Answer:
The time it took until 2 inches of rain fell is 8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the proportional relationship between the amount of time (in hours) it had been raining, x, and the amount of rain (in inches) it had fallen, y, is y = 0.25*x
To find the time that passed until 2 inches of rain fell, you must replace the amount of rain (in inches) that had fallen "and" by that value. In this way the following expression is obtained:
2= 0.25*x
Solving:
8 = x
So, remembering that the amount of time it had been raining, x, is expressed in hours, <u><em>the time it took until 2 inches of rain fell is 8 hours</em></u>.
Answer: (-20,-4)
First, you substitute y into the first equation to get 0.01x - 0.3(0.1x - 2) = 1
You then distribute the 0.3 to what is inside the parentheses to get 0.01x-0.03x+0.6=1
(Note: the 0.6 is positive because two negatives multiplied equal a positive)
Now you combine like terms to get -0.02x+0.6=1
Subtract 0.6 from both sides of the equal sign to get -0.02x=0.4
Divide each side by -0.02 to get x=-20
Now plug in -20 to y=0.1x-2 to get y=-4
This gives you the answer (-20,-4)
Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Percentage problems are simple division problems. Here, what percentage of x is y means the answer is y divided by x (times 100). Let's apply it to this question.
Divide 72.6 by 88, 72.6/88. So the answer would be 0.825 then multiply it to 100 to make it a whole. The answer would 82.5%. I hope this helps you with your problem</span>
