Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x * 450 = 18.5                     This means that 450 * a % = 18.50. Divide by 450

x * 450/450 = 18.5/450

x = 0.041111

Multiply by 100 to get a percent.

0. 0411 * 100 = 4.11 %

Answer:

4.0217391 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The original prices times the tax rate  is equal to the tax

460 * tax rate = 18.50

Divide each side by 460

tax rate = 18.50/460

tax rate =.040217391

writing as a percent ( multiply by 100)

4.0217391 %

Answer:

50=(3x)x

Step-by-step explanation:

50=(3x)x. The question is only asking for the inequality of the problem. Since the area of a rectangle is L x W, you would write L as 3x and W as x, and since the area of the rectangle is given, you can set the area as 50.

As you can see I keep getting questions wrong.... Can you answer the last question?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

  y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...

  • all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
  • y is a factor of every exponent

The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

__

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.

  (3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)

  3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)

  3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)

  -5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3

  14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y

  y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution

______

The rules of exponents we used are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

  1/a^b = a^-b

Feliz [49]

Answer:

A)

x=  the number of ride tickets

y=  the total cost of admission plus how many ride tickets a person purchases

B)

y= 1.25x + 9.5

C)

It is a$1.25 per ticket for the rides at the fair, so it would be 1.25 multiplied by the amount of tickets that are purchased (x). Spencer bought 17 tickets, so 17x1.25= 21.25 and it says that he spent a total of $30.75 at the fair, so 30.75-21.25=9.5, so that means the cost of admission is $9.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps!

ABCD is a parallelogram. Find the value of x, y and z.​
expeople1 [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

X+100=180(linear pair)

X=180-100

X=80

30+y+x=180(sum of angle of triangle)

Y=180-110

Y=70
