15 times the square of a nonzero number is equal to 20 times the number

Mathematics
1 answer:
melisa1 [442]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Let the number be x

The expression above is written as

15x² = 20x

Divide both sides by x

We get

15x²/x = 20x/x

15x = 20

Divide both sides by 15

x = 20/15

x = 4/3

Hope this helps

. During a year, the probability a structure will be damaged by an earthquake (A) is 0.02, that it will be damaged by a hurrican
enyata [817]

Answer:

0.9506

Step-by-step explanation:

Pr(A) = 0.02

Pr(B) = 0.03

Pr(both) = 0.007

So,

Pr(Not A) = 1 - Pr(A)

               = 1 - 0.02

               = 0.98

Pr(Not B) = 1 - Pr(B)

               = 1 - 0.03

                = 0.97

Pr(Not by both) = 1 - Pr(both)

                          = 1 - 0.007

                          = 0.993

Thus,

Pr(Not B) or Pr(Not A) = 0.97 × 0.98

                                    = 0.9056

∴ the probability that the house would not be damaged by a hurricane or an earthquake during the year is 0.9506.

What is the second step when evaluating the expression 49 + 63 ÷ (3 + 2 × 2) – 7? 63 ÷ 3 63 ÷ 7 2 × 2 3 + 4
Zarrin [17]

ANSWER: Multiply and Divide from left to right

To do this question we must follow the rules of PEMDAS. The first step would be to evaluate the equation given to us in the parentheses. To solve that we would have to use PEMDAS once again which tells us to multiply 2 x 2 before we add 3, so we get 7. Now that there is no more Parentheses, our second step is to evaluate each Multiplication and Division expression from left to right. This would start by dividing 63 by 7 to get 9.

mart [117]

Answer:

Part A

Each time you press F9 on your keyboard, you see an alternate life for Jacob, with his status for each age range shown as

either alive or dead. If the dead were first to appear for the age range of 75 to 76, for example, this would mean that Jacob

died between the ages of 75 and 76, or that he lived to be 75 years old.

Press F9 on your keyboard five times and see how long lacab lives in each of his alternate lives. How long did lacob live each

time?

Can anybody tell me why it’s “-275”? Why is it negative ? And what is the formula for finding y? And if y=b how do you find b?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

275 is the amount SPENT per month for rent. Since you are decreasing that amount from your savings, it is represented with a negative sign.

The formula is: y = mx + b      where

  • m is the rate             -->   -275 per month
  • b is the fixed rate     --> 3500 savings

If you think about it logically - You have 3500 and spend $275 per month

1st month: 3500 - 275 = 3225

2nd month: 3225 - 275 = 2950

3rd month: 2950 - 275 = 2675

4th month: 2675 - 275 = 2400

5th month: 2400 - 275 = 2125

6th month: 2125 - 275 = 1850

It is easier to write it as an equation where x is the number of months and y is the balance for that month.

y = -275x + 3500

To check if the point (6, 1850) is on the line, input x = 6 and y = 1850

     y = -275x   +  3500

1850 = -275(6) + 3500

1850 =  -1650  + 3500

1850 =        1850

Since it makes a true statement, (6, 1850) is a point on the line.
