Answer:
35 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we multiply the amount by the percent and add them up to get the total amount times the percent
amount * percent + amount * percent = total amount * percent
4 * .20 + 12 * .40 = (4+12) * x
.8 + 4.8 = 16 x
Combine like terms
5.6 = 16x
Divide by 16
5.6/16 = 16x/16
.35 =x
35 percent
Answer:
12t -3 = 18t
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
d = your friends distance in miles
t = time in hrs
Your equation:
d - 3 = 18t (1)
Because you are 3 miles behind your friend
Your Friend's equation:
d = 12t (2)
To find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up with your friend,
Substitute (2) into (1)
d - 3 = 18t
12t - 3 = 18t
Equation to find the amount of time t it takes for you to catch up to your friend is 12t - 3 = 18t
Solving the equation
12t - 3 = 18t
Collect like terms
12t - 18t = 3
-6t = 3
t = 3/-6
= -0.5
t = 1/2 hour
Time can not be negative, therefore it will take 1/2 an hour to catch up with your friend
Answer:
6, 24, 96, 384
Step-by-step explanation:
a₁ = 6
a₂ = 4 x a₁ = 4 x 6 = 24
a₃ = 4 x a₂ = 4 x 24 = 96
a₄ = 4 x a₃ = 4 x 96 = 384
The answer is 44%
