Answer:
w=7.
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 7 on both sides of the equation.
.5 is the equivalent decimal for 1/2<span />
Answer:
2 385/3913
i think..
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, all sides are proportional by the same scale factor.
The relationship between the bases 32 and 8 is 4 (32/8 = 4). This means that the smaller triangle need to be multiplied by a scale factor 4 to result in the bigger triangle.
This means that 4x + 12 is 4 times greater than 15.
The equation to solve for x can be written as:
4x + 12 = 4*15
Now just solve for x as u normally would
4x + 12 = 60
(Subtract twelve from both sides)
4x = 48
(Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x)
x = 12
I hope this somewhat helped :)
Was my explanation clear enough?
Finding a price that is 30% lower than $2075 is the same as finding a price that is 70% of $2075.
That means all we need to do is calculate what is 70% of $2075.
Convert 70% into decimal form which is 0.70.
Next, multiply $2075 by 0.70.
$2075*0.70 = $1452.50
The price the travel agent found was $1452.50
Note: If you don't know how to multiply by decimals you can multiply $2075 by 7 than divide the result by 10 (move the decimal point one place to the left).
