Answer:

1/2 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming you meant "lives 5km"

The first km would take 1/4 an hour because she is going 4km/h for one hour. One hour she would go 4km but we only need 1 mile so it would be cut to a fraction.

The same fraction goes for the bus. 4 is 1/4 of 16 so you would have to add them together and have 1/2 and hour to get home.

Convert a markup of 15% on selling price to its equivalent markup on cost.
spayn [35]

Answer:

option: D is correct. (  (D) a markup of 15% on selling price is equivalent to a 85% markup on cost ).

Step-by-step explanation:

" Markup is the percentage difference between a product's cost and its selling price "

Since we are asked to Convert a markup of 15% on selling price to its equivalent markup on cost.

As there is a markup of  15% on selling price. Hence the cost of the product would be (100-15)%=85% of the selling price.

<em>Hence, a markup of 15% on selling price is equivalent to a 85% markup on cost.</em>

<em>Hence, option D is true.</em>

Find a linear equation whose graph is the straight line with the given property.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 9/8

Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make

if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8

y = -6x + c

-6 / 3/4  + 9/8 / - 0.5  = -2.25

therefore c = -2.25

y = -6x - 2.25

y = -6x - 9/4  and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

C1)    (0.5 , -0.75)

C2)   ( 1. -3.75)

y = mx + c

-3.75 - - 0.75  /   1 - 0.5  = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5

= -3 / 0.5 = m

m = -6

y = -6x + c

then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points

y - y1 = mx+c

y - - 0.75 =  0.75 (x - x1)

y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)

y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375

y = 0.75 - 0.75   =  0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)

y = 0.75x -1.125

y = 3/4x - 9/8    as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by  125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.

Whats wrong in this equation ?
Inga [223]
The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.

1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________


Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:

1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________

1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6

Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.

5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6

Then, simplify

65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
