Let x = 0.376376376...

Then 1000x = 376.376376376...

So we have

1000x - x = 376.376376376... - 0.376376376...

999x = 376

x = 376/999

I need help with this (Please add work if possible), It would really help me a lot right now

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Remember, the formula is the second value minus the first value, divided by the first value times 100.

9. 50% Increase

10. 33% Decrease

11. 200% Increase

To calculate tip, simply move the decimal place 2 to the right and multiply it by the price. For example, If you want to leave a 20% tip, multiply the cost by 0.20 to get the tip amount or multiply the cost by 1.20 to get the total including tip.

12. $23.00

Solve each compound inequality and graph the solutions

Gnom [1K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x ≤ -20 or 5 ≤ x

see attached for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

You have done most of the work of solving the inequalities. The steps are ...

add the opposite of the constant on the side with the variable
multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of the variable.

x/5 -x ≤ -6

x/5 ≤ -4 . . . . . add 2

x ≤ -20 . . . . . multiply by 5

8x +1 ≥ 41

8x ≥ 40 . . . . . add -1

x ≥ 5 . . . . . . . multiply by 1/8

So, the two inequalities you want to graph are ...

x ≤ -20 or 5 ≤ x

The values x = -20 and x = 5 are part of the solution set, so there would be solid dots at those points. The shading of the number line will extend outward from those points.

Savannah planned to evenly disperse 400400400 chocolate chips among the xxx pans of brownies. Unfortunately, the last pan of bro

alukav5142 [94]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable:
x: total of pans of brownies.
We now write the expression for the last pan of brownie.
We have then:
y = 400 / x - 32
Answer:
an expression to find How many chocolate chips are in the last pan of brownies is:
y = 400 / x - 32
