Wouldn’t each section be worth 20%? Saying so 5 goes into 100 20 times.

Answer:

0.2 / 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 100% is 1.00 as a decimal, you take 5 and divide it, getting you 0.2 per section.

If you want to double check, you can multiply 0.2 and 5 to get 1.00

ace bike rentals rents bikes for $28 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 8 hours. Bart's bikes rents bikes for $30 per day. R

lyudmila [28]

Bart company charges a lower rate. It is lower by rate $ 0.5 per hour

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Ace bike rentals rents bikes for $28 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 8 hours

Also given that Bart's bikes rents bikes for $30 per day. Renters can keep the bike for 10 hours

To find: company that charges lower rate

Let us find the hourly rate of Ace and Bart

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{\text { Rental price }}{\text { total time in a day }}$

<em><u>Hourly rate of Ace company:</u></em>

Rental price = $28

total time in a day 8 hours

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{28}{8}=3.5$

So the hourly rate of Ace company is $ 3.5 per hour

<em><u>Hourly rate of Bart company:</u></em>

Rental price = $ 30

total time in a day 10 hours

$\text {hourly rate }=\frac{30}{10}=3$

So the hourly rate of Bart company is $ 3 per hour

<em><u>Comparing hourly rate of both companies</u></em>

Ace company is $ 3.5 per hour

Bart company is $ 3 per hour

Bart company < Ace company

3 < 3.5

Thus bart company charges a lower rate

<h3><em><u>How much lower?</u></em></h3>

hourly rate of Ace company - hourly rate of Bart company = 3.5 - 3 = 0.5

So, it is lower by rate $0.5 per hour

What is the value of p in the question below. 10x9/2x4= px 5

ycow [4]

Answer:

p = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$\frac{x^{a}}{x^{b}} = x^{a-b}$

$\frac{x^{9}}{x^{4}} = x^{9-4} = x^{5}$

10/2 = 5

Then

$\frac{10x^{9}}{2x^{4}} = 5x^{9-4} = 5x^{5}$

Finding p:

$5x^{5} = px^{5}$

$p = \frac{5x^{5}}{x^{5}}$

$p = 5$

Answer:

A. x = 58°

B. x = 10m

C. a = 44°

All approximated to nearest whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles given are right angled triangles. Therefore, we would apply the trigonometry functions to solve for each missing side and angle.

Recall: SOHCAHTOA

a. Adjacent = 4.8cm,

Hypotenuse = 9cm

Angle to find =x°

Thus, we would apply the following formula:

Cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Cos θ = 4.8/9 = 0.5333

θ = Cos-¹(0.5333) = 57.77

x ≈ 58° (to nearest whole number)

b. Opposite side = x

Hypothenuse = 40 m

Included angle = 14°

We would use:

Sine θ = opposite/hypothenuse

Sin (14) = x/40

Multiply both sides by 40

40*sin(14) = x

40*0.2419 = x

x = 9.676 = 10 m (to nearest whole number)

c. Opposite = 87mm

Adjacent = 91mm

θ = a°

We would use:

Tan θ = opposite/adjacent

Tan θ = 87/91

Tan θ = 0.9560

θ = tan-¹(0.9560)

θ = a = 43.71

a ≈ 44° (to nearest whole number)
