Well think, 24= 8x4  right? So, 2 can go into 24 which=12 so lets divide.
24÷2= 12
12÷2=6
6÷2=3
3 is the smallest we can get so can 3 go into 24? yes, so 8 times 
so the smallest they can be are 8*3 and you cant reduce 8 anymore because of the three once one gets the smallest they both do. hope this helped.

A hat is marked down 45% and its new price is $69. What was the original price rounded to the nearest cent?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

$106.95

Step-by-step explanation:

45% = 0.45

1.00 - 0.45 = 0.55

$69 x 0.55 = 37.95

$69 + 37.95 = $106.95

Answer:

1. KLP + PLM = 180 degrees (straight line)

2. 3x + angle PLM = 180 degrees

3. angle PLM = 180 - 3x

4. PMN = P + PLM (Exterior angle)

5. 2x + 72 = x + 180 - 3x

6. x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Notice that angle KLP + angle PLM is a straight line, so KLP + PLM = 180 degrees (straight line)

2. angle KLP = 3x, so

3x + angle PLM = 180 degrees

3. angle PLM = 180 - 3x

4. PMN = P + PLM (Exterior angle)

5. 2x + 72 = x + 180 - 3x

6. 5 gives 4x = 108, so x = 27

One of the main contaminants of a nuclear accident, such as that at Chernobyl, is strontium-90, which decays exponentially at a
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: P=0.975^t


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the general form of the exponential decay formula is


y=A(1-r)^t, where y is final amount remaining after t time, A is the original amount and r is the rate of decay


Now, the ratio of strontium-90 remaining, p , as a function of years, t , since the nuclear accident. P=\frac{A(1-0.02)^t}{A}=\frac{(0.975)^t}{1}

Hence, the ratio of remaining since the nuclear accident is P=0.975^t

What is the difference? x+5/x+2-x+1/x2+2x
Mrac [35]

Question

x+5/x+2 - x+1/x²+2x

Answer:

= (x² - 4x - 1)/[x (x+2)]

= (x² - 4x - 1)/[x² + 2x]

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 5/x + 2 - x + 1/x² + 2x

We factorise the second denominator to give us :

x + 5/x + 2 - x + 1/x(x + 2)

We find the L.C.M of both denominators which is x(x+2).

[x(x + 5)-(x + 1)] / (x (x + 2))

Expand the bracket

=[x² +5x - x -1] / [x (x + 2)]

=(x² - 4x - 1) / [x (x + 2)]

= (x² - 4x - 1)/ [x (x + 2)]

= (x² - 4x - 1) / [x² + 2x]
