In this question, you are only able to cancel out the (x + 5). The others are unable to be cancelled.
Y=a(x-h)^2+k
-5=a(1-0)^2+2
-5=a+2
-3=a
y=-3x^2+2
Answer:
base -l*b - 13*6.5 - 84.5
To find what the number is, we need to set up proportional fractions.
Currently, we have 8% of a number is 20.
To set up our fractions, put 100% under 8% as a fraction first.
It should look like this: 8/100 (hint: per-cent means per-hundred).
Now, we have 20 out of a number, x. This is because we are claiming that 20 is 8% of a number (if we just reword the question without changing the concept).
It should look like this: 20/x.
Our proportional fractions are:
20/x = 8/100.
To solve for this, we need to cross-multiply the denominator of 8/100 (bottom number, 100) with the numerator of 20/x (top number, 20).
This product equation should look like this:
20 x 100 (when simplified, we get 2000).
Now, we need to cross multiply the numerator of 8/100 (top number, 8) with the denominator of 20/x (bottom number, x).
This product equation should look like this:
8x.
Now that we've cross-multiplied, set our two products as an equation.
8x = 2000.
To solve for x, divide both sides by 8 (remember, what you do to one side of an equation, you must do it to the other).
8x / 8 = x
2000 / 8 = 250.
x = 250
Your final answer is:
8% of 250 is 20.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
A. `1/2` foot
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the width of the box is shown below:
15 ÷ 28 = (5 ÷ 7)(1 1 ÷ 2)(width)
15 ÷ 28 = (5 ÷ 7)(3 ÷ 2)width
15 ÷ 28 = (15 ÷ 14)width
(15 ÷ 28) ÷ (15 ÷ 14) = width
(15 ÷ 28) × (14 ÷ 15) = width
w = 14 ÷ 28
= 1 ÷ 2 ft
