Mathematics

The track increased 400m:


1600 - 1200 = 400



Use the rule of 3:


1200 - 100%

400 - x


(400 * 100) / 1200 = x

40 000 / 1200 = x

33,33... = x


The increase was of 33% aproximately.




Hope it helped,


Happy homework/ study/ exam!

I have 120 cm of framing material to make a picture frame, which will be most pleasing to the eye if its height is 2/3 of its wi
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

 

The formula for perimeter is:

<span>P = 2 h +  2 w</span>

where P is perimeter = 120 cm, h is height, w is width

we are also given that: h = (2/3) w, therefore:

P = 2 (2/3) w + 2 w = 120

(4/3) w + 2 w = 120

w = 36 cm

 

Therefore l is:

l = (2/3) w = 24 cm

 

<span>Hence the dimension should be 24cm by 36 cm</span>

A bike and skate shop rents bike for $21 per day and pairs of skates for $20 per day. To remain viable, the shop needs to make a
Leya [2.2K]
Let the number of bike be x and the number of skates be y, then
21x + 20y ≥ 362 . . . (1)
2y = x . . . (2)

Putting (2) into (1), then
21(2y) + 20y ≥ 362
42y + 20y ≥ 362
62y ≥ 362
y ≥ 5.84

The least number of pairs of skates they need to rent each day to make their minimum is 6.

Graph each line using intercepts 1/4 x + 2y =2
Leno4ka [110]

The given equation is,

\frac{1}{4}x+2y=2

It can be rewritten in the form of y=mx+c, where c is the y intercept.

Hence,

\begin{gathered} 2y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2 \\ y=\frac{-1}{4\times2}x+\frac{2}{2} \\ y=\frac{-1}{8}x+1 \end{gathered}

Put different values for x and find value of y.

When x=0, y=1.

When x=1,

y=\frac{-1}{8}+1=\frac{7}{8}

The graph is,
