Answer:
21 kWh
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subtract 25% from the original amount.
25% of 28 kWh is ...
0.25 × 28 kWh = 7.00 kWh
Subtracting this from 28 kWh, we find the usage after reduction to be ...
28 kWh - 7 kWh = 21 kWh
__
2. We know that if we reduce 100% of a quantity by 25%, then the resulting amount is (100 -25)% = 75% of the original. As a fraction, this is 75/100 = 3/4 of the original amount. Then the reduced usage is ...
(3/4) × (28 kWh) = 3·(7·4)/4 kWh = 3·7 kWh = 21 kWh
__
Mario must reduce his usage to 21 kWh or less.
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
the sides MJ and MK should be equal so 12x-24 = 4x
if you isolate x you get 3
Now, as the pizza is circular, so it does not matter about the box shape. If the box shape increases or decreases, the pizza shape is the same.
Now, we have been asked about the largest pizza radii that can fit in the box, so we will consider the shortest value of the box.
The width is given as 14 inches. There is a 2 inch border around the pizza. So, the width is 14-4 = 10 inches. (Now assume this as the diameter of pizza)
And the radius is = inches.
So, the largest pizza that can fit in the box will have a radius of 5 inches.
$20 bought 16 songs
Therefore each song costs $20/16 = $5/4 = $1.25
So:
2 songs would cost 2 * $1.25
3 songs would cost 3 * $1.25
...
x songs would cost x * $1.25
Since Renata started with $20, then her balance (y) after buying x songs would be:
y = 20 - 1.25*x
