Answer: $\frac{9.9}{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{24.75}{70} is the fraction.

First for convenience, let us convert the decimal into a whole number by multiplying both numerator and denominator by 100. This is not necessary and the final answer will be the same but doing this step will make it easier to divide.

{\frac{24.75 * 100}{70 * 100}} = \frac{2475}{7000}

Now, since it is not in its lowest form we need to simplify it.

For ease, we can find the HCF of 2475 and 7000 which is 25 and divide both numerator and denominator with it.

After simplifying, the final answer is \frac{99}{280}.

However we need to put back the decimal places.

Final answer is  $\frac{9.9}{28}

The value of an antique mirror increased by 40% since juliet bought it. Its value is now $350. What amount did juliet originally
labwork [276]
The problem states that the current value is $350 and that is the original price plus 40%, that is $350 is the 140%, the question is how much is the 100%, or the original price, lets use a rule of three, simple, direct proportion:
140% --------> $350
100% --------> x
x = (100)(350)/140
x = 250
that is the original price, $250

What is the solution for the system of equations?
taurus [48]
Rearrange the first equation2x + y = 20take away 2x from both sidesy = 20 - 2x substitute this y value into the second equation6x - 5(20 - 2x) = 126x -100 +10x = 12add 100 to both sides6x + 10x = 11216x = 112divide both sides by 16 x = 7Substitute this x value into the first equation to get y.2(7) + y = 2014 + y = 20take away 14 from both sidesy = 6
So, y = 6 and x = 7

If you are describing transformations with respect to the graph of f(x) = x:

f(x) = x has no transformation

g(x) = (x+2) - 3 is the graph of f(x) translated 2 units left and 3 units down

2(h(x) = x-1) is the graph of f(x) vertically expanded by a factor of 2 and then translated 1 unit right

d(x) = 1/2x + 2 is the graph of f(x) vertically compressed by a factor of 1/2 and then translated 2 units up

Suppose Sally has $28.00 in her bank account and starts saving $18.25 every week. Her friend Suzy has $161.00 in her bank accoun
Elza [17]

a.

Sally has $28.00 in her bank account and starts saving $18.25 every week.

Let x represent the number of weeks from when he have $28.00 in her account.

and y represent the amount in her account at week x;

We can write the function of the case as;

y=mx+b

where m is the amount she saves every week, and b the initial amount in her account.

\begin{gathered} m=\text{ \$18.25} \\ b=\text{ \$28.00} \end{gathered}

So, the function will be;

y=18.25x+28

b.

Her friend Suzy has $161.00 in her bank account and is withdrawing $15 every week.​

Using the same rule as in a above;

\begin{gathered} m=-15\text{ (withdrawing is negative)} \\ b=161 \end{gathered}

The function will be;

y=-15x+161

c.

The graph of the two functions is shown below;

d.

The point where the two lines intersect is shown in the graph above.

The point is at;

(4,101)

Which is at week 4 and balance $101.

e.

The point at which they intersect is the point where they both have the same values.

It is the week when both Sally and Suzy have the same amount in there account.

So, at the fourth week (week 4) Sally and Suzy both have $101 in their account
