$\bf \begin{cases}
r=\textit{Richard's bookmarks amount}\\
R=\textit{Rose's bookmarks amount}\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
\stackrel{\textit{but we know their amount is the same}}{r=R}
\end{cases}~\hspace{5em}
\begin{array}{llll}
\stackrel{\textit{Richard gave away 28}}{r-28}\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{Rose threw away 16}}{R-16}
\end{array}
\\\\[-0.35em]
\rule{34em}{0.25pt}$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{after they got rid of those, the ratio r:R is 2:5}}{\cfrac{\textit{Richard new amount}}{\textit{Rose new amount}}\qquad \cfrac{r-28}{R-16}=\cfrac{2}{5}}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{since we know r=R}}{\cfrac{r-28}{r-16}=\cfrac{2}{5}}
\\\\[-0.35em]
~\dotfill\\\\
5(r-28)=2(r-16)\implies 5r-140=2r-32\implies 3r=108
\\\\\\
r=\cfrac{108}{3}\implies \blacktriangleright r=36=R \blacktriangleleft$

X divided by 6/7 = 3 and 2/5

Rom4ik [11]

X / 6/7 is 3 2/5. First, concert the numbers to decimals for simplicity sake, and you get x/.857 = 3.4. Multiply both sides by .857 to get x alone and you get x ≈ 2.9143

Answer:

Initial value is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the exponential function is $f(x) = a(b)^{x}$ ...... (1)

Now, the point $(0,\frac{1}{2})$ will satisfy the above equation.

Now, this point on the graph of the exponential function will be sufficient to find the initial value of the function (1) i.e. a.

Now, putting the value x = 0 and $y = \frac{1}{2}$ in the equation (1) we get, $f(x) = a(b)^{x}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{2} = a(b)^{0} = a$

⇒ $a = \frac{1}{2}$ (Answer)

For the following statement identifying the independent independent variable is the faster you drive your car the longer it will

EastWind [94]

Answer: Driving Speed

Step-by-step explanation:

The Independent variable is the one that is being experimented on to see the effect it will have on the dependent variable.

The Independent variable is adjusted to different levels to see if a relationship exists between these adjustments and a change in the dependent variable.

In this scenario the independent variable would be the speed you drive your car whilst time taken to completely stop is the dependent variable because the speed is the variable being adjusted to see the time taken to completely stop the car.
