Raj and Aditi like to play chess against each other. Aditi has won 12 of the 20 games so far. They decide to play more games. Ho

w many more games will Aditi have to win to have a 70% winning record? 12 + x = 0.70(20 + x) x = ≈ 6.67 She will have to win 7 more games to have a 70% winning record. How many more games will Aditi have to win to have an 80% winning record? The linear equation that models this is . Aditi would have to win more games to have an 80% winning record.

12 + x = 0.80(20+x)
12 + x = 16 + 0.80x
12 = 16 -0.2x
-4 = -0.2x

x = -4/-0.2 = 20
they need to win 20 more games

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that she have to win games to have a 70% winning record :

$12 + x = 0.70(20 + x)$

$x = 6.67$

So, She will have to win 7 more games to have a 70% winning record.

Now we are supposed to find how many more games will she have to win to have an 80% winning record

So, equation becomes:

$12 + x = 0.80(20 + x)$

$12 + x = 16 + 0.8x$

$x-0.8x= 16 -12$

$0.2x= 4$

$x= \frac{4}{0.2}$

$x=20$

PLS HELP <br>find the unknown side of the triangle below (round to the nearest tenth) <br>

Nonamiya [84]

22.9 is the closest but not exact. It was probably rounded off.

I used the formula: leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2

(You can use that formula for any right triangle.)

Write an equation for a function that has vertical asymptotes at x=3 & x=-10

stepan [7]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{ {x}^{2} + 7x - 30}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a rational function.

We need to make sure our denominator both have zeroes at 3 and 10.

Set an equation equal to zero to find the function

$0 - x = 3$

$0 - x = - 10$

$0 - ( - 3) = = 3$

$0 - 10 = 10$

So we would represent that's as

$x - 3$

and

$x + 10$

Multiply the two binomial together.

$(x - 3)(x + 10) = {x}^{2} + 7x - 30$

Let our numbetator be any interger.

Use any equation as long as the quadratic is the denominator and the interger is the numerator.

$\frac{5}{ {x}^{2} + 7x - 30 }$

Answer:

The absolute change in the height of the water is 9.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$l =24in$ --- length

$w = 15in$ --- width

$h =12in$ --- height

$V_1 = 900in^3$ --- the volume removed

Required

The absolute change in the height of the water

First, calculate the base area (b):

$b = l * w$

$b =24in * 15in$

$b =360in^2$

The height of the water that was removed is:

<em /> $H = \frac{V_1}{b}$ <em> i.e. the volume of the water removed divided by the base area</em>

$H = \frac{900in^3}{360in^2}$

$H = \frac{900in}{360}$

$H = 2.5in$

The absolute change in height is:

$\triangle H = |h - H|$

$\triangle H = |12in - 2.5in|$

$\triangle H = |9.5in|$

$\triangle H = 9.5in$
