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

x = -4/-0.2 = 20

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

Find the perimeter and area. (plz help with the answer)
ikadub [295]

Hello!

PERIMETER:

To find the perimeter of the trapezoid, simply add all sides together.

15 + 5 + 9 + 5 = 34

The perimeter is \boxed{ \bf 34~units.}

____________________________________________________________

AREA:

A = \frac{1}{2} h(b_{1} + b_{2})

A = \frac{1}{2} 4(9 + 15)

A = \frac{1}{2} 4(24)

A = 2(24)

A = 48

The area of the trapezoid is \boxed{ \bf 48~units^2}

Super confused definitely need help on this
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

(x-5)(x+8)=x^2+3x-40

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

(x-5)(x+8)

To multiply, distribute the left to the terms on the right:

=(x-5)(x)+(x-5)(8)

Distribute:

=(x^2-5x)+(8x-40)

Combine like terms:

=(x^2)+(-5x+8x)+(-40)

Simplify:

=x^2+3x-40

Therefore:

(x-5)(x+8)=x^2+3x-40

Laura paddles in her canoe at a speed of 5 mph for 5 miles. She then hops on her windsurfer and sails for 12 miles at a speed of
Inessa05 [86]

Laura paddles in her canoe at a speed of 5 mph for 5 miles.

As we know that

\text{Distance=Speed*Time}\\ \\ Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed} \\

Substitute the values we get

Time=\frac{5m}{5mph}=1hr.......(i)\\

Laura hops on her windsurfer and sails for 12 miles at a speed of 6 mph.

Again using the above formula we can write

Time=\frac{12m}{6mph}=2hr.......(ii)\\

Hence from equation (i) and (ii), we can say total time of travel=1hr+2hr=3hr\\
