Well we know that
15/60 can be reduced to 1/4
And 1/4 can be turned into a percent as 25%

So your answer is 25%

Good Luck! :)

If d(x) = x2 - 7x - 7, find d(x - 1).

satela [25.4K]

Answer: x^2-9x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-7x-7 d(x-1)

(you would just replace x to (x-1)

(x-1)^2-7(x-1)-7

(solve by square rooting (x-1)(x-1) then foil)

x^2-9x+1

Solve for c: a=7b+8c+9d-10

polet [3.4K]

a=7b+8c+9d-10
a = 8c + 16d - 10
solve for c then
8c = a - 16d + 10
c = (a - 16d + 10) / 8
or
c = a/8 - 2d + 5/4

A store is having a sale on trail mix and jelly beans. For 5 pounds of trail mix and 6 pounds of jelly beans the total cost is $

inna [77]

The cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = cost/pound of trail mix

Let j = cost/pound of jelly beans

5t + 6j = 35

3t + 2j = 15 = > 2j = 15 - 3t

5t + 3(15 - 3t) = 35

5t + 45 - 9t = 35

- 4t + 45 = 35

- 4t = - 10

4t = 10

t = 2.5

3(2.5) + 2j = 15

7.5 + 2j = 15

2j = 7.5

j = 3.75

2 2/3 + 12 6/8 how do I work this

barxatty [35]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{6}{8}=15\dfrac{5}{12}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{6}{8}=2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{6:2}{8:2}=2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\\text{Find}\ LCD:\\\\\text{List of multiples of 3:}\ 0,\ 3,\ 6,\ 9,\ \boxed{12},\ 15,\ ...\\\text{List of multiples of 4:}\ 0,\ 4,\ 8,\ \boxed{12},\ 16,\ ...\\\\12=3\cdot4\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{2\cdot4}{3\cdot4}=\dfrac{8}{12}\\\\\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{3\cdot3}{4\cdot3}=\dfrac{9}{12}\\\\2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{3}{4}=2\dfrac{8}{12}+12\dfrac{9}{12}=(2+12)+\dfrac{8+9}{12}=14+\dfrac{17}{12}\\\\=14+1\dfrac{5}{12}=15\dfrac{5}{12}$
