Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we call the number X

x/5 is the fifth part of that number

I propose equality:

x + x/5 = 17

we add the fractions on the left side:

6x/5 = 17

We pass 5 to multiply to the other side:

6x = 5 * 17

6x = 85

we clear x

x = 85/6

x = 14.17

test

14.17 + 2.83 = 17

okay

Answer:

14.1666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation as:

x + x/5 = 17

=> 5/5x + 1/5x = 17

=> 6/5x = 17

=> 6x = 17 * 5

=> 6x = 85

=> x = 85/6

=> x = 14.1666666667

Let's check whether our answer is correct

=> 14.1666666667 + 14.1666666667 / 5 = 17

=> 14.1666666667 +  2.83333333333 = 17

=> 17 = 17

So, the answer is 14.1666666667

Triangle JKL has vertices J(−2, 2) , K(−3, −4) , and L(1, −2) . Write the coordinate notation for a translation of 8 units right
Dovator [93]
Triangle JKL has vertices J(−2, 2) , K(−3, −4) , and L(1, −2) .

Rule: (x, y)→(x + 8, y + 1 )

J’ (-2, 2) → (-2 + 8, 2 + 1 ) → (6, 3 )
K’ (-3, -4) → (-3 + 8, -4 + 1 ) → (5, -3 )
L’ (1, -2) → (1 + 8, -2 + 1 ) → (9, -1)


J’ (6,3)
K’ (5,-3)
L’ (9,-1)


Hope this helps!

Lynn plotted point G, 3 units to the left and 2 units above point F . Where did Lynn plot point G ?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

(2, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point G has a coordinate of x = 5, and y = 4, that is (5, 4).

If Lynn plots point G, such that:

G is 3 units to the left of point F, the x-coordinate of point G = 5 - 3 = 2

G is 2 units above point F, the y-coordinate of point G = 4 + 2 = 6.

Therefore, Lynn plotted point G at x = 2, and y = 6. Which is (2, 6)

Help needed I need the answer with work shown for the graphs
andreyandreev [35.5K]

top left: speed = 2.7 miles per hour  = 2.7 MPH

top right: speed = 0 miles per hour  = 0 MPH

bottom left: speed = 4 miles per hour  = 4 mi/h

bottom right: speed = 2 miles per hour  = 2 mi/h

and so, the fastest is bottom left. And pay attention in class! i'm in highschool and Iearned this in 6th grade!

Step-by-step explanation:

key: speed= distance/time

distance= speedxtime

time=distance/speed

top left: 8/3= 2.66667 MPH= 2.7 MPH

top right: 0/8= 0 MPH= 0 MPH

bottom left: 8/2= 4 MPH= 4 MPH

bottom right: 8/4= 2 MPH= 2 MPH

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

$8.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The final price of the coat = $45 -0.2 * $45 = $36

The final price of the suit = $95 − 0.3 * $95 = $66.5

sarosh's commission = 0.08 * ( $36 + $66 ) = $8.2
