1.14 per 100 or 1.14:100 or \frac{1.14}{100}

\frac{1.14}{100} =  \frac{n}{2000}

I will multiply the numerator by 20 because multiplying by 20 is how 100 became 2000
22.8 cases are rejected per hour.

Scott likes to run long distances. He can run 20 \text{ km}20 km20, start text, space, k, m, end text in 858585 minutes. He want
spayn [35]

Given:

Scott can run 20 km in 85 minutes.

To find:

How long will it take Scott to run 52 km?

Solution:

Let x be the number of minutes it will take him to run 52 km.

We know that,

Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}

Using this formula, we get

Speed=\dfrac{20}{85}           ...(i)

Speed=\dfrac{52}{x}             ...(ii)

Equating (i) and (ii), we get

\dfrac{20}{85}=\dfrac{52}{x}

20\times x=52\times 85

20x=4420

Divide both sides by 20.

x=\dfrac{4420}{20}

x=221

Therefore, it will take 221 minutes to run 52 km.

17 3/4 - 2/5x = 4 1/2
-2/5x = 4 1/2 - 17 3/4
-2/5x = 9/2 - 71/4
-2/5x = 18/4 - 71/4
-2/5x = - 53/4
x = (-53/4) / (-2/5)
x = -53/4 * - 5/2
x = 265/8
x = 33 1/8 bottles

Evaluate the sum or explain why it diverges: Sigma^infinity_k = 3(-3/2)^k
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that in the geometric serie if | r | < 1 the serie converges and if | r | ≥1 the serie diverges.

I suppose that the serie starts at 0, so using the geometric serie with r = | \frac{-3}{2} | > 1 the serie diverges.
