200 dollars is equivalent to 40%
So what is 100% equivalent to;
Rent payment= $\frac{100*200}{40}$
= 500 dollars

Solve for w: 2w<9+5w

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

w > -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2w<9+5w

Subtract 5w from each side

2w-5w<9+5w-5w

-3w <9

Divide each side by -3 remembering to flip the inequality

-3w/-3 > 9/-3

w > -3

The perimeter of a stop sign has a perimeter of 16x2 - 80x. What is the length of one side?

uranmaximum [27]

Since a stop sign is an octagon it has eight sides. So the perimeter will be:

p=8x, p=perimeter and x=side length. We are told that the perimeter is equal to:

16x^2-80x so we can say:

16x^2-80x=8x subtract 8x from both sides

16x^2-88x=0 factor out 8x

8x(2x-11), since we know x>0

x=11/2

x=5.5 units

1.A five - layer of cake weighs half a kilogram per layer.In each layer,the cake is decorated with icing which weighs 15g.3 cand

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: 2.815 kilograms

======================================================

Work Shown:

1 layer = 0.5 kg

5 layers = 5*(0.5 kg) = 2.5 kg

icing = 15 g = 15/1000 = 0.015 kg

1 candle = 100 g = 100/1000 = 0.1 kg

3 candles = 3*(0.1 kg) = 0.3 kg

------------------------

The five layers combine to 2.5 kg. On top of that we have 0.015 kg of icing, and then finally the three candles add 0.3 kg more weight.

The total weight is therefore: 2.5+0.015+0.3 = 2.815 kilograms

The exponential function y= a(b)^x passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10). Which of the following is closest to the value o

Yuki888 [10]

If the exponential function $y=ab^x$ passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

The given exponential equation is:

$y=ab^x$

The function passes through the points (3, 25) and (8, 10)

Substitute x = 3 and y = 25 into the function $y=ab^x$

$25=ab^3$ ............................(1)

Substitute x = 8 and y = 10 into the function $y=ab^x$

$10=ab^8$ .............................(2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1)

$\frac{10}{25}=\frac{ab^8}{ab^3} \\\\0.4=b^5\\\\b=0.4^\frac{1}{5} \\\\b=0.4^{0.2}\\\\b=0.833$

Therefore, if the exponential function $y=ab^x$ passes through the points (3,25) and (8,10), the value of b is 0.833

Beth baked chocolate chip cookies, she gave 8 cookies to madex and half of the remaining cookies to John and Joanne. If there we

kenny6666 [7]

20 cookies because y = 8 + 6(x)

X = 2 since half of the cookies left was 6

6(2) = 12 and 12+8 = 20

So in total she baked 20cookies
