Answer:

y = (1/2)x - (15/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

goal: to rearrange the expression such that it is in the form

y = f(x); where f(x) is an expression in terms of x

given:

x - 2y = 15 (subtract x from both sides)

-2y = 15 - x (multiply both sides by -1 to make left side positive)

2y = -15 + x (divide both sides by 2 and rearrange)

y = (1/2)x - (15/2)

Bernardo is converting a fraction, StartFraction a Over b EndFraction, to a percent. Both a and b are whole numbers and not equa

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$Percent = \frac{100a}{b}\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{a}{b}$

Required

Convert to fraction

To do this, we simply multiply the fraction by 100%

This gives:

$Percent = \frac{a}{b} * 100\%$

$Percent = \frac{a * 100}{b}\%$

$Percent = \frac{100a}{b}\%$

The expression cannot be further simplified.

Take for instance the fraction is: $\frac{2}{5}$

Using the same analysis, the percentage would be:

$Percent = \frac{2}{5} * 100\%$

$Percent = \frac{2 * 100}{5}\%$

$Percent = \frac{200}{5}\%$

$Percent = 40\%$

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

C). 0 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

-4 + 6 sinx = -4 + 4 sinx

adding 4 on both sides:

4 - 4 + 6 sinx = 4 - 4 + 4 sinx

6sinx = 4sinx

dividing by 2 on both sides, we get:

6sinx/2 = 4sinx/2

3 sinx = 2 sinx

subtracting 2 sinx from both sides we get:

sin x = 0

x = sin⁻¹ (0)

x = 0 degrees

The price of a technology stock was $9.71 yesterday today the price rose to $9.84 find the percentage increase round your answer

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

1.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the percentage increase between these two prices, we must first find the difference in price. We calculate this by subtracting the final price by the initial price like so...

$9.84 - 9.71 = 0.13

Now we divide the difference by the initial price to find what percentage of the initial price this difference is, since this percentage difference was added to the initial price to get the new and final price point.

0.13 / 9.71 = 0.013388 ... multiply by 100 to get percent value

0.013388 * 100 = 1.3388% or 1.34% rounded.
