Evaluate y5 + x(-7)<br> When x = 2, y = -5
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, first we turn the variables into into the actual values:

The equation will look like this:

(2)5 + (-5)(-7)

Now its easier to solve!  Lets solve (2)5!

2 * 5 = 10

The equation looks like:

10 + (-5)(-7)  

We will also solve (-5)(-7). Remember that a negative number times a negative number is positive!

-5 * -7 = 35

Lets finish the rest:

10 + 35 = 45.          

Hope this is correct and have a nice day!

Express 0.64 as a fraction in lowest term? <br><br> A. 64/10<br> B.5/32<br> C.4/5<br> D.16/25
Elanso [62]

In its decimal form, it says  ' 64 / 100 '.

In order to change it to its lowest terms, we look to see whether the
numerator and denominator have a common factor greater than ' 1 '. 
If they do, then we can divide numerator and denominator by their
common factor, and have the same fraction in lower terms.

The common factors of  64  and  100  are  1,  2, and  4 .
We could divide top and bottom by 2, but that wouldn't finish the job. 
It's always best to divide them by their <u>greatest</u> common factor, and
once you do that, you're done.

Dividing the numerator and denominator both by  4,
we get the fraction in its lowest terms:

         0.64  =  64/100  =  <em>16/25</em>

A music store buys instruments and then sells them for 30%more than they paid.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The store will sell the guitar for $58.50

Step-by-step explanation:

$45 * 1.3 = $58.50

Since the price they bought it for is $45 and the markup percent is 30%, we multiply $45 by 1.3, which will give us $58.50.
