Answer:

12 hits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hits needed

1 hit equals an at-bat.

(45+x)hits / (130+x)at-bats = 0.4

(45+x) = 0.4(130+x)

45 + x = 52 + 0.4x

45 - 52 = 0.4x - x

-7 = -0.6x

x = -7/-0.6

x = 11.667

x = 12(approximately)

12 hits are necessary since there are no fraction of hits

Find the value of x.<br> A. About 57.6<br> B. About 42.6<br> C. About 12.6<br> D. About 27.6
nordsb [41]

Answer:

about 27.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles for this rectangle is 1080

119+140+124+6x+132+132+102 = 1080 add like terms

749 + 12x = 1080 subtract 749 from both sides

12x = 331 divide both sides by 12

x = 27.6 approximately

Icated (Q#1-4).<br> 2. Solve by substitution; x+3y + 4)<br> 3x - 5y = 8<br> 3 (3x+4)<br> aytla
puteri [66]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming your system is:

x + 3y = 4

3x - 5y = 8

Then make x the subject in the first equation to get:

x = 4 - 3y

Put this equation into the second equation to get:

3(4 - 3y) - 5y = 8

12 - 9y - 5y = 8

- 9y - 5y = 8 - 12

-14y =  - 4

y =   \frac{ - 4}{ - 14}  =  \frac{2}{7}

This means that:

x = 4 - 3 \times  \frac{2}{7}

x = 4 -  \frac{6}{7}  =  \frac{22}{7}
