Answer: 0.249

Step-by-step explanation: To write a percent as a decimal, first remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100.

We can think of 24.9% as the ratio 24.9 to 100 or 24.9 ÷ 100.

Remember that dividing by 100 moves the decimal point two places to the left so 24.9 ÷ 100 will move the decimal point two places to the left which would give us .249 or 0.249.

Therefore, 24.9% can be written as the decimal 0.249.

3y^2 • 4x^2y • 5x = (3*4*5) * (y^2 * y) * (x^2*x) = 60 * y^3 * x^3 = 60 (xy)^3

where ((y^2 * y)) adding the powers in case of multiplication

and also for this: (x^2*x)

If y varies directly as x and y-21 when x is 7, find x when y = -5.

klasskru [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y varies directly as x:

$\therefore \: y = kx..(1) \\ (k = constant \: of \: proportionality) \\ at \: y = 21 \: and \: x = 7 \\ 21 = k \times 7 \\ k = \frac{21}{7} = 3 \\ plugging \: k = 3 \: in \: equation \: (1) \\ y = 3x..(2) \\ plugging \: \: y = - 5 \: in \: (2)\\ - 5 = 3x \\ x = \frac{ - 5}{3} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \huge \red{ \boxed{x = - \frac{5}{3} }}$
