I got ten. Here's the equation. 

x = 1/2x + 5 

<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>

<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>

<span>1/2x = 5 </span>

<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>

<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>

<span>x = 10 cats</span>

xeze [42]

Answer:

1. 69

2. 2989

3. Incomplete

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Covert 1000101 from base 2 to base 10

To convert a number from base 2 to base 10, we have to multiply individual digits of that number by the power of the base the digit represent.

First, we start our digit representation from the rightmost digit to the leftmost digit

This will give us

1

0

1

0

0

0

1

(notice that the digits are represented in a backward direction)

The first digit is at position 0, the next is at position 1, the next is at 2 till we get to the last digit; i.e.

1 -> 0

0 -> 1

1 -> 2

0 -> 3

0 -> 4

0 -> 5

1 -> 6

The next step is to remove the 0 individual digits, so we have

1 -> 0

1 -> 2

1 -> 6

After the we multiply the individual digits by the power of the base the digit represent

In this question, we're dealing with base 2

So, this gives us

1 * 2^0 = 1 * 1 = 1

1 * 2^2 = 1 * 4 = 4

1 * 2^6 = 1 * 64 = 64

The last step is to add up the results above

1 + 4 + 64 =69

2. Convert bad from base 16 to base 10

We apply the same method in question 1 to this

First, we start our digit representation from the rightmost to the leftmost digit

d

a

b

Then we introduce the position

d -> 0

a -> 1

b -> 2

There's no 0 digits in this, so we skip this step.

The next step after this is to convert each hexadecimal alphabet to hexadecimal digits

The hexadecimal represents digits in the following way;

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f

Notice that after 9, it switched to alphabet a, then b till it gets to f

The alphabets represents numbers. a represents 10; b, 11; c, 12; d, 13; e, 14 and f, 15.

So, our hexadecimal alphabets will be replaced with the digits equivalent

13 -> 0

10 -> 1

11 -> 2

Then we multiply the individual digits by the power of the base of the digits represent.

Here, we're dealing with base 16.

So, we have

13 * 16^0 = 13 * 1 = 13

10 * 16^1 = 10 * 16 = 160

11 * 16^2 = 11 * 256 = 2816

Then we add these results

13 + 160 + 2816 = 2989

3. Incomplete question.

In question 1, we converted from base 2 to base 10

Here, I'll convert the result in question 1 to base 2

So I'll be working base on this following question.

Convert 69 in base 10 to base 2

Converting from base 10 to any base requires division (unlike question 1 and 2 above)

An important thing to note is the remainder and the resulting quotient (as, will be seen later)

It's also to be noted that, the division will not stop until the resulting quotient equals 0.

Also, the divisor will be the base we're converting from.

The divisor is 2, in this case.

Step 1. Divide 69 by 2

69/2 = 34 remainder 1.

Is 34 equals to 0? No.

Meaning that we have to continue dividing

Step 2. 34/2 = 17 remainder 0

Step 3. 17/2 = 8 remainder 1

Step 4 8/2 = 4 remainder 0

Step 5. 4/0 = 2 remainder 0

Step 6. 2/2 = 1 remainder 0

Step 7. 1/2 = 0 remainder 1

We stop here, because our quotient is now 0

Our results is the reminder; but we have to pick each remainder from the bottom to the top;

i.e. 1000101

So, 69 in base 10 equals 1000101 in base 2

Identify the median for the data of Johnny’s test scores: 92, 96, 97, 83, 92, 58, 93, 88, 77, 48, 65, 80, 71
Anastasy [175]

Answer

The median is 83

Step-by-step explanation:

You must put the scores in order to find median.

48, 58, 65, 71, 77, 80, 83, 88, 92, 92, 93, 96, 97

Then you find the number that is in the exact middle of the list.

In this case the median (middle number) is 83

Days/ cost to rent a truck 1/34 2/50 3/66 4/82 A/ C=16d B/ C= 16d + 18 C/ C= 16d + 16 D/ C=18d + 16
Mamont248 [21]
Use the given information as (x, y) points.
You have
(1, 34)
(2, 50)
(3, 66)
(4, 82)
The difference between renting for 1 day and 2 days is 50 - 34 = 16.
The difference between renting for 2 days and 3 days is 66 - 50 = 16
The difference between renting for 3 days and 4 days is 82 - 66 = 16
For each day you rent you pay $16.
Now look at renting for 1 day.
The rental for 1 day is $16, but for 1 day you pay $34.
$34 - $16 = $18
There is an extra $18 in the rental for every day. The $18 is fixed.
That means, to rent a truck, you must pay a fixed amount of $18 plus $16 per day.

total cost = daily cost + fixed cost
total cost =       16d    +      16
c = 16d + 18
