Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

200,000-170,000=30,000

30,000/200,000=0.15, or 15%

What is 1/4 (5y-3)+1/16 (12y+17

netineya [11]

What is the question? If you are only trying to expand the expression then the answer would be:

1/4 (5y-3)+ 1/16 (12y+17)

(5y/4) – (3/4) + (12y/16) + (17/16)

1.25y – 0.75 + 0.75y + 1.0625

2y + 0.3125

If you are trying to find for y, then you forgot to equate it to 0, that is:

2y + 0.3125 = 0

2y = -0.3125

<span>y = 0.15625</span>

Write an equation in standard form<br> Y+1=x+2

vivado [14]

Standard form is when x and y are on one side of the equations and the constants are on the other side. Moving the variables and constants around we get, $-x+y=1$ However we have to make sure the x is not negative. Multiplying all by negative one we get x-y=-1

The midpoint of segment AB has the coordinates M(-4,2). If the coordinates of endpoint A are (-6, -7), find the coordinates of e

GarryVolchara [31]

Given:

The midpoint of segment AB has the coordinates M(-4,2).

The coordinates of endpoint A are (-6, -7).

To find:

The coordinates of B.

Solution:

Let the coordinates of point B are (a,b).

Formula for midpoint:

$Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

The midpoint of segment AB has the coordinates M(-4,2), so by using the above formula we get

$M=\left(\dfrac{-6+a}{2},\dfrac{-7+b}{2}\right)$

$(-4,2)=\left(\dfrac{-6+a}{2},\dfrac{-7+b}{2}\right)$

On comparing both sides, we get

$\dfrac{-6+a}{2}=-4$

$-6+a=-8$

$a=-8+6$

$a=-2$

And,

$\dfrac{-7+b}{2}=2$

$-7+b=4$

$b=4+7$

$b=11$

Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (-2,11).
