Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are looking for the amount of shirts he had you will need to divide 25 by .10 or just multiply by 10.

Set up an equal proprtion. 25/x = 10/100 because 25 is 10% of the number you're looking for, or x. 25* 100 = 10x → 2500 = 10x → 250 = x. Uncle Percy started with 250 t-shirts.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

x=2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x+1)/2 = 2 1/3/4

Multiply 4 on both sides:

2x+1=2 1/3

Rewrite:

2x+1=7/3

Subtract 1 on both sides:

2x=4/3

Divide 2 on both sides:

x=2/3

Thus x=2/3

Hope this helps!

The value of x varies directly with y, and when x=1/3,y=5

pickupchik [31]

Answer: y = 36x

Step-by-step explanation: Given that x and y vary directly then the equation relating the is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition x = , y = 12, then

k = = = 12 × 3 = 36

y = 36x ← equation of variation

Write a polynomial functionſ of least degree that has rational coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and the zeros 1,3, and

otez555 [7]

Answer:

f(x) = $x^{4} - 8x^{3} + 24x^{2} - 32x + 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, if 2 - i is a zero, then so is 2 + i

All you need to do now is multiply (x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 2 + i)(x - 2 - i)

I will do part of that multiplication

(x - 2 + i)(x - 2 - i) = $x^{2}$ - 2x - xi - 2x + 4 + 2i + xi - 2i - $i^{2}$

= $x^{2}$ - 4x + 5

So, now (x - 1)(x - 3)( $x^{2}$ - 4x + 5) = $x^{4} - 8x^{3} + 24x^{2} - 32x + 15$

I will let you finish that multiplication. I did some and you can do some. OK?
