Please help! i can’t write the equation on here so look at the picture.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

So if x= 1 , y= -20 , z = -5 , we just have to replace those values on the equation

$\frac{\sqrt{yz}}{(z-x)^{2} + y } =$ $\frac{\sqrt{(-20) * (-5)}}{(-5-1)^{2} + (-20) } =$ $\frac{\sqrt{100}}{(-6)^{2} -20 }$ $= \frac{10}{16} =\frac{5}{8}$

If you need to put 1 teaspoon in a 10 gallon tank how many teaspoons for a 8 gallon tank

alex41 [277]

Answer:

$0.8\ teaspoon$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of teaspoon

y ---> the number of gallons

we know that

$\frac{x}{y} =\frac{1}{10}$ ---> equation A

For y=8 gal

substitute the value of y in the equation A

so

$\frac{x}{8} =\frac{1}{10}$

solve for x

$x=\frac{1}{10}(8)$

$x=0.8\ teaspoon$

The price of silver went from $26.40 a troy ounce down to $17.16 a troy ounce during the past 6 months. This represents a decrea

const2013 [10]

There is decrease of 35% in the price of silver in the past 6 months.

<u> Solution: </u>

Given that

Price of silver went from $26.40 a troy ounce down to $17.16 a troy ounce during past 6 months need to represent this decrease in percentage

Price of silver before 6 months = initial price = $26.40

Price of silver now = current price = $17.16

Difference in price in 6 months = 26.40 – 17.16 = $9.24

$\text { Decrease in percentage }=\frac{\text { Diffrence in } 6 \text { months }}{\text { Initial price }} \times 100$

$\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{9.24}{26.4} \times 100} \\\\ {=0.35 \times 100=35 \%}\end{array}$

Hence there is decrease of 35% in the price of silver in the past 6 months.
