Answer:

n = 16 - 7

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 3, the fraction becomes 3/4."

Cross multiply

4(n+3) = 3d

4n + 12 = 3d

"If the denominator is decreased by 7, the fraction becomes 1."

Cross multiply

1n = d - 7

n = (d-7)

In the 1st equation replace n with d-7

4(d-7) + 12 = 3d

4d - 28 + 12 = 3d

4d - 3d - 16 = 0

d = 16 is the denominator

then n = 16 - 7

n = 9

9/16 =  the original equation

A person on a moving sidewalk 21 feet in 7 senconds the moving sidewalk has a lenght of 180 feet. How long will it take to move
aliina [53]

Answer:

He will take 60 seconds to move from one end of the sidewalk to other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A person on a moving sidewalk,

21 feet in 7 seconds

Then 180 feet

To Find:

Total time =?

Solution:

Speed:

Speed is defined as the rate of distance covered in per unit time.

It is given as

\textrm{Speed }=\dfrac{\textrm{Distance}}{Time}

Substituting the given values we get

\textrm{Speed }=\dfrac{21}{7}=3\ m/s

Now, With this speed if he walk 180 feet then the time is

\textrm{Time}=\dfrac{\textrm{Distance}}{Speed}

Substituting  Speed and Distance we get

\textrm{Time}=\dfrac{180}{3}=60\\\\Time=60\ s

He will take 60 seconds to move from one end of the sidewalk to other.

Variances indicate a.the cause of the variance. b.who is responsible for the variance. c.when the variance should be investigate
Nezavi [6.7K]

Option c. is the correct answer.

When the variance should be investigated.

A variance is the difference between a result's actual value and what was anticipated or budgeted. Variances can be either positive or negative. When the actual is higher than the projected or budgeted amount, a favorable variance occurs. The variance is unfavorable when actuals fall short of the amounts allocated in the budget. A variance therefore shows whether or not the actual performance is proceeding as expected.

While,

Option a. is inaccurate. As, the cause of the variance can vary, depending on factors like changes in delivery costs, market costs, production techniques, the use of subpar materials, seasonal factors, or even a simple mistake. Therefore, additional research and subsequent actions are needed to identify the cause of the variance. The cause of a variance cannot be identified by the variance itself.

Option b. is inaccurate. A variance only shows the discrepancy between the anticipated and actual amounts. It makes no mention of who is to blame for the deviation.

Option d. is inaccurate. After variances are identified, one of the most important steps is to investigate them. When actual performances significantly deviate from anticipated outcomes, variations are typically investigated.

B. 90
Because, a circle is 360 degrees total. Angle FG is 130 degrees. Angle GD is 90 degrees. It's remaining 2 so.... 130+90=220 But every circle is 360 degrees so... 360-220=140. And ED looks similar to GD which is 90 degrees

KatRina [158]

Answer:

X=0.92

Step-by-step explanation:

X-\frac{1}{2} = 0.42\\

Converting fraction into decimal.

X-0.5=0.42

Adding both side by 0.5

X-0.5+0.5= 0.42+0.5\\\\X= 0.92
