A Galapagos tortoise can 1/5 mile in an hour. How many hours would it take the tortoise to walk 1/6?

Mathematics

Answer:

5/6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the number of hours it will take to walk 1/6 of a mile:

\frac{1/5}{1} = \frac{1/6}{x}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

1/5x = 1/6

x = 5/6

So, it will take the tortoise 5/6 hours to walk 1/6 of a mile

Solve for x. Evaluate and round your answer to 1 decimal place(tenths place). 10x=1200
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

<h2>x = 3.1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>{10}^{x}  = 1200</h3>

<u>To solve first take logarithm to both sides</u>

That's

<h3>log_{10}(10) ^{x}  =  log_{10}(1200)</h3><h3 /><h3>log_{10}(10)^{x}  = x log_{10}(10)</h3>

But

<h3>log_{10}(10)  = 1</h3>

So we have

x =  log_{10}(1200)

<u>Write 1200 as a number with the factor 100</u>

That's

1200 = 100 × 12

So we have

<h3>x =  log_{10}(100 \times 12)</h3>

<u>Using the rules of logarithms</u>

That's

<h3>log_{a}(x \times y)  =  log_{a}(x)  +  log_{a}(y)</h3>

Rewrite the expression

That's

<h3>x =  log_{10}(100)  +  log_{10}(12)</h3><h3 /><h3>x =  log_{10}(10)^{2}  +  log_{10}(12)</h3><h3>x = 2 log_{10}(10)  +  log_{10}(12)</h3><h3>log_{10}(10)  = 1</h3><h3 /><h3>x = 2 +  log_{10}(12)</h3>

x = 3.079

So we have the final answer as

<h3>x = 3.1 to one decimal place</h3>

Hope this helps you

Jess gave her a ​$4.90 tip. The tip was 7​% of the cost of the . Write an equation to find​ b, the cost of the Manicure
Naddik [55]
The formula to finding percentages is x% * y = c. So 7% of $4.90 is 0.343.
( 7% is 0.07)
