Two consecutive natural numbers would be 1 and 2, or 5 and 6, for example.

If the first number is n and the second number is n+1, then you are writing $n+(n+1)=2n+1$ .

Explain why any rotation can be described by an angle between 0 degrees and 360 degrees

Oksanka [162]

Because if you rotate an object 360 degrees it’s like the object never moved because the object would still be in the same spot as if you didn’t move it

In May Mr. Lee's earings were 60 percent of the Lee family's total income. In June Mr. Lee earned 20 percent more than in May. I

murzikaleks [220]

Answer: 64.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total earnings of the Lee family in May be x

Amount earned by Mr Lee in May = 60% of x = 0.6x

Amount earned by other family members in May = x - 0.6x (total earnings - Mr Lee's earnings) = 0.4x

Amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 20% more than what Mr Lee earned in May.

That is, amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 1.2 × 0.6x = 0.72x

Amount earned by other members of the family in June remains unchanged, that is = 0.4x

Total amount earned by the Lee family in June = 0.72x + 0.4x = 1.12x

Percentage of total earnings in June earned by Mr. Lee = (0.72x/1.12x) × 100% = 64.29%.

Fiona wrote the linear equation y = 2/5 X -5. When Henry wrote his equation they discovered that his equation had all the same S

REY [17]

The equation of the graph is given as y = (2/5)x - 5.

You have to figure out which of the choices equals the equation given,
y = (2/5)x - 5.
You could solve each of the answer choices for y, but since each choice is in the format x - (m)y = b, you can put the given equation in that format too.

$y= \frac{2}{5}x - 5 \\ 
5= \frac{2}{5}x-y \\ 
 \frac{2}{5}x - y = 5 \\ 
 (\frac{5}{2}) \frac{2}{5}x - (\frac{5}{2})y = (\frac{5}{2})5 \\ 
x - (\frac{5}{2})y = \frac{25}{2}$
