Answer:

(1) C

(2) D

(3) B

(4) B

(5) C

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) % decrease = change in price/initial price × 100 = (25 -20)/25 × 100 = 5/25 × 100 = 20

(2) Number of correct answers he answered in the second test = 150 + (30/100 × 150) = 150 + 45 = 195

(3) Let the number be y

3(y + 2) = 24

y + 2 = 24/3 = 8

y + 2 = 8

y = 8 - 2 = 6

(4) Let my father's age be f, my brother's age be b and my age be m

From the first statement

f/5 = b/3 ----- eqn (1)

From the second statement

b = m + 3 ----- eqn (2)

From the third statement

f = 2m - 3 ------ eqn (3)

Substitute the expression of b and f in eqn 2 & 3 into eqn 1

(2m - 3)/5 = (m + 3)/3

3(2m - 3) = 5(m + 3)

6m - 9 = 5m + 15

6m - 5m = 15 + 9

m = 24

Substitute the value of m into eqn 3

f = 2m - 3 = 2(24) - 3 = 48 - 3 = 45

(5) (x - 2)/4 - (3x + 5)/7 = -3

The LCM of 4 and 7 is 28

Multiply each term in the equation by 28

7(x - 2) -4(3x + 5) = -3(28)

7x - 14 - 12x - 20 = -84

-5x - 34 = -84

-5x = -84 + 34

-5x = -50

x = -50/-5 = 10

Urgent help please

Let's assume the frequency of sound be f and wave length is w.

Given that, the frequency of sound varies inversely as the wavelength.

So, we can set up an equation as following:

f*w = k Where k= constant of variation.

Other information is, the frequency of a musical note is 276 cycles per second when the wavelength is 1.2m.

So, next step is to plug in f = 276 and w = 1.2 in the above equation to get the value of k.

276 * 1.2 = k

So, k = 331.2

Next step is to plug in k = 331.2 in the above equation. So,

f * w = 331.2

Now we need to find the wave length : w when frequency : f = 600.

Therefore,

600 * w = 331.2

w = \frac{331.2}{600}

So, w = 0.552

Hence, the wave length is 0.552 m.

Hope this helps you!.

There are 1420 students enrolled at Senn. If 60% of these students walk to school, how many students are walking to school?
pychu [463]

Answer:

852 students walking to school

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start with a simple example so you can get it

if 60% of 100 students walk to school that means

60 students walk to school... right??

so lets simplify it more that means you have multiplied 100 (students) by 60%

or \frac{60}{100}  (note: you can say that 60% is equal to \frac{60}{100} )

so the problem told 60% of 1420 students walk to school that means we should

do this:     1420*\frac{60}{100} = 852
