Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n then half the number is \frac{1}{2} n, then

n + \frac{1}{2} n = 15

Multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction

2n + n = 30, that is

3n = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )

n = 10

Thus the number is 10

Answer: the number is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing number be p

From the question, p + 1/2p = 15

1 1/2p = 15

1 1/2p can be written as 3/2p

3/2p= 15

Divide both sides by 3/2

p = 15 ÷ 3/2 = 15 x 2/3

P= 30/3 = 10

If p is 10;

1/2p = 10/2 =5.

The number is 10.

I hope this helps.

your mother gave you 14.28 with which to buy a present. this covered 3/4 of the cost. how much did the present cost?
saul85 [17]

$19.04. If your mom gave you $14.28, and it only covered 3/4 of the cost, you have to first find 3/4 as a percentage, and then put it into a decimal. It would be 0.75. So then you have to divide 14.28÷0.75. It turns out to be $19.04.

A robot moving forward at a constant speed takes 2.5 hours to travel 1 kilometer. Moving forward at this same constant speed, it
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The length of the hallway is 10 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken to cover 1 km = 2.5 hours

Distance covered in 2.5 hours = 1 km

Therefore, speed of robot = \frac{\textrm{Distance}}{\textrm{TIme}}=\frac{1}{2.5}=0.4\ km/h

Now, speed is constant.

Now, time taken to cover the length of hallway = 90 s

Speed of the robot = 0.4 km/h

Converting 0.4 km/h to m/s, we multiply by the factor \frac{5}{18}. This gives,

0.4\times \frac{5}{18}=\frac{1}{9}\ m/s

Now, distance of the hallway is equal to the product of speed and time. So,

Distance of hallway = Speed \times Time

Distance of hallway = \frac{1}{9}\times 90=\frac{90}{9}=10\ m

Therefore, the length of the hallway is 10 m.
