Show how Carly can work out 171/2% of 240 in her head
KATRIN_1 [288]

17 ½ % of 240

First option

Change  the fraction ½ to a decimal. It would be 0.5 ( 1 divided by 2)

½=0.5

You will add the whole number 17 to the result.

17 + 05 = 17.5

Now you will divide by 100 (percent)

17.5 /100  To divide a decimal by 100,  move the decimal point two places to the left.

17.5 /100 = 0.175   times 240

0.175 x 240 = 42

Second option

Change the percent to an improper fraction

17 ½= 35/2 (you have to multiply (2 x 17) plus 1 equals 35 over 2 ( keep the denominator). It will be 35/2.  Put the other number (240) over 100 and multiply.

35/2 x 240/100 = 42

There is another way . You can simplify

Cancel all the zeros that you have and start to reduce.

            6

7       12

35 x 24<span> 0   </span> =  42

2       10 0

 1          5

           1

17 ½ % of 240  =  42

Choose the proper rationale. "In the compound interest equation, time
k0ka [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

c. Time is an exponent while the other units are factors.

Explanation:

In the compound interest formula, time is the exponent.

Since it is the exponent, this tells us how many times the base is multiplied by itself.  As such, it has a larger effect on the answer than any other piece of the equation.

Write the number below as a fraction in its simplest form 0.˙49˙9 (more clearer picture is attached here)
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

499/999

Step-by-step explanation:

The decimal number written is:

0.499...

Such that these 3 decimals are repeated as:

0.499499499...

Let's define this number as k

k = 0.499...

Let's multiply this number by 1000 (the same number of zeros as important decimals after the decimal point)

we get:

1000*k = (1000)*(0.499...) = 499.499...

Now we can subtract the original number k, so we get:

1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...

In this way, we remove the part after the decimal point:

1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...

(1000 - 1)*k = 499

999*k = 499

Now we can divide both sides by 999

(999*k)/999 = 499/999

k = 499/999

The fraction notation of our number is 499/999 (and this is the simplest form)

I need help plz ???
jasenka [17]

Answer: M=-2 , B= 2 , Equation: Y= -2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

M is the slope. Slope is "rise / run", so 2 over -1. simplified, that is -2. B is the y-intercept, or where the graph crosses the y-axis. So, b will be 2.
