Answer:

Because 20 has to be doubled to become 40. While 40 is twice as much as 20 so you just divide 40 by 20 to get 50%.

Explanation:

20 x 20 = 40 = 100%

40 / 20 = 50%

For the equation y= x + 5, find the value of y when
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) 3 b) 5 c) 7 d) 9

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, you want to replace x in the equation y=x+5 with each of the values listed.

For the first one, -2, the equation becomes y=-2+5, which is solved to y=3.

For the second one, 0, the equation becomes y=0+5, which is solved to y=5.

For the third one, 2, the equation becomes y=2+5, which is solved to y=7.

For the last one, 4, the equation becomes y=4+5, which is solved to y=9.

**This content involves solving algebraic equations with a known variable, which you may wish to revise. I'm always happy to help!

Number ten please thanks
BlackZzzverrR [31]
-3^2= -(3)^2

The exponent of 2 only applies to the number 3. -(3)^2 should equal -9. This is true because according to the order of operations, exponents should be evaluated before multiplication. The negative sign here represents -1* 3^2.
If you want to find -3 to the power of 2 it must be written (-3)^2.

Please help!!!! i am despite, i will mark brainlyest
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

x=12

10x = 120

5x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

paralellograms will become 360 degrees

so 2(5x) +2(10x)= 360

Simplify:

10x + 20x = 360

= 30x

divide both sides by 30 and isolate

<u>30x </u> = <u>360</u>

30        30

x=12

multiply 12 by 10x and 5x

10x = 120

5x = 60
