At a video arcade, the action video games this week cost $25, which is 125% of last week's price. What was its price last week?

1 answer:

8 0

First you can write it as 1.25 which it is the decimal version of the percent. Then write the 1.25x = 25. After divide both sides by 1.25. Ta da, You have your answer (which is 20).

-1 3/7 x (-3 2/3)=?

xxTIMURxx [149]

I was not sure if the x in your equation was a multiplication sign or a variable
6/7x
-1 multiplied by 3/7x times -2
And when you multiply two negatives it equals a posible so the -2 and -1 turn into a positive

Which is the solution to the inequality? y minus 27 greater-than-or-equal-to negative 13 y greater-than-or-equal to negative 40

djyliett [7]

Answer:

$y\geq 14$

y greater than or equal to 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality:

$y-27\geq -13$

We solve it by isolating the variable y on one side. That is, in our case we add 27 to both sides and get:

$y-27\geq -13\\y\geq 27-13\\y\geq 14$

Find the midpoint of the segment with the given endpoints.

Ksju [112]

The mid-point for given endpoints is (4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

a mid-point is the point on a line segment that divides it into two equal portions.

If (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the coordinates of vertices of a line segment, then mid-point is given by:

$M = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

given

(x1,y1) = (9,9)

(x2,y2) = (-1,-3)

$M = (\frac{9-1}{2}, \frac{9-3}{2})\\\\=(\frac{8}{2}, \frac{6}{2})\\\\=(4,3)$

The mid-point for given endpoints is (4,3)

Which graph represents the solution to the given system ? Y=- 6X - 2Y +2=- 6X

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: The graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Given the first equation:

$y=- 6x - 2$

You can identify that:

$m=-6\\b=-2$

By definition, the line intersects the x-axis when $y=0$ . Then, subsituting this value into the equation and solving for "x", you get that the x-intercept is:

$0=- 6x - 2\\\\2=-6x\\\\x=-\frac{1}{3}\\\\x=-0.333$

Now you can graph it.

Solve for "y" from the second equation:

$y +2=- 6x\\\\y=-6x-2$

You can identify that:

$m=-6\\b=-2$

Notice that the slopes and the y-intercepts of the first line and the second line are equal; this means that they are exactly the same line and the System of equations has<u> Infinitely many solutions.</u>

See the graph attached.

PLEASE HELP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!<br> Question is in the image.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The interquartile range of a data set is the difference between the upper and lower quartiles.

First, put the values in order from least to greatest:

8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 22

To find the upper quartile, we need to first find the median.

The median of this data set is 11, because it is in the middle of the values.

The upper quartile is the median of all the numbers to the left of 11.

The median of 8, 9, 9, 9, and 10 is 9, because it's in the middle.

So the upper quartile is 9.

The lower quartile is the same, but to the right of 11. The median of 13, 15, 17, 18, and 22 is 17 because it's in the middle.

Now, to find the interquartile range, find the difference between 18 and 9.

17 - 9 = 8
