The x coordinate of Q would be 5.

In order to find this, first note that P and R are exactly 2 away from each other (-1 to -3 is two away).

Now, we know that Q is 3 times as far away from R as P is given the ratio at the beginning. Therefore we know it is 6 away from R (2 * 3 = 6).

Now we simply add 6 to the R value to get the Q value.

-1 + 6 = 5

When Sarah divided a number by 5, the quotient was 247 with a remainder. What is one possible dividend? With a complete sentence
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

When a number is divided by 5 and the result is 247 with a remainder, one possible dividend is 1236.

The quotient of  a number is the number that is gotten when a number is divided by another number. For example, the quotient of 10 and 2 is 5.

An unknown number was divided by 5 and the result was 247 with a remainder. In order to determine the number the first step is to determine the product of 247 and 5.

247 x 5 = 1235

Since the number has a remainder, the number cannot be exactly 1235. The number would lie between 1235 and 1240. The numbers can be 1236, 1237, 1238 and 1239.

Fwd:The hardware store is having a 15% off sale on lawn mowers this weekend. If x is the original price of a lawn mower, what wi
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

<h3>(x - 0.15x) and x(1.00 - 0.15)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price of a lawn mower,

If the hardware store is having a 15% off sale on lawn mowers this weekend, the amount discounted is expressed as;

= 15 % of x

= 0.15 of x

= 0.15x

Final sales price = Original price - discounted price;

Final sales price = x - 0.15x

Factor out x;

x - 0.15x = x(1 - 0.15)

Hence the correct equations are (x - 0.15x)  and x(1.00 - 0.15)

german

Answer:

16 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

160+50x=1000

Solve for the x and you'll get 16.8. Now, because you can't have a fraction of a box, and you can't go over the limit, the answer is 16 boxes.

(How to solve for x:

Get x by itself by subtracting 160 to both sides.

50x=1000-160

50x=840

Divide both sides by 50.

x=16.8)
