What percent of 80 is 25

1 answer:

JulsSmile [24]3 years ago

8 0

Answer: 31.25%

Step-by-step explanation: To answer the question <em>what percent of 80 is 25</em>, we translate the question into an equation.

So we have "what percent" that's x, "of 80" means times 80, "is 25" = 25.

Now to solve for <em>x</em>, since <em>x</em> is being multiplied by 80, we need to divide by 80 on both sides of the equation. On the left side of the equation the 80's cancel and we have <em>x</em> and on the right side of the equation, we have 25 ÷ 80 which gives us 0<em>.</em>3125. Now, remember that we want to right our answer as a percent so to write 0.3125 as a percent, we move the decimal point 2 places to the right and we get 31.25%.

Therefore, 31.25% of 80 is 25.

Y=mx+b is used for what math equation

soldier1979 [14.2K]

y = m x + b is a linear equation.
This equation is in the slope - intercept form, where m is the slope and b is y - intercept.
For example: y = 2 x + 5
In this equation: m = 2 ( the slope ) and b = 5 ( the line intercepts y-axis at the point ( 0, 5 ) ).

Find the equation of the line The line has a slope of 1.3 and passes through the point (-2.3, -3.2)

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

y=1.3 x - 0.21

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = (slope) \times x + (constant)$

set (-2.3,-3.2) in above

$- 3.2 = 1.3 \times ( - 2.3) + c$

then c=-0.21

Find the volume of the cone. Use 3.14 for π. Round to the nearest tenth.

Leviafan [203]

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cone=1527.1\,\,cm^3$

So, Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find Volume of cone.

We are given:

π = 3.14

Length = 27 cm

Diameter = 15 cm

The formula used to find Volume of cone is:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cone=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

We are given diameter but we need radius in the formula

So, Radius = Diameter/2 = 15/2 = 7.5 cm

We need to find height of cone.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

$h^2=p^2+b^2\\ (27)^2=p^2+(7.5)^2\\729=p^2+56.25\\p^2=729-56.25\\p^2=672.75\\Taking\,\,square\,\,root:\\p=25.93$

So, Height of cone = p= 25.93

So, r= 7.5 and h= 25.93 and π = 3.14

Putting values in the formula:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cone=\frac{1}{3}3.14*(7.5)^2*25.93$

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cone=1526.62$

Rounding off to the nearest tenth:

$Volume\,\,of\,\,cone=1527.1\,\,cm^3$

So, Option C is correct.

the zero of the quadratic polynomial x^2+99x+127 are a both positive b both negative c one +ve one-ve d both equal. please help

Paha777 [63]

Step-by-step explanation:

By Descrates' Rule of Signs,

x² + 99x + 127 changes sign 0 times.

Hence it has 0 positive roots.

Since the discriminant b² - 4ac is also positive, there are 2 real distinct roots.

Hence both the roots are negative. (B)

The elephants at the zoo eat 3 2/3 buckets of bananas each day. The zookeeper bought 7 1/3 buckets of bananas. How many days wil

uranmaximum [27]

Answer: 2 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The monkeys eat 3 ²/₃ buckets of bananas each day. Convert this to an improper fraction:

= 3²/₃ = 11/3 buckets per day

The zookeeper bought 7¹/₃ which is:

= 22/3 buckets

To find out the number of days the bananas will last, divide the buckets bought by the buckets eaten per day:

= 22/3 ÷ 11/3

= 22/3 * 3/11

= 66/33

= 2 days

<em>If dividing fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. </em>
