5 0

Answer:

$35

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you need to know how what and how is percentage work.

Percentage(%) is a unit that equals to 1/100 or one hundredths. So, 7% will be equal to 7*1/100= 7/100. The commission is given based on the price of the boat. If the boat sold at $500 the commission will be:

commission= percentage * boat price

commission= 7/100 * $500

commission= $35

The 1992 world speed record for a bicycle (human-powered vehicle) was set by Chris Huber. His time through the measured 200 m st
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Speed of Chris Huber = 30.726 m/s

Time taken by Sam = 5.55 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance = 200 m

Time taken by Chris Huber = 6.509 s

Now,

Speed of Chris Huber = \frac{\textup{Distance}}{\textup{Time}}

or

Speed of Chris Huber = \frac{\textup{200 m}}{\textup{6.509 s}}

or

Speed of Chris Huber = 30.726 m/s

Speed of Sam = Speed of Chris Huber + 19.0 km/h

Now,

1 km/hr = 0.277778 m/s

thus,

19.0 km/h = 19.0 × 0.27 = 5.278 m/s

thus,

Speed of Sam = 30.726 + 5.278 = 36.004 m/s

therefore,

Time taken by Sam = \frac{\textup{Distance}}{\textup{Speed}}

or

Time taken by Sam = \frac{\textup{200}}{\textup{36.004}} = 5.55 s

Write in slope-intercept form an equation of the line that passes through the points (−5,−9) and (5,1).
o-na [289]

Answer:

y=x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (1--9)/(5--5)

m = (1+9)/(5+5)

    = 10/10

   = 1

The slope is 1

We have the slope and a point,so we can use point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-1 = 1(x-5)

y-1 = x-5

Add 1 to each side

y-1+1 = x-5+1

y=x-4

This is slope intercept form (y= mx+b)

If y is directly proportional to x and y is 12 when x = 10, what is the constant of variation?
Thepotemich [5.8K]
Answer:
constant of variation = 1.2

Explanation:
y varies directly with x means that as x increases, y increases and vice versa.
This can be translated into the following equation:
y = kx 
where k is the constant of pvariation.

We are given that:
y = 12 when x = 10.
Therefore, we will substitute with these values in the above equation and solve for k as follows:
y = kx
12 = k * 10
k = 12 / 10
k = 1.2

This means that the equation relating x and y is:
y = 1.2x
where 1.2 is the constant of variation.

Hope this helps :)
