Let Brian's steps have a measure of 1, and Richard's steps have a measure of k. Then after each walks 5 steps away from the other, their distance apart is

... 5 + 5k

We are told that distance is equal to 9 of Richard's steps, so is equal to 9k.

... 5 + 5k = 9k

... 5 = 4k . . . . . . . subtract 5k

... 5/4 = k . . . . . . divide by 4

Richard's steps are 5/4 the size of Brian's steps. The appropriate selection is

... b) 5/4

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Daily evening newspapers in 2015 = 389

Percentage decrease from 2000 to 2015 = 46.5%

To find:

Number of newspapers in 2000 = ?

Solution:

Let the number of newspapers in 2000 = x

When 46.5% of the total newspapers in 2000 (x) is subtracted from the total  newspapers in 2000 (x), it will be equal to the number of newspapers in 2015.

Making the equation as per the given statement:

x-x\times 46.5\%=389\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{100x-46.5x}{100}=389\\\Rightarrow 53.5x=38900\\\Rightarrow x\approx \bold{727}

Therefore, the answer is:

There were <em>727 </em>newspapers in 2000.

Plz help I will mark as the brainlist
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

1/25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that in this pattern, the denominator and the numerator of the next fraction cancel out; they're the same.

(1/2) x (2/3) x (3/4) = 1/4 (do you see it?)

The only things that do not cancel out are the numerator of the first fraction and the denominator of the last. So, in the end, the answer will be 1/25.

Hope this helps!
