A family paid $26.400 as a down payment for a home. If this represents 16% of the price of the home, find the price of the home.

1 answer:

7 0

The correct answer is:

How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X
Y is 26,400, P% is 16%, so the equation is 26,400/16% = X
Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Converting 16% to a decimal: 16/100 = 0.16
Substitute 0.16 for 16% in the equation: 26,400/0.16 = X
Do the math: 26,400/0.16 = X
X = 165,000
So $ 165,000 is the price of the home.

then
1/x = (3/6) = (1/2)
so the answer would be
x = 2

Answer:solve for x

-3x+5y=-15

Add -5y to both sides

-3x+5y+-5y=-15+-5y

-3x=-5y-15

Divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3=-5y-15/-3

x= 5/3 y +5

I hope that's help!

If 270°<θ<360°, and tan⁡ θ= - 1/2, what is the value of tan⁡(−θ)?

stiv31 [10]

Check the picture below.

let's recall that once we move an angle in the opposite direction of the 0-line or x-axis, we end up with a negative counterpart angle.

since we know that θ is on the IV Quadrant, then its negative counterpart must be across the line, and tangent is negative on the IV Quadrant, and positive on the I Quadrant.
