Answer: Original price $184

Step-by-step explanation:

(X/2) - 6 = 86

X/2 = 86+6

X/2 = 92

X = 92*2

X = 184

Punctele O, A, B, C sunt coliniare în această ordine, iar segmentele OA, AB și BC au lungimile exprimate în cm, prin numere natu

julia-pushkina [17]

Răspuns:

a) OC = 18cm

b) MN = 6cm

Explicație pas cu pas:

Găsiți diagrama la întrebarea atașată.

a) Din diagramă se poate observa că OC = OA + AB + AC

OC = 2n + 2n + 2 + 2n + 4

OC = 6n + 6

Următorul este să obțineți valoarea lui n:

OM = OA + AM

Să obținem segmentul AM;

Deoarece M este segmentul mijlociu al AC, atunci;

AM = AC / 2

AM = AB + BC / 2

AM = 2n + 2 + 2n + 4/2

AM = 4n + 6/2

AM = 2n + 3

Din moment ce OM = OA + AM

OM = 2n + 2n + 3

OM = 4n + 3

Dat fiind OM = 11

11 = 4n + 3

4n = 11-3

4n = 8

n = 2

Următorul pas este să calculați OC;

OC = 6n + 6

OC = 6 (2) + 6

OC = 18

Prin urmare, lungimea segmentului OC este de 18 cm

b) Această întrebare ne cere să găsim segmentul de linie MN.

Din diagramă, MN = AM - AN

Deoarece AM = 2n + 3 din întrebarea 1;

AM = 2 (2) +3

AM = 4 + 3

AM = 7

Acum, să obținem AN:

Din diagramă, AN = ON-OA și ON = OB / 2

AN = OB / 2 - OA

AN = (2n + 2n + 2) / 2 - 2n

AN = 4n + 2/2 - 2n

AN = 2n + 1 - 2n

AN = 2n-2n + 1

AN = 1

De la MN = AM - AN

MN = 7 - 1

MN = 6cm

Prin urmare, distanța dintre N, mijlocul segmentului OB și punctul M este de 6cm

Mia removes the plug from a trough to drain the water. The volume, in gallons, in the trough after it has been unplugged can be

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

The correct option is D) (5x − 2)(2x − 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression.

$10x^2-19x+6$

Where x is time in minutes.

We need to find the appropriate form of the expression that would reveal the time in minutes when the trough is empty.

When the trough is empty the whole expression becomes equal to 0.

Substitute the whole expression equal to 0 and solve for x that will gives us the required expression.

$10x^2-19x+6=0$

$10x^2-15x-4x+6=0$

$5x(2x-3)-2(2x-3)=0$

$(5x-2)(2x-3)=0$

Now consider the provided option.

By comparison the required expression is D) (5x − 2)(2x − 3).

Hence, the correct option is D) (5x − 2)(2x − 3).

How many times smaller is 2 × 10^-10 than 4 × 10^-5

natta225 [31]

Answer:

200,000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times smaller is smaller number than greater number, divide greater number by smaller number.

Greater number $=4\times 10^{-5}$

Smaller number $=2\times 10^{-10}$

Then

$\dfrac{\text{Greater number}}{\text{Smaller number}}\\ \\=\dfrac{4\times 10^{-5}}{2\times 10^{-10}}\\ \\=\dfrac{4}{2}\times \dfrac{10^{-5}}{10^{-10}}\\ \\=2\times \dfrac{1}{10^{-5}}\\ \\=2\times 10^5\\ \\=2\times 100,000\\ \\=200,000$

Rename 4/7 as a percent. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.

enyata [817]

Answer:

Part 1) Option C. 57.1%

Part 2) Option B. 70.9%

Part 3) Option C. 66 2/3 %

Part 4) Option A. About 16

Part 5) Option A. About $12

Part 6) Option B. About $9

Part 7) Option B. x/50=70/100

Part 8) Option B. 25%

Part 9) Option D. 800

Part 10) $1,770

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Rename 4/7 as a percent

we know that

To rename a number as a percent, multiply the number by 100

so

(4/7)*100=400/7=57.1%

Part 2) Rename .709 as a percent

we know that

To rename a number as a percent, multiply the number by 100

so

0.709*100=70.9%

Part 3) If 1/3 is equivalent to 33 1/3% what percent is equivalent to 2/3?

we know that

33 1/3%=(33*3+1)/3 %=100/3 %

By proportion

(100/3 %)/(1/3)=x/(2/3)

x=200/3 %=66 2/3 %

Part 4) Alice plays basketball. In one game she shoots 21 free throws and makes 81.25% of them. Estimate how many she makes

To find the exact value multiply the total shoots by the percentage

21*(81.25/100)=17.06

so

<em>To find the estimate value</em>

21 shoots is about 20

81.25% is about 80%

so

20*(80/100)=16

the answer is about 16

Part 5) Estimate 48% of 23.95

To find the exact value multiply the number by the percentage

23.95*(48/100)=11.50

<em>To find the estimate value</em>

23.95 is about 24

48% is about 50%

so

24*(50/100)=12

Part 6) The bill at a restraint is $58.50 and Mrs. Johnson wants to leave a 15% tip. Approximately how much money

To find the exact value multiply the bill by the percentage

so

$58.50*(15/100)=$8.78

<em>To find the approximate value</em>

$58.50 is about $60

$60*(15/100)=$9

Part 7) Which proportion can be used to solve the following percent problem? What is 50% if 100% is 70?

using proportion

x/50=70/100

x=70*50/100

x=35

Part 8) What percent of 50 is 12.5?

using proportion

50/100%=12.5/x%

x=100*12.5/50

x=25%

Part 9) 50 Is 6.25% of what number?

using proportion

50/6.25%=x/100%

x=100*50/6.25

x=800

Part 10) Chris works at Higgins’ Automart and is selling a new Shelby Mustang for $59,000. If he earns a commission of 3%, how much money does he earn?

we know that

$59,000 ------> represent the 100%

using proportion

Find how much money represent 3% of the commission

59,000/100%=x/3%

so

X=$59,000*(3/100)=$1,770
