1. 78 = 0.15x
78 / 0.15 = x
520 = x.....so 78 is 15% of 520
2. | 3x - 2 | = 8 | x + 1 | = 1
3x - 2 = 8 -(3x - 2) = 8 x + 1 = 1 -(x + 1) = 1
3x = 8 + 2 -3x + 2 = 8 x = 1 - 1 -x - 1 = 1
3x = 10 -3x = 6 x = 0 -x = 2
x = 10/3 x = -2 x = -2
ur answer is : x = -2
3. 3y - 4x + 5 = 0
3y = 4x - 5
y = 4/3x - 5/3
slope = 4/3
The answer is twelve because to Make the two fractions denominators equal you have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 4 to get the denominators equal which gets you a fraction of 12/16 and if you divide that by 1/16 because that is how long each lap is then you get 16 which is the amount of laps they swam
Answer: shameeka sold 20 hamsters to the store.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hamsters that shameeka sold to the store.
Let y represent the number of hamsters that the pet store had initially.
Shameeka sold her hamsters to a pet store. This doubled the number of hamsters in the store. It means that
x + y = 2y
x = 2y - y
x = y
Then the store got six more hamsters. If the pet store has 46 hamsters now, it means that
2y + 6 = 46
2y = 46 - 6
2y = 40
y = 40/2
y = 20
Since x = y, then
x = 20
Answer:
D) (x - 2)(x² - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Separate the polynomial into two groups of two terms and factor out the common value from each group. If the values factored out from each group are the same, then you can use the grouping method. The factors will be the outside terms and the common factor.
x³ - 2x² + -8x + 16
= x²(x - 2) + -8(x - 2)
= (x² - 8)(x - 2)
Multiply 4&8, that makes 32 then add the numerator which is 7. 32+7=39, the improper fraction is 39/8. Hope this helps. If you need more info look online
