Mathematics

Aneli [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

7% of 150= 10.5 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

150/x=100/7

(150/x)*x=(100/7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

150=14.2857142857*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.2857142857) to get x

150/14.2857142857=x

10.5=x

x=10.5

now we have:

7% of 150=10.5

Simplify: √27 A. 3√3 B. 9√3 C. 3√9 D. 5√3
blagie [28]
To simplify square root 27, find two numbers that equal 27. But also, one of the numbers should be a perfect square (such as 4, 9, 36...). 

9*3=27. The square root of 9 is 3, which makes it a perfect square. So, the answer is A.

A sum of money is divided amongst Farah, Shaiyara and Zahin in the ratio 10: 7: 5. If
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answers:

  • Total amount of money =  220 dollars
  • Amount Farah gets = 100 dollars

==========================================================

Explanation:

  • F = amount Farah gets
  • S = amount Shaiyara gets
  • Z = amount Zahin gets

The money is divided in the ratio 10:7:5

This means that

  • F = 10x
  • S = 7x
  • Z = 5x

for some positive real number x.

Since Shaiyara gets $20 more than Zahin, we can say,

S = Z+20

Let's plug in S = 7x and Z = 5x and solve for x

S = Z+20

7x = 5x+20

7x-5x = 20

2x = 20

x = 20/2

x = 10

Therefore,

  • F = 10x = 10*10 = 100
  • S = 7x = 7*10 = 70
  • Z = 5x = 5*10 = 50

The ratio F:S:Z becomes 100:70:50 which reduces fully to 10:7:5 after dividing all three parts by the GCF 10.

The total sum of money shared is 100+70+50 = 220 dollars and Farah gets $100 of that total.

What are the y and x intercepts for -5x-4y=10
KatRina [158]

Answer:

x-intercept(s) = (-2,0)

y-intercept(s) = (0, - 5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the x-intercept, substitute in  0  for  y  and solve for  x . To find the y-intercept, substitute in  0  for  x  and solve for  y .

x-intercept(s) = (-2,0)

y-intercept(s) = (0, - 5/2)

An atlas contains a map of Ohio. The table shows data from the key on the map.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The graph is attached

b) The table shows a linear relationship between x and y.

A linear equation is in the form y = mx + b, where y is a dependent variable, x is an independent variable, m is the rate of change (slope) and b is the value of y when x = 0.

x represent the distance on map in mm and y represent the actual distance in mile. The table (x, y) has the points (10, 25) and (20, 50). The equation is given by:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-25=\frac{50-25}{20-10} (x-10)\\\\y-25=2.5(x-10)\\\\y-25=2.5x-25\\\\y=2.5x

The slope m = 2.5. This means that for every 1 mm on the map, the actual distance increases by 2.5 miles.

c) y = 2.5x

put x = 48 mm

y = 2.5(48)

y = 120 miles

The actual distance between Toledo and Columbus is 120 miles

d) y = 2.5x

Put y = 225 miles

225 = 2.5x

x = 225/2.5

x = 90 mm

The distance on map between Cincinnati and Cleveland is about 90 mm.
