Answer:

x=66.667

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, if y varies directly with a value x, you get an equation of the form y=kx, where k is a constant. To answer the question, first substitute 9 into y, and 24 into x.

9=24k

k=0.375

k is 0.375, so to get x, substitute 0.375 into k and 25 into y

25=0.375x

x=66.667

And we got it!

On a rectangular piece of cardboard with perimeter 10 inches, three parallel and equally spaced creases are made (see Figure 1).

salantis [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

x = 5/6 in ≈ 0.83 in
v = 125/108 in³ ≈ 1.16 in³

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The width of the cardboard (in inches) will be 4x, and its length will be (5-4x) so the perimeter adds up to 10 in. Then the volume is the product of the area of the open ends (x²) and the length (5-4x).

The graphing calculator shows that volume is maximized when the value of x is 0.833, or 5/6 inch. The corresponding length is 5-4x = 5/3 inch, so the volume is ...

... v = (5/6)²×(5/3) = 125/108 . . . . in³

The corresponding decimal values of x and volume are ...

... x ≈ 0.83 in

... v ≈ 1.16 in³

Eighty percent of one store’s customers paid with credit cards. Forty customers came in that day. How many customers paid for th

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

40 = 100%

how many are 80% ?

well, 80% = 80× 1%

1% = 100% / 100

so, in our case

80% = 80×40/100 = 8×4 = 32

as a shortcut you consider a percentage x as a ratio factor of x/100 you multiply the 100% number with.

in our case

80% = 40 × 80/100 = 32

The polynomial is a difference squares. Use the formula a^2 -b^2=(a+b)(a-b) to factor completely. 81x^2-49 the value of a is the

AnnZ [28]

Answer: $(9x)^{2}-(7)^{2}=(9x-7)(9x+7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition you have that the difference of squares is:

$a^{2}-b^{2}=(a+b)(a-b)$

2. Given the polynomial:

$81x^{2}-49$

You can identify that there are two terms whose signs are different and they are perfect squares.

3. Therefore, you have:

$81x^{2}-49=(9x)^{2}-(7)^{2}=(9x-7)(9x+7)$

Six less than six timesa number is 12

vovangra [49]

Six (6) less than (subtraction) six (6) times (multiplication) a number (n) is (=) 12.

6n - 6 = 12

To solve, add 6 to both sides

6n = 18 Dviide both sides by 6
n = 3
