Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for What is 8 percent of 1500:

8 percent *1500 =

(8:100)*1500 =

(8*1500):100 =

12000:100 = 120

Now we have: 8 percent of 1500 = 120

Question: What is 8 percent of 1500?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 1500.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.

Step 3: From step 1 above, 1500 = 100%

Step 4: Similarly, x = 8%

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

1500 = 100% (1).

x = 8% (2)

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

<u>1500</u>    =  <u>100%</u>

 x               8%

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

<u>  x  </u>    =    <u>  8  </u>

1500        100

x = 120

Therefore, 8% of 1500 is 120

Answer:

185 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is possible to model an equation for this, such that

0.10x + 14.80 = 0.08x + 18.50

where x represents the number of minutes.

Then, you solve for x:

0.10x + 14.80 = 0.08x + 18.50 \\ 0.02x = 3.70 \\ x =  \frac{3.70}{ 0.02}  \\ x = 185

How do i express 11/20 as a percent??
Reptile [31]
So since a percent is out of 100 you would put 11/20 and right an equal sign next to that and the bottom fraction would be x/100. Then you would find the relationship between 100 and 20. 20 times 5 is 100 so then 11 times 5 is 55. 55% is your answer

Geometry: complete this proof, ASAP!!!
Tresset [83]

Answer:

By definition, angles A and 1 are corresponding angles and angles B and 1 are consecutive angles. By the corresponding angles postulate, angles A and 1 are congruent, and by the consecutive angles theorem, angles B and 1 are supplementary. By the definition of supplementary angles, measures of angle B and 1 add up to 180 degrees (m<B + m<1 = 180). By definition of congruent angles, angles A and 1 have same measurement (m<A = m<1). By substitution property of equality, measures of angles A and B add up to 180 degrees (m<A + m<B = 180). By definition of supplementary angles, angles A and B are supplementary.

Vectors! Please help! This is the last question OF MY WHOLE SEMESTER! I've tried it so many times and can't get it right. :(
Feliz [49]

Pictures always help; see the one I've attached for reference.

Call the first vector (from HQ to the supply drop) u and the second vector (from supply drop to medics) v. We then want to find w, the vector from the medics to HQ, which corresponds to the vector -(u + v). (This is because u + v is the vector pointing from HQ to the medics; we're talking about the one in the opposite direction.)

Write the vectors in horizontal/vertical component form:

u = (125 km) (cos 235º x + sin 235º y) = (-71.70 x - 102.39 y) km

v = (75 km) (cos 110º x + sin 110º y) = (-25.65 x + 70.48 y) km

Why these angles?

  • "55 degrees south of west" is 235º; due west is 180º from the positive horizontal axis, and you add 55º to this
  • "20 degrees west of north" is 110º; due north is 90º, so add 20º to this

Add the vectors:

u + v = (-97.35 x - 31.92 y) km

Multiply by -1 to get the vector w:

w = -(u + v) = (97.35 x + 31.92 y) km

The distance covered by this vector is equal to its magnitude:

||w|| = √((97.35 km)^2 + (31.92 km)^2) = 102.45 km

The direction <em>θ</em> is given by

tan<em>θ</em> = (31.92 km)/(97.35 km)  ==>  <em>θ</em> = 18.15º
