Mathematics

Answer:

62.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of animals in a group= 5+3=8 animals

Number of rays=5

Since we only have 5 rays out of the total 8, to express the number of rays as a percentage of the total animals, we divide the number of rays by the total animals then multiply by 100 to express in percentage as needed in the question

Percentage of rays=\frac {5}{8}\times 100=62.5

Therefore, the percentage is 62.5%

Required equation in slope intercept form is: y=5x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let m denote the slope of line

m = 5

the line passes though (1,9)

Slope-intercept form of equation of line is:

y= mx+b

Putting m=5 in the equation

y = 5x+b

Putting (1,9) in the equation

9 = 5(1) +b\\9 = 5+b\\b = 9-5\\b = 4

Putting the value of b

y = 5x+4

Hence,

Required equation in slope intercept form is: y=5x+4

Keywords: Equation, linear equation

Answer:

16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that x is the original width. If that original width is enlarged by a scale factor 5/2 that means that x is multiplied by 5/2 and after that multiplication we obtained new width, 40 cm.

Therefore,

x*(5/2) = 40

We multiply the equation by 2 and obtain:

x*5 = 40*2

5x = 80

Now we divide the equation by 5 and obtain:

x = 80/5

x = 16

We obtained that x, the original width was 16 cm
