So you know that there are 51 states in the US. 49/51 are apart of the continental US. 
To find that percentage, all we need to do is divide 49 by 51 and convert the decimal we get into a percentage.

49/51= 0.9607...
To convert this into a percentage, we multiply it by 100. This is the equivalent of moving the decimal point over two places to the right.

49/51= 96.07% of the states are part of the continental US


Does this make sense? Hope it helped!

Please help explain how to solve problem 16?
Anarel [89]
Here is the problem.....√(15x + 10) = 2x+3

to remove the square root, we do the opposite which is to square everything.

(√(15x + 10))² = (2x + 3)²      (the square negates the square root)
15x + 10 = (2x +3)(2x + 3)    (use the distributive property to continue)
15x + 10 = 4x² + 6x + 6x + 9  (combine like terms)
15x + 10 = 4x² + 12x + 9      (subtract 15x and 10 from each side)
-15x - 10          -15x - 10
0 = 4x² - 3x - 1                      (factor completely)
(x - 1) (4x + 1)                    (set each to equal 0)

x - 1 = 0                4x + 1 = 0
x = 1                      4x = -1
                               x = -1/4

place both into the equation to check for reasonableness...we see the negative number is not reasonable, but the x value of 1 is a solution.

the number of points in the first five games of the football season are listed below. what is the mean number of points scored?
yarga [219]
^ You again? Quit being sus and answer the question here instead of elsewhere.

To find the mean, all you have to do is add each number and then divide by how many numbers you added.

So, 38 + 29 + 16 + 42 + 33 = 158. There were five numbers added, so the next step is to divide 158 by 5. That equals 31.6 as your answer.
