\dfrac{5}{8} -  \dfrac{5}{12} ( 3 -  \dfrac{1}{4} )+  \dfrac{2}{3}

= \dfrac{5}{8} -  \dfrac{5}{12} (2\dfrac{3}{4} )+  \dfrac{2}{3}

= \dfrac{5}{8} -  \dfrac{5}{12} (\dfrac{11}{4} )+  \dfrac{2}{3}

= \dfrac{5}{8} -  \dfrac{55}{48}+  \dfrac{2}{3}

= \dfrac{30}{48} -  \dfrac{55}{48}+  \dfrac{32}{48}

= \dfrac{7}{48}

A bicycle store installs about 400 tires per day. Tires are installed Monday through Friday for 8 hours per day. The owner of th
dalvyx [7]
Dividing the number of tires that should be installed per day which  is 400 by the number of working hours which is 8 will give us 50 tires per hour. Assuming that the same mistake will take toll on the workers such that they will have 1 tire mistakenly installed in an hour, they will have 8 erroneous tires in a day. Multiplying this by 5 to make the answer per week will give 40. Out of the 400 x 5  = 2000 tires. The answer would be 2000 - 40 which is equal to 1940. The assumption must be valid.

Quadrilateral ABCD ​ is inscribed in a circle.
Lerok [7]
In general, the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360. This is true for every quadrilateral. This does not help here, because there are two angles (angles B and D) we know nothing about. We only know about opposite angles A and C.

In this case, you can use another theorem.
Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary.

m<A + m<C = 180

3x + 6 + x + 2 = 180

4x + 8 = 180

4x = 172

x = 43

m<A = 3x + 6 = 3(43) + 6 = 135

Answer: 135 deg

What is the growth or decay and the percentage rate of Y=23(0.292)^x
torisob [31]

Answer:

So the decay percentage rate is of 70.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponentil function has the following format:

y = ca^{x}

In which c is a constant.

If a>1, we have that a = 1 + r and r is the growth rate.

If a<1, we have that a = 1 - r and r is the decay rate.

In this problem:

a = 0.292

A is lesser than 1, so r is the decay rate.

1 - r = 0.292

r = 1 - 0.292

r = 0.708

So the decay percentage rate is of 70.8%
