So, this is a proportion problem. If we express 75% as a fraction (3/4ths), we have:
Since he won all of his games, we add the number won (x), to the number previously won and divide it by the total games played which is just the previous games played plus the number of current games played, so since he lost no games we still add x to the denominator as well. Solving this gives us:
That x value is 20.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is
y = mx + b
We need to find the slope, m, and the y-intercept, b.
The line we need is perpendicular to the line 2x + y = 8.
<em>The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.</em>
We solve the given equation for y to find the slope of the given line.
2x + y = 8
y = -2x + 8
The given line has slope -2.
The negative reciprocal of -2 is 1/2.
Our line has slope, m = 1/2.
Now we have
y = 1/2 x + b
Now we use the given point, (-2, 3), for x and y, using x = -2, and y = 3, and we solve for b.
y = 1/2 x + b
3 = 1/2 * (-2) + b
3 = -1 + b
4 = b
b = 4
Now we have
y = 1/2 x + 4
Answer:
Answer:
13,600
Step-by-step explanation:
(h = 7, l = 6, w = 2) 10
70, 60, 20
2(h × w) + 2(h × l) + 2(w × l)
= 2(70 × 20) + 2(70 × 60) + 2(20 × 60)
= 2(1400) + 2(4200) + 2(1200)
= 2800 + 8400 + 2400
= 13,600
