(is/of) = (P/100)
(24/x) = (60/100)
cross multiply

What is 8/10 divided by 1 5/6
sveta [45]
1st change 1 5/6 into a mixed number:
1 5/6 = 11/6

New problem:
8/10 divided by 11/6

to divide fractions you turn the 1st fraction upside down and then change the division sign to a multiplication sign:

8/10 / 11/6
10/8 * 11/6
=55/24 or 1 7/24

At a local preschool, there is a ratio of 3 boys to every 4 girls. If there are 245 total preschoolers enrolled, then how many a
Reika [66]

Set up the equation by writing the number of students in the ratio as a fraction:

3/4= (245-x)/x Cross multiply:

3x= 4(245-x) Multiply on right:

3x= 980-4x Add 4x on both sides:

7x= 980 Divide both sides by 7:

x= 140 this is how many girls there are. And:

245-140= 105= boys

Suppose the graph of a cubic polynomial function has the same zeroes and passes through the coordinate (0, -5). Write the equati
amid [387]
In this we know all three zeros and one point from which the graph pass.
So we will let specific cubic polynomial function of the form
f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)

As we know zeros are that point where we will get value of function equal to zero. So it is basically in form (x_n , 0)

SO in given question zeros are (2 , 0) , (3, 0) and (5,0)
So we can say x_1 = 2 , x_2 = 3 , x_3 = 5

So required equation is
f(x) = a (x-2)(x-3)(x-5)
              = a[(x^2 - 2x - 3x + 6)(x-5)]
              = a[(x^2 - 5x+6)(x-5)]
              = a(x^3 - 5x^2 + 6x- 5x^2 + 25x - 30)
              = a(x^3 - 10x^2+31x-30)
Now we have one point (0 , -5) from which graph passes.
So we say at x = 0 , f(x) = -5
-5= a (0-0+0 - 30)
-5 = -30a
a =  \frac{-5}{-30} =  \frac{1}{6}
So required equation of cubic polynomial is
f(x) =  \frac{1}{6}(x^3 -10x^2+31x-30)

For finding y - intercept we simply plugin x = 0 in given equation.
As we know at x = 0 , value of function is -5.
So y - intercept is -5.

A rocket is launched into the air. The height h(t), in yards, of the rocket is a function of time, t, in seconds, as shown in th
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change is the same thing as the slope.  Because this is parabolic, we cannot find the exact rate of change as we could if this were a linear function.  But we can use the same idea.  When t = 3, h(t) = 33, so the coordinate point is (3, 33).  When t = 6, h(t) = 0, so the coordinate is (6, 0).  Plug those values into the slope formula:

m=\frac{0-33}{6-3} and

m=\frac{-33}{3} which is -11

From 3 to 6 seconds, the rocket is falling 11 yards per second.
