Answer: 2 inches, 3 inches, or 3.125 and 2.083
Explanations:
The simplest way is to take 20% of the 2.5 inches and go that much above & below 2.5 inches.
2.5 x 20% = 2.5 x 0.20 = 0.5
So 2.5 - 0.5 = 2 inches was predicted
And 2.5 + 0.5 = 3 inches was predicted.
The more complicated way is to see number + 20% of that number = 2.5, and what number - 20% = 2.5.
Which solution sounds more like what you’re doing in class right now?
If it’s the more complicated way:
0.8x = 2.5 (80% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 3.125 inches was predicted
1.2x = 2.5 (120% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 2.083 inches was predicted
Sorry, this is probably confusing. Let me know what questions you have.
Answer:
4/6 or 2/3...............
Answer:
(5, 10 ) ( 2, 25 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add the lengths of two sides, 12 and 14, you will get 28. Using the above theorem, the third side cannot be greater than or equal to 28. Therefore, the greatest possible whole-number length of the unknown side is 27.
Answer:
x=5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of ABCD=85
The perimeter is everything around the outside added together.
Form an equation:
3x+4+4x+6x-11+5x-7=85
Collect the like terms:
Like terms are terms that have the same powers and coefficient.
3x+4x+6x+5x=18x
4-11-7= -14
Put it back into an equation:
18x-14=85
Do inverse operations to find out what x is:
85+14=99
18x=99
99÷18=5.5 (we divide because, in algebra, when a number is next to a letter, it means times and as we want the inverse, you would have to divide)
x=5.5
Hope this helps :)
