Answer:

80 gifts

Step-by-step explanation:

Maddison hid 12 of her sister's birthday gifts around the house. If this was 15% of the gifts, how many total gifts did her sister have?

Let the Total gifts that her sister has be represented by x

Hence:

15% of x = 12

15/100 × x = 12

15x /100 = 12

Cross Multiply

15x = 100 × 12

15x = 1200

x = 1200/15

x = 80 gifts

Hence, the total gifts her sister has is 80 gifts

Answer:

80 total gifts

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Maddison hid 12 of her sister's birthday gifts

we are told that 12 gift is 15% of the total gifts

let the total gifts be x

so

=15/100*x= 12

=0.15x= 12

divide both sides by 0.15

x= 12/0.15

x=80 total gifts

Write an explicit formula for an , the nth term of the sequence 29, 19, 9, ....
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

a_{n} = 39 - 10n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is

19 - 29 = 9 - 19 = - 10

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term ( expicit formula )

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 29 and d = - 10 , then

a_{n} = 29 - 10(n - 1) = 29 - 10n + 10 = 39 - 10n

The x-axis contains the base of an equilateral triangle RST. The origin is at S. Vertex T has coordinates (2h, 0) and the y-coor
frosja888 [35]
For the first part remember that an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal & all three internal angles are each 60°. <span>So x-coordinate of R is in the middle of ST = (1/2)(2h-0) = h
And for the second </span><span> since this is an equilateral triangle the x coordinate of point R is equal to the coordinate of the midpoint of ST, which you figured out in the previous answer. Hope this works for you</span>
