Rename 2/5 as a percent_______________________

Mathematics
1 answer:
loris [4]3 years ago
7 0

It can be helpful to remember that "%" is just a shorthand way to write "/100" (divided by 100, or per 100, or per cent). ("Cent" is often used to refer to 100 or 1/100. A "cent" is 1/100 of a dollar, or 1/100 of an acre, for example. A <em>cent</em>ury is 100 years.)

Make the denominator of your fraction be 100. Multiply numerator and denominator by 20/20.

(2/5)×(20/20) = 40/100 = 40%

You can also get there via decimals.

... 2/5 = 0.4 = 0.40 (40 hundredths) = 40/100 (40 hundredths) = 40%

Or, you can multiply by 100%.

... (2/5)×(100%) = (200/5)% = 40%

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 3) and (5, –2)?
Sergeu [11.5K]

m=-(5/4)

From left to right, (1,3) is first and then comes (5,-2). Always remember when finding slopes without equations, the rule is RISE over RUN, to the numerator and denominator, respectively.

The y value of the second coordinates becomes negative which is unlike the y value in the first coordinates, which means our slope is downward, meaning it has a negative sign in front.

In every slope, there’s a numerator, being the rise, and a denominator, being the run.

To find the rise, we must look at the y values. Starting at 3 going to -2 has a space of 5 units, making that our numerator.

To find the run, the first x value is 1 and the second is 5, making a space of 4, which is out denominator.

With these two numbers and the negative sign, we get -(5/4) as our slope.

What is the equation used to find the nth term of the arithmetic sequence: -9, -4 1, 6, 11...
elena-s [515]

Answer:

a^n=-9+(n-1).5

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence=a+(n-1)d

a=-9

n=?

d=+5

Arithmetic sequence=-9+(n-1)5

=-9+5n-5

Collect like terms

-9-5+5n

-14+5n

So the final answer is

an=-9+(n-1).5
