To determine the percentage of how much she successfully made, let's make a proportion.
We have 17/25 shots made. To have the proportion, let's put x/100, x being the percentage of shots she has successfully made.
Our proportions are 17/25 : x/100
Compare the denominators.
25 and 100, so multiply the numerator by 4 to get the percentage.
17 x 4 = 68. She made 68% of the shots successfully.
If you do not like this method, let's use a different one.
Cross multiply the denominators of each fraction by the numerators of the opposite fraction.
100 x 17, 25 times x.
1700/25x is now our new fraction, so divide both numbers by 25.
1700/25= 68.
x=68.
I hope this helps!

What is the value of p?
Sati [7]

Answer:

p = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to subtract by the number 18p from each of your sides

Like: 10p + 5 - 18p

= 18p -3 -180

This gives us: -8p + 5 = -3

Nextly, we have to subtract by 5 on each of your sides

Like: -8p + 5 - 5

= -3 - 5

This gives us: -8p = -8

Now we have divide by the -8 on each of your sides:

Like: -8p ÷ -8

= -8 ÷ -8

Answer: p = 1

Explain how the statement "there is 3/4 cup per serving" represents a rate.
Aleonysh [2.5K]
There is 3/4 cup of whatever in one serving. If that serving amount changed to 2, then the 3/4 would be multiplied by 2. If there is half a serving, then it would be divided by 2. There is a constant change, and not one that is always changing.

What is w(53)is equal to
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is slightly ambiguous. The problem is, do you find the first 40 hours using 10x and then the second equation using x >40. I don't think so, but it should be made clear. It turns out that the first 40 hours does equal 400 so that you can use the second expression with no worries.

w(53) = 15(53 - 40) + 400

w(53) = 15(13) + 400

w(53) = 195 + 400

w(53) = 595
