To answer this item, we let x be the number of 2-point shot made by Pietro. With this representation, the number of 3-point shots made was 0.5x + 2. Adding the two expression is supposed to give us 20. Then, the answer would be,
                                        x + (0.5x + 2) = 20
The value of x is 12. Therefore, Pietro made 12 2-point shots and 8 3-point shots.

Applying the Segment Addition Postulate
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

Find: Length of segment BC

CD+DB=BC

3x+8+4x+10=BC

7x+18=BC

BC also equals 8x (given on the screen shot)

7x+18= 8x

x=18

18 times 8 = 144

Check:

3( 18) + 8 + 4(18) + 10

54+8 + 72+10

64+ 80= 144  TRUE

153 is 0.9% of what number? Tell which equivalent ratios you used to find the solution
Naddik [55]
0.9% / 100% = 0.009
= 9/1000

equivalent ratio:
9/1000 = 153/x

cross multiply
9x = 153,000
x = 153,000/9
x = 17,000

153/17,000 = 0.009

Can you explain to me the answers in a and b?
Hoochie [10]

a. The constant of proportionality is k = 2

b. If Micah saves $150, his parents will give him $300

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<h3>PART A.</h3>

From mathematics, we know that y varies directly as x or y is directly proportional to x if and only if:

y=kx for some nonzero constant k.

Here we know some facts:

  • For every $5 that Micah saves, his parents give him $10.

In other words:

Let y be the money his parents give him.

Let x be the money that Micah saves.

We \ know \ that: \\ y=kx \\ \\ \\ Solving \ for \ k: \\ \\ k=\frac{y}{x} \\ \\ k=\frac{10}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{k=2}

So,<em> the constant of proportionality is k = 2</em>

<h3>PART B.</h3>

In this case, we know that Micah saves $150. So we need to find the amount of his parents will give him. So what we know here is the value of x, because x represents the amount of money Micah saves. Therefore, by knowing x and k, we can calculate the value of y, which is the amount of money his parents will give him. Hence:

For \ x=150 \ and \ k=2: \\ \\ y=2(150) \\ \\ \boxed{y=300}

Finally, <em>if Micah saves $150, his parents will give him 300$</em>

Round 0.0825 to four decimal places
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

0.0830

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To Round a number

a) Decide which is the last digit to keep  

b) Leave it the same if the next digit is less than 5 (this is called rounding down)  

c) But increase it by  1 if the next digit is  5 or more (this is called rounding up)

In this problem we have

0.0825

We want to keep the digit 2

The next digit is 5 which is greater or equal than 5, so increase the 2 by 1 to  3

therefore

the answer is  

0.0830
