Answer:

83%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to calculate is how much less time she plays per day.

 

3 hours - X = 30 minutes

x = 2.5 hours

 

Now that you know how much time has decreased, you need to figure out what percent of the original time the decreased time is.

 

In other words, decreased time = x * 3 hours

 

Plug in the decreased time to get:

2.5 hours = x * 3 hours

x = 2.5/3

x = 0.83333333333333 = 83.333333% rounds to 83%.

 

Therefore, 30 minutes is a 83% decrease in playing time from the original time of 3 hours.

Answer:

83% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

She can play video games 180 minutes a day. Now she can only play 30 minutes a day.

       \frac{180 - 30}{180} * 100%

 =    \frac{150}{180} * 100%

 =    \frac{5}{6} * 100%

 =    83%

Write the standard form of the equation that is parallel to y = -6x + 5 and goes through point (4, 4).
steposvetlana [31]

6x + y = 28.  The standard form of the equation that is parallel to y = -6x + 5 and goes through point (4, 4) is 6x + y = 28.

The equation is written in the slope-intercept form y = mx +b. So:

y = -6x + 5

The slope m = -6

Since the slopes of parallel lines are the same, we are looking for a slope line m = -6 and goes through point (4, 4).

With the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

Introducing the slope m = -6:

y = -6x + b

Introducing the point (4, 4):

4 = -6(4) + b

b = 4 + 6(4)

b= 24 + 4

b = 28

Then

y = -6x + 28

write the equation in standard form ax + by = c:

y = -6x + 28

6x + y = 28

Tom saves $750 a year. Bill saves $60 a month. How much more does Tom save a year than Bill?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

B) 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill saves 60 dollars a month so first you have to find out how much he saves in a year

To find that you multiply 60 by 12 since there are 12 months in a year

60*12 = 720

Tom saves 750 in a year so you have to subtract 750 by 720 to know how much more tom saves

750 - 720 = 30
