inverse proportional relationship, you find k taking a point (x,y), and multiplying the values of x and y.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

For an inverse relationship, the function is:

$y = \frac{k}{x}$ .

Then:

k = xy.

Which means that to find k, you take a point (x,y), and multiply the values of x and y.

What is the decimal multiplier to decrease by 72%?

mixer [17]

Answer:

0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in question that,we have to decrease by 72%.that means from 100% of total, 72% should be decreased. that means an overall of 28% will be left. so if you make a number into 28% of it, it implies that you have decreased that number by 72%.so from this,we can say that we have to make the number 28%.that means we have to multiply the number with 28/100 which is equal to 0.28.
