Answer:
(A) -2, 3/7, 1/2, 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers are in increasing order when they are listed left-to-right as they appear on the number line.
The only numbers that may give you trouble are 3/7 = 6/14 and 1/2 = 7/14.
The negative number is less than any positive number. 1.2 is greater than any fraction that is less than 1.
The correct ordering is found in choice A.
Answer:
b+6
Problem:
If the average of b and c is 8, and d=3b-4, what is the average of c and d in terms of b?
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given (b+c)/2=8 and d=3b-4.
We are asked to find (c+d)/2 in terms of variable, b.
We need to first solve (b+c)/2=8 for c.
Multiply both sides by 2: b+c=16.
Subtract b on both sides: c=16-b
Now let's plug in c=16-b and d=3b-4 into (c+d)/2:
([16-b]+[3b-4])/2
Combine like terms:
(12+2b)/2
Divide top and bottom by 2:
(6+1b)/1
Multiplicative identity property applied:
(6+b)/1
Anything divided by 1 is that anything:
(6+b)
6+b
b+6
Answer:
960
Step-by-step explanation:
The simple interest formula is the following:
I = P*r*t
Where I is the interest generated after t years, P is the inicial value and r is the rate of interest.
In this case, we have that the inicial value is P = 4000, the rate of interest is r = 8% = 0.08 and the amount of time invested is t = 3 years.
So, the interest will be:
I = 4000*0.08*3 = 960
Answer:
3 option
Step-by-step explanation:
X=t-yz and we are asked to solve for y so, subtract t from both sides
x-t=-yz divide both sides by -z
(x-t)/(-z)=y
y=(x-t)/(-z) multiply the numerator and denominator by -1
y=(t-x)/z
