30% of 1.5 is 0.45.
6.) Answer: 7.198
Step-by-step explanation:
$499.99 is 100%. We need to find $35.99 off of it in percentage.
499.99/35.99 = 100/x
499.99x = 3599, x = 3599/499.99
x ≈ 7.198
Answer:
3 3/7 or 24/7 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
Let total job = X
Jeff's rate = X/6
Bob's rate = X/8
Combined rate = X/6 + X/8
(4X × 3X)/24 = 7X/24
7X/24 = X/T
T = X ÷ (7X/24)
T = X × (24/7X)
T = 24/7 mins
Shortcut:
T = product of individual times/sum of individual times
T = (6×8)/(6+8)
T = 48/14
T = 24/7
T = 3 3/7 mins
Answer:
r = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that r varies inversely as t , then the equation relating them is
r =
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition t = - 6 when r = - 2, then
- 2 =
( multiply both sides by - 6 )
12 = k, thus
r =
← equation of variation
when t = - 7, then
r =
= -
