56 is 140% of what number

Mathematics

1 answer:

Ann [662]3 years ago

just remember two things :

* is means =

* of means X

SO ; it says 140 %. that will be 140/100 = 1.4

let that missing number be x.

56 = 1.4x

56 / 1.4 = x

<u>40 = x</u>

Am i correct ? geometry problem

MrRa [10]

Unfortunately your response would only be true if CD was perpendicular to AB. However we don't know if CD is perpendicular or not. So we don't have enough information. The actual answer is choice E) None of these.

Heyy pls help! worth 20 points, and please only help if you know the answer. also no links those r kinda annoying lol

Step 1: Find the slope:

$m= \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \dfrac{-2-7}{4-(-2)} = \dfrac{-9}{6}= -\dfrac{3}{2}$

This gives you $y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+b$ , but we need to find b.

To find b, substitute in one (x,y) pair and it doesn't matter which one. I'll go with (4,-2):

$\begin{aligned}-2&=-\dfrac{3}{2}(4)+b\\[0.5em]-2&=-6+b\\[0.5em]4&=b\end{aligned}$

Now take that b-value and plug in into the slope-intercept form:

$y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+4$

It's always a good idea to toss in the other x-value from the other point, to make sure it checks out.

The population of Luis’s city in 2005 was 7400 and the population in 2010 was 9000. Let x represent the number of years since 20

Answer:

The linear equation is;

y = 320x + 7400

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write a linear equation that represents the population y at a year since 2005

To write this, we need points

Initially, we have (0,7400)

Since the difference between 2005 and 2010 is 5, the second point will be (5,9000)

Mathematically, we can get the slope as follows;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (9000-7400)/(5-0) = 1,600/5 = 320

The equation of the line can be represented using the general form as;

y = mx + b

where m is 320 and b is unknown

So we have the equation as;

y = 320x + b

we need to get b

To get b, we can use any point

let us use the point (0,7400)

substituting this;

7400 = 320(0) + c

c = 7400

so the equation is;

y = 320x + 7400

How to determine relationship between two variables with standard deviation?

luda_lava [24]

Standard deviation is the average distance between two points on the graph. If the standard deviation (sd) is high, then the variables relationship is more spread out and unlike one another. The smaller the sd, the closer and less varied the variables are.
