Answer:

580

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's translate this word for word.

87 is 15% of what number

87 = 15% times x

87=.15 times x

87=.15 \cdot x

Divide both sides by .15

\frac{87}{.15}=\frac{.15x}{.15}

Cancel out the common factor of .15 on the right; that is .15/.15=1.

580=x

580 is the number

Answer:

580

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright. Translate that into math, and you get:

87=15/100x

multiply both sides by x

8700/15=x

x=8700/15

x=580

Check:

580*15/100

58*15/10

870/10

87

BINGO!

notka56 [123]
Consecutive even integers are 2 apart
they are
x,x+2,x+4
total sum is 60
x+x+2+x+4=60
3x+6=60
minus 6 both sides
3x=54
divide both sides by 3
x=18
x+2=20
x+4=22

the ages are
18,20,22

Point A is at (6,-6) and point C is at(-6,-2). find the coordinates of B on AC so that AB= 3/4AC.
loris [4]

Answer:

B(-6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find B such that ...

(B -A) = (3/4)(C -A) . . . . the required distance relation

4(B -A) = 3(C -A) . . . . . . multiply by 4

4B = 3C +A . . . . . . . . . . add 4A, simplify

Now, we can solve for B and substitute the given coordinates:

B = (3C +A)/4 = (3(-6, -2) +(-6, 6))/4 = (-24, 0)/4 = (-6, 0)

The coordinates of point B are (-6, 0).

Hope it helped u if yes mark me BRAINLIEST!
