A rectangle has an area of 72 in². The length and the width of the rectangle are changed by a scale factor of 3.5.

1 answer:

3 0

For this problem, it can be solved by forming two equations. The first equation is the area of the original rectangle. Let l be the length and w be the width. l x w = 72 will be 1st equation. Then, the 2nd equation is 3.5l * 3.5w = A. By substitution, the new area, A = 12.25( l x w) = 12.25 (72) = 882 in<span>².</span>

1. Last year a fishing license cost $52.00. This year the license will cost $46.80.

Talja [164]

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get the drop in value by deducting the price this year from last year's price.

Value decrease=$52.00-$46.80=$5.20

To express it as a percentage, we divide it by the original price which was $52.00 then multiply by 100 hence the percentage decrease will be

$\frac {5.20}{52.00}\times 100=10\ %$

Therefore, the price decreases by 10%

leroy earns $11.75 per hour working at a coffee shop. on friday, he spent 3 1/2 hours working at the counter, 2 1/2 hours at the

In-s [12.5K]

We can multiply Leroy's hourly wage by the total number of hours he worked. On Friday, Leroy spent a total of (3 1/2 + 2 1/2) hours = 6 hours working. If he earns $11.75 in 1 hour, multiplying this by 6 gives $70.50, so this is the total amount he earned on Friday.

BRAINLIESTTT ASAP!!! PLEASE HELP ME :)<br><br> Explain your answer please and show your steps/work.

algol [13]

Answer:

√x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify -3⁄6 to -½. Next, according to the Negative Exponential Rule, move the denominator to the numerator to get x¹\²:

bⁿ = 1\b⁻ⁿ

Then, according to the Definition of Rational Exponents [part I], rewrite this as a radical, which in this case would be √x. This is when your numerator is 1:

ⁿ√aᵐ = aᵐ\ⁿ
