Hey so if every time the minute hand clicks it turns 13.5 degrees and the question is asking us to find the fraction of a circle it covers in a third of a minute we must divide 13.5 by 3.
1) 13.5 / 3 = 4.5 degrees
Now we must find out what fraction of a circle 4.5 degrees is. If a circle is 360 degrees and the minute hand turns 4.5 degrees every third of a minute then we must divide 4.5 by 360 to get our answer.
2) 4.5/60
Finally let's simplify our answer
3) (4.5 / 60) / 1.5 = 3/40
ANSWER: The fraction of the circle the minute hand covers every third of a minute is 3/40
Answer:
-12.5%
-14.29%
Step-by-step explanation:
For #2:
Original price is $2.00, that price decreased by $0.25 is $1.75. First figure out what $0.25 out of $2.00 is as a percent:
0.25/2.00 = 0.125 = 12.5%
Then, since the price DECREASED by $0.25, the percent would be negative.
For #4:
Original price is $3.50, that price decreased by $0.50 is $3.00. Like #2, you need to figure out what $0.50 out of $3.50 is as a percent:
0.50/3.50 = 0.1429 = 14.29%
Then, since the price DECREASED by $0.50, the percent would be negative.
Ok so a dependent variable is one that depends on the other one
Answer:
First solve I will divide both sides by the coeeficient (the number attached to the vairable) -3. then I will have my answer of x = -4
