If y = kx, what is the value of k if y = 20 and x = 0.4? A) 5 B) 8 C) 9.6 D) 50

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: D, 50
y = kx <span>y = 20 and x = 0.4
</span>
What you will do: You will plug in your y and your x.
Your equation should look like: 20=k(0.4)
Next: What you will do is divide each side of your equal sign by 0.4 so you will get your k alone.
You would get: k=50

HOPE THIS HELPS! ^_^

What is 89/100 as a percent?

masya89 [10]

89/100 as a precent is is 89% because if you change 89/100 to a decimal you get .89 and then you multiply that by 100 (or just move the decimal over 2 places to the right) and you will get 89% make since? and its the same way if your going from % to decimal except you divide by 100( or move the decimal over 2 places to the left) so to a percent is right and to a decimal is left. easy right?

barxatty [35]

Answer:

Restating the question clearly:

Ben drinks tea at an incredible rate. He drinks 3 1/2 liters of tea every 2/3 of an hour. How much does he drink in one hour?

Answer:

He drinks $5\frac{1}{4}\ liters\$ in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

$Rate\ of\ drinking\ =\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ per\ \frac{2}{3}\ of\ an\ hour\\$ $\therefore\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ is\ consumed\ in\ \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\\frac{7}{2} \ liters = \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\cross-multiplying\\7 \times 3\ liters = 2 \times 2\ hours\\21\ liters = 4\ hours\\4\ hours\ = 21\ liters\\\therefore\ for\ 1\ hour\\\frac{4}{4}\ hours = \frac{21}{4}\ liters\\1\ hour = 5.25\ liters\\5.25\ liters = 5\frac{1}{4}\ liters$

The sum of two numbers is 110.The larger number is 2 less than 7 times the smaller.Find the Large number

natima [27]

Answer:

The larger number is 96.

Step-by-step explanation:

$let \: the \: two \: numbers \: be \: a \: and \: b \\ a + b = 110 \\ let \: a \: be \: the \: larger \: number \\ a = 7b - 2 \\ we \: can \: get \: the \: value \: of \: b \: by \: substituting \: the \: value \: above \: for \: a \: in \: eq \: 1 \\ 7b - 2 + b = 110 \\ 8b - 2 = 110 \\ 8b = 110 + 2 \\ 8b = 112 \\ b = \frac{112}{8} \\b = 14\\ calculate \:the \: value \: of \: a \: using \: the \: equation \: above \\ a + b = 110 \\ a = 110 - 14 \\ a = 96 \\ hence \: the \: large \: number \: is \: 96$
