<h2>Answer:</h2>

Each month, 2.8% Ramon's earnings are spent on electricity.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

You know, that 100 percent are his earnings - $1,880

Now, you need to find out, how much is 1%. You do that by dividing $1,880 by 100.

Now you have to divide the amount he pays on electricity - $53.3 by one percent of his earnings - $18.8

So, now you know, that he pays exactly 2.83511% of his earnings on electricity. But from assignment, you know, that it has to be rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent. The number is 2.8351. So we will round it to 2.8% ,because 3 is rounded down. (https://www.mathsisfun.com/rounding-numbers.html)

100% = $1,880

$1,880/100 = $18.8

$53.3/$18.8 = 2.83511

2.83511% ≈ 2.8%

A star in the sky appears to move by 12 arcseconds over the course of 6 months. Convert this number into first areminutes then d
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Given :A star in the sky appears to move by 12 arc seconds over the course of 6 months.

To Find :Convert this number into first arc minutes then degrees.

Solution:

60 arc seconds = 1 arc minute

1 arc seconds = \frac{1}{60} arc minute

12 arc seconds = \frac{1}{60} \times 12 arc minute

12 arc seconds = \frac{1}{5} arc minute

So, 12 arc seconds = \frac{1}{5} arc minute

Now convert it into degrees

60 arc minute = 1 degree

1 arc minute = \frac{1}{60} degree

\frac{1}{5} arc minute = \frac{1}{60} \times \frac{1}{5} degree

\frac{1}{5} arc minute = \frac{1}{300} degrees

12 arc seconds = \frac{1}{300} degrees

If y varies directly with x, and y = 2 when x = −4, what is the value of y when x = 20
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

y = - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 2 when x = - 4, that is

2 = - 4k ( divide both sides by - 4 )

= k, that is

k = -  

y = -  x ← equation of variation

When x = 20, then

y = -  × 20 = - 10
