Well please re post the complete question as i can not see the expression over here. How ever, A wild guess is 15% of x + x should be equal to F. Where x is the figurines owned the previous year.

Answer:  F / 0.15 = 100F / 15 = 20F / 3 ≈ 6.67F.


Explanation:


1) The three expresssions,  F / 0.15;  15 F / 100; 3F / 20; are equivalent.


2) The number of figurines Kat owned last year may be expressed in terms of the number the of figurines purchased, F, this year, and the 15%, following this procedure:


  • Call n the amount of figurines owned last year.
  • F is the number of figurines purchased: F  = 15%n = 0,15n
  • Hence, you just need to clear F from the expression F = 0.15n
  • Divide both sides by 0.15:

        F / 0.15 = n or n = F / 0.15 (reflexive property)

  • To prove the equialavence of the other expresssions you just have to use the properties of multiplication or division:

       (F / 0.15) × (100 / 100) = 100F / 15

        100F / 15 = (100/5)F / (15/5) = 20F / 3 ≈ 6.67F

Is 18 a polynomial? Explain your reasoning
Daniel [21]

Answer:

yes, 18 is a polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to show whether 18 is a polynomial or not

Polynomial is an expression involving variables and constants such that variables having non negative integer power.

Example 2x^4, 3y^3 etc,

Thus, yes 18 is a polynomial

as 18 can be written as 18x^0 where x^0=1 and 0 is non negative integer,

Thus, yes 18 is a polynomial as it can be written as 18x^0  having non negative integer power 0.

Point A is located at (5, 10) and point B is located at (20, 25).
Alla [95]
Let's say the point is C, so C partitions AB into two pieces, where AC is at a ratio of 3 and CB is at  a ratio of 7, thus 3:7,

\bf \left. \qquad  \right.\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(5,10)\qquad B(20,25)\qquad
\qquad 3:7
\\\\\\
\cfrac{AC}{CB} = \cfrac{3}{7}\implies \cfrac{A}{B} = \cfrac{3}{7}\implies 7A=3B\implies 7(5,10)=3(20,25)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
{ C=\left(\cfrac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)}\\\
-------------------------------

\bf C=\left(\cfrac{(7\cdot 5)+(3\cdot 20)}{3+7}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(7\cdot 10)+(3\cdot 25)}{3+7}\right)
\\\\\\
C=\left( \cfrac{35+60}{10}~~,~~\cfrac{70+75}{10} \right)\implies C=\left(\cfrac{95}{10}~~,~~\cfrac{145}{10}  \right)
\\\\\\
C=\left( \cfrac{19}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{29}{2} \right)\implies C=\left( 9\frac{1}{2}~~,~~14\frac{1}{2}  \right)
