Have a great day! :)
3.0 x 10^8 km/s is how far light travels.
3.0 x 10^8 km/s x 60s is how far light travels in a minute
3.0 x 10^8 x 60 x 5 is how far light travels in 5 minutes, and you should get D as your answer.
Your diagram doesn't clearly define what values correspond to what, can you explain.
15,17,19
Suppose the three odd integers are #n#, #n+2# and #n+4#
Their sum is:
#n + (n+2) + (n+4) = 3n+6#
#13# more than twice the largest of the three is:
#2(n+4)+13 = 2n+21#
From what we are told these two are equal:
#3n+6 = 2n+21#
Subtract #2n+6# from both sides to get:
#n = 15#
So the three integers are:
#15, 17, 19#
I'll do the first two problems to get you started. All problems shown will use the same formula.
===========================================
Problem 4
The formula to use is
C = 100*(B-A)/A
where
A = old value
B = new value
C = percent change
In this case, A = 12 and B = 36, so
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(36-12)/12
C = 100*(24/12)
C = 100*2
C = 200%
We have a 200% increase. It is an increase because the value of C is positive.
===========================================
Problem 5
Use the same formula as in the previous problem. This time,
A = 75 is the old value
B = 25 is the new value
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(25-75)/75
C = 100*(-50/75)
C = 100*(-2/3)
C = -66.6667%
C = -66.7%
The value of C is negative, so we have a percent decrease of roughly 66.7%
