1/15 as a decimal would be 0.6666666......
Or you can round that off to 0.67
Answer:
Mistake in Line 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Line 1
7(6) ÷ 5 + 42
Line 2
7(6) ÷ 5 + 16
Line 3
42 ÷ 5 + 16
Line 4
42 ÷ 21
Line 5
2
To simplify any expression we use order of operation
Line 1 is 7(6) ÷ 5 + 42
Order of operation is PEMDAS
First we start with parenthesis
so we multiply 7(6) in line 2
7*6- 42
So Line 2 is 42 ÷ 5 + 42
Hence there is a mistake in Line 2
Answer:
C. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
-4/3x-6=-26
The first step is to add 6 to each side
-4/3x-6+6=-26+6
-4/3x =-20
Now multiply by -3/4 to isolate x.
-3/4 * -4/3x = -3/4 * -20
x = 60/4
x = 15
Answer:
35%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Initial price= $80
Final price= $52
% decrease= initial-final/initial*100
% decrease= 80-52/80*100
% decrease= 28/80*100
% decrease=0.35*100
= 35%
Hence the decrease is 35%

Answer:
21.25 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
In miles per second, the speed of the jet is ...
(720 mi/h)/(3600 s/h) = 1/5 mi/s
The speed of the sound is the same:
(1 mi)/(5 s) = 1/5 mi/s
Then the rate of closure between the airplane and the sound is ...
(1/5 mi/s) +(1/5 mi/s) = 2/5 mi/s
To find the time required to close a gap of 8 1/2 miles, we can use the relation ...
time = distance/speed
time = (8.5 mi)/(0.4 mi/s) = 21.25 s
The pilot will hear the thunder 21.25 seconds after the flash.
