Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<u><em>5%</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

38/40 can be simplified

19/20

Then you would multiply it by 5.

95/100

Then you would subtract 100-95

5

Therefore, your answer would be <em><u>5%</u></em>.

HELP WITH NUMBER 13 please

Answer: QE = 10

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, it's important to understand that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

This means that E is the midpoint of diagonal SQ.

So we can setup the equation x² + 9x = 4x + 6.

To solve this polynomial equation, set it equal to zero first.

So we have x² + 5x - 6 = 0 and we get (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0

when we factor the left side of the equation.

So this means that x = -6 or x = 1.

However, -6 will give us a negative length when we plug it in

to find QE so this will not work.

However, plugging 1 in will give us 10 as a length so QE = 10.

Calculate the average (arithmetic mean) of the list of numbers shown in the table. (rounded to the nearest tenth A) 10.1 B) 11.0
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add up all the numbers we get 111 then we divide it by 10 which gives us 11.1. since we have no value to round to the tenths place, the answer stays the same.

If it takes you 40 minutes to go 20 miles downstream and then 60 minutes on the way back, what is the speed of the current?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Speed of Current = 5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We know distance formula,

D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

T is time

If we let speed of boat (assume) to be "x" and speed of current to be "c"

Then downstream rate is (with current) = x + c

Upstream rate is (against current) = x - c

40 mins to go 20 miles downstream, that means:

D = RT

20 = (x + c)(40)

and

60 minutes to go upstream, 20 miles, that means:

D = RT

20 = (x - c)(60)

Simplifying first equation:

40x + 40c = 20

Simplifying second equation:

60x - 60c = 20

Multiplying first equation by 60, we get:

60 * [40x + 40c = 20] = 2400x + 2400c = 1200

Multiplying second equation by 40, we get:

40 * [60x - 60c = 20] = 2400x - 2400c = 800

Now we add up both these equations:

2400x + 2400c = 1200

2400x - 2400c = 800

----------------------------------

4800x = 2000

x = 2000/4800 = 5/12

We need speed of current, that is "c", so we plug in the value of x into first equation and solve for c:

40x + 40c = 20\\40(\frac{5}{12}) + 40c = 20\\\frac{50}{3}+40c=20\\40c=20-\frac{50}{3}\\40c=\frac{10}{3}\\c=\frac{1}{12}

Speed of Current = 1/12 miles per minute

Since there is 60 minutes in an hours, that would be:

(1/12) * 60 = 5 miles per hour

Speed of Current = 5 miles per hour

Solve for the unknown variable 2/5(3x-4)=-4
Elanso [62]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 (3 x - 4))/5 = -4

Multiply both sides of (2 (3 x - 4))/5 = -4 by 5/2:

(5×2 (3 x - 4))/(2×5) = -4×5/2

5/2×2/5 = (5×2)/(2×5):

(5×2)/(2×5) (3 x - 4) = -4×5/2

5/2 (-4) = (5 (-4))/2:

(5×2 (3 x - 4))/(2×5) = (-4×5)/2

(5×2 (3 x - 4))/(2×5) = (2×5)/(2×5)×(3 x - 4) = 3 x - 4:

3 x - 4 = (-4×5)/2

(-4)/2 = (2 (-2))/2 = -2:

3 x - 4 = 5×-2

5 (-2) = -10:

3 x - 4 = -10

Add 4 to both sides:

3 x + (4 - 4) = 4 - 10

4 - 4 = 0:

3 x = 4 - 10

4 - 10 = -6:

3 x = -6

Divide both sides of 3 x = -6 by 3:

(3 x)/3 = (-6)/3

3/3 = 1:

x = (-6)/3

The gcd of -6 and 3 is 3, so (-6)/3 = (3 (-2))/(3×1) = 3/3×-2 = -2:

Answer:  x = -2
