Answer:

Percent of rise of a new truck on a used truck  = 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the percentage of saved money if Jason buying a used truck.

Given:

Price of the used truck = $34,000

Price of the new truck = $40,000

We need to find the percent of rise Jason saves on a used truck rather than buying a new truck

Solution:

Using a percentage formula.

percentage\ cost = \frac{(100-x)}{100}\times Original\ cost

Substitute Percentage cost = 34,000 and Original cost = 40,000 in above formula.

34000 = \frac{(100-x)}{100}\times 40000

34000 = (100-x)\times 400                    (\frac{40000}{100}=400)

Using cross multiplication rule.

(100-x)=\frac{34000}{400}

85=100-x

x = 100-85

x = 15%

Therefore, Jason used 15% rise of a new truck for a used truck.

1) To get equation B from equation A, we will add a quantity to the left hand side of equation A. The correct option is A. Add/subtract a quantity to/from only one side

2) The equations are not equivalent. They do not have the same solution

<h3>Equations</h3>

From the question, we are to determine how we can get equation B from equation A

From the given information,

A. 5x - 2 + x = x - 4

B. 5x + x = x - 4

From above, we can observe that to get equation B from equation A, we will add 2 to the left hand side of equation A

That is

5x - 2 + 2 + x = x + 4     →     5x + x = x + 4

Hence, to get equation B from equation A, we will add a quantity to the left hand side of equation A. The correct option is A. Add/subtract a quantity to/from only one side

2) The equations are not equivalent. They do not have the same solution

Why i the product of two rational number alway rational?
ella [17]

The product of two rational numbers is always rational because (ac/bd​) is the ratio of two integers, making it a rational number.

We need to prove that the product of two rational numbers is always rational. A rational number is a number that can be stated as the quotient or fraction of two integers : a numerator and a non-zero denominator.

Let us consider two rational numbers, a/b and c/d. The variables "a", "b", "c", and "d" all represent integers. The denominators "b" and "d" are non-zero. Let the product of these two rational numbers be represented by "P".

P = (a/b)×(c/d)

P = (a×c)/(b×d)

The numerator is again an integer. The denominator is also a non-zero integer. Hence, the product is a rational number.

The Big Bad Baseball team had lots of great hitters. Sue had a .426 batting average. Heidi had 12 hits in a 15 times a bat. Sele
Mashcka [7]
For this case, what you must do is pass all the averages to the same unit of measurement in order to make the comparison between the three batters.
 We have then:
 Sue = 0.426
 Heidi = (12/15) = 0.8
 Selena = (47.5 / 100) = 0.475
 answer
 the highest batting average was for Heidi with an average of 0.8
