Answer:

The number of people who owned computers last year was 1500.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is as follows:

  • The number of people who own computer in a small town is 2400.
  • This is 60% more than the number who owned computer last year.

Let <em>X</em> denote the number of people who owned computer last year.

And <em>Y</em> denote the number of people who owned computer this year.

Then:

Y = X × (100% + 60%)

2400=X\times 1.60\\\\X=\frac{2400}{1.60}\\\\X=1500

Thus, the number of people who owned computers last year was 1500.

ABC has been translated 5 units to the right, as shown in the diagram. What is the length of ?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

(A) 15 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

A midsegment of a triangle is always 2 things:

Half the size of the bottom of the triangle (in this case AC)

Parallel to the bottom of the triangle.

Since ABC is an equilateral triangle, we know that EVERY side is 30cm, including AC.

So the midsegment of ABC, LM, must be 15 cm.

Hope this helped!

Bert has three times as much money as Ernie. If Ernie spends $6 on a new rubber ducky, then Bert will have five times as much mo
fomenos

Answer:

Bert has $45.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have no real strategy, except for that I used guess and check. How did I do this? Well, since I am in 5th Grade, I don't know algebra very well, so I made an organized chart and checked all the numbers that had to be a multiple and  could be divided equally by 5, 3 and when a third of that number was subtracted by 6, it was a fifth of the orginal number. Thats how I got 45.

Checking this answer:

It is always important to check your answer after finishing the problem, so this is how I checked my answer:

1. 45 divided by 3 = 15

2. 15 - 6 = 9, and 9 is 1/5 of 45

Bert has $45.

Since the change is to x, it will be a horizontal transformation.
When x is multiplied by a factor between 0 and 1, it stretches the function horizontally.
In this case, it stretches the function by a factor of 2 horizontally.
