Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
EXAMPLE #1:
What number is 75% of 4? (or Find 75% of 4.)
The PERCENT always goes over 100.
(It's a part of the whole 100%.)
4 appears with the word of:
It's the WHOLE and goes on the bottom.
A proportion showing one fraction with PART as the numerator and 4 as the denominator equal to another fraction with 75 as the numerator and 100 as the denominator.
We're trying to find the missing PART (on the top).
In a proportion the cross-products are equal: So 4 times 75 is equal to 100 times the PART.
The missing PART equals 4 times 75 divided by 100.
(Multiply the two opposite corners with numbers; then divide by the other number.)
4 times 75 = 100 times the part
300 = 100 times the part
300/100 = 100/100 times the part
3 = the part
A proportion showing the denominator, 4, times the diagonally opposite 75; divided by 100.
Answer:
the correct choice is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the smaller number. Then the larger number is 8x, and the difference is ...
8x -x = 280
7x = 280 . . . . . simplify
x = 40 . . . . . . divide by 7
The larger number is 8x = 8(40) = 320.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Effectively, we have solved for the multiplier (40) that gives the ratio with 320 on top and a difference between top and bottom of 280:
Answer: A: 3x^2y^(3/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be written as
(81*x^8*y^6)^(1/4)
Then multiply each exponent by (1/4):
81^(1/4)*x^(8(1/4))y^6(1/4))
81^(1/4) = 3
x^(8(1/4)) = x^2
y^6(1/4)) = y^(3/2)
The result: 3x^2y^(3/2)
Answer:
A. 144 degrees
B. 51 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
38*3+30
114+30=144
39 + x = 90
x = 51
Answer: 15 gallons of gas is required for a 705 miles trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of miles in a trip = 235 miles
Number of gallon of gas is needed = 5
We need to find the amount of gas required for 750 miles trip.
Since there is direct variation, as for increase in number of miles, amount of gas must be increased.
According to question, it becomes,
Hence, 15 gallons of gas is required for a 705 miles trip.
