Answer:
64.8% of elephants were killed for ivory
Step-by-step explanation:
divide the number of elephants killed for ivory by the total number of elephants killed: 186÷287= 0.6780
multiply your answer by 100 to get a percentage: 0.6780 x 100= 67.8%
It shoukd be A if im not mistaken
1000 is our constant because the truck was only used one day. We also know they charge a certain amount per hour, but we do not know how much. In this case they charged that amount 9 times because the truck was used for 9 hours. The total of the constant plus the 9hour fee is 2700 dollars:
1000(1) + 9x = 2700
The reason we multiply 1000 by 1, is because we only used the truck for one day.
Solve for x
9x = 2700 - 1000 = 1700
X = 1700/9 = 188.88
The hourly fee is $188.88
The question is asking for an equation for hours of use though, so the answer is
1000(1) + 9(188.88) = C
C represents cost or charge.
Answer:
24mm
Step-by-step explanation:
since it's a similar triangle, we solve;
EH/EG=DH/DG
EH=56mm;
EG=44.8mm;
DH=35mm;
DG=X+4.
Fix them,
56/44.8=35/x+4
cross multiply
56(x+4)=35×44.8
56x+224=1,568
collect the like term
56x=1,344
divide via by 56
56x/56=1344/56
x=24mm
Check/ verify
EH/EG=DH/DG
56/44.8=35/24+4
56/44.8=35/28
CROSS MULTIPLY OVER THE EQUAL SIGN.
56×28=35×44.8
1,568=1,568
THAT'S CORRECT.
I would start by plugging in a number for x. Just any random number. Let's take 2 for example. Then the equation would go from 2x + y = -4, to 2(2) + y = -4. Then solve.
2(2) + y = -4
4 + y = -4, after you've done that, plug in a number for y, that completes the equation. In this case, the only acceptable number, would be -8. Because it completes the number sentence.
4 + (-8) = -4
-4 = -4.
Now plug in other numbers, to get the same outcome. Hope this helped!
