What is the distance from W to X?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Flauer [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer is 35 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the distance from W to Y is x miles

Distance from W to X is 70 % of x =0.7*x

Given distance from X to Y is 15 miles.

x-15=0.7x

x-0.7x=15

0.3x=15

x=15/0.3

x=50miles

Thus the distance from W to Y is 50 miles and the distance from W to X is 50-15=35 miles

Without calculating, explain how many decimal places are in the product 0.6 X0.4 X 1.9. Rewrite the expression as the product of
Vladimir79 [104]
There's only one decimal point in the answer. This is quite obvious. Regardless of whether or not your adding, subtracting, dividing, or multiplying, there's really only going to be one decimal, ever. This doesn't change, However, what DOES change are decimal PLACES.

Looking at the problem, you see both .6 and .4 are placed to the right of the decimal, otherwise known as the tenths place (1/10). 

Looking at 1.9, you see you have one number (1) placed to the left of the decimal, the ones place, and another number placed to the right of the decimal (9), in the tenths place. 

Well, this is simple. You can look and see that your multiplying fractions against a whole number, which will of course make this whole number even smaller. By how much though??

Well, you can really tell this by looking at how MANY numbers are behind the decimal. You have .9, .4, and .6

That's 3 numbers behind the decimal place. This may not help you solve the problem itself, but this tells you here (ignoring the 1, that will be taken out immediately while solving and turned into a 0) that you will have 3 numbers placed from the tenths place all the way to the thousandths place.

Basically, this tells you that you'll have three decimal places to the right of the decimal. 

As for rewriting your problem to better show this, that's simple too.

All you have to do is simple multiplication, just in the tenths place. How? You know that 6*4 (referring to .6 and .4) is 24, that means that .6*.4 will be .24

How does this support your answer before? .24 has TWO numbers to the right of the decimal. That's TWO decimal places. With the .9 in 1.9, that's still THREE decimal places to the right of the decimal, and your answer would be the same.

So, here's it re-written.
1.9*.24=X

~Hope this helps!

Solve the following equation for X. Round your answer to four decimal places.
strojnjashka [21]

ANSWER

x = 1.2226

EXPLANATION

To solve this equation we have to apply the property of the logarithm of the base,

\log _bb=1

Thus, we can apply the natural logarithm - whose base is e, to both sides of the equation,

\ln e^{4x}=\ln 133

Now we apply the property of the logarithm of a power,

\log a^b=b\log a

In our equation,

\begin{gathered} 4x\ln e^{}=\ln 133 \\ 4x^{}=\ln 133 \end{gathered}

Then divide both sides by 4 and solve,

\begin{gathered} \frac{4x^{}}{4}=\frac{\ln 133}{4} \\ x\approx1.2226 \end{gathered}

The solution to this equation is x = 1.2226, rounded to four decimal places.
