Answer:
106.25
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 85(1.25) = 106.25
I'm not sure how to show the work, i just put it into a calculator
18 inches or 1 foot and 6 inches
multiply 3 feet by 12 and add two to get the width of the door in inches then subtract 20 inches from it to get the difference
It is the first choice. All you have to do is isolate A from 2A so you would divide by 2 and get A=bh/2
1. <span>Set up the long division.
</span>
<span>245/7</span>
2. <span>Calculate 700 ÷ 245, which is 2 with a remainder of 210.
</span>
<span><span>0.02</span><span>245/7.</span><span>4.90</span><span>2.10</span></span>
3. <span>Bring down 0, so that 2100 is large enough to be divided by 245.
</span>
<span><span>0.02</span><span>245|/.</span><span>4.90</span><span>2.100</span></span>
4. <span>Calculate 2100 ÷ 245, which is 8 with a remainder of 140.
</span>
<span><span>0.028</span><span>245|/.</span><span>4.90</span><span>2.100</span><span>1.960</span><span>140</span></span>
5. <span>Bring down 0, so that 1400 is large enough to be divided by 245.
</span>
<span><span>0.028</span><span>245/7.</span><span>4.90</span><span>2.100</span><span>1.960</span><span>1400</span></span>
6. <span>Calculate 1400 ÷ 245, which is 5 with a remainder of 175.
</span>
<span><span>0.0285</span><span>245|7.</span><span>4.90</span><span>2.100</span><span>1.960</span><span>1400</span><span>1225</span><span>175</span></span>
7. <span>Therefore, 7 divided by 245 approximately equals 0.0285
</span><span><span>7÷245≈0.0285</span></span>
8. <span>Simplify
</span><span><span><span>0.0285 <------------- Answer :) </span></span>

Like all problems that involve images within the question, we should definitely try to draw this out. In the picture above, I have done this.
Now, we can see that this is just a simple proportion problem. For every 2.5 cm of height of the flower, we are 2 cm from the opening, or aperture. For every 20 cm of height, how far are we? We can set up the problem like this:
20 ............2.5
-------- = ---------
...x ............. 2
where x is the unknown distance to the aperture from the flower. Now, we just need to get x by itself. A typical way of solving something like this is by doing "butterfly multiplication" which is really just a shortcut haha. Anyway, I can rewrite that equation ^ as:
20×2 = 2.5 × x
Then, to solve for x, we would divide both sides by 2.5. (If you don't know why that is, please let me know and I'll elaborate).
We would then have:
20×2
------- = x
2.5
Which then simplifies to:
x = 16
Try using the same logic for your second question, and if you get stuck, I'd be happy to help! please let me know if any of this doesn't make sense. :)
