Answer:
2.5% and 2.5 · 10^-3, 0.25, 2/5, √5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.25, 2/5, 2.5 · 10^-3, 2.5%, √5
Now let's list them all in the same form, why not decimals.
0.25 = 0.25
2/5 = 4/10 = 40/100 = 0.4
2.5 · 10^-3 = 2.5 · 0.01 = 0.025
2.5% = 0.025
√5 ≅ 2.236
Step-by-step explanation:
£480 = 120% (after adding the 20% VAT).
we want to know how much 100% is.
he do we get from 120% to 100% ?
first the formal long way
£480 = 120%
1% = 120%/120 = 480/120 = £4
100% = 1% × 100 = 4×100 = £400
once you understand this mechanism, you can apply the direct shortcut :
£480 / 1.2 = £400
as a multiplication with 100/120 is the same as a division by 120/100, which is 1.2.
and what we did at the beginning in long form was nothing else than
£480 × 100/120 = 480 × 10/12 = 480 × 5/6 = £400

Answer: Choice D</h3>
Explanation:
Any time Alyssa is increasing her speed, the graph will move uphill when going from left to right.
If she slows down, then the graph will move downhill when going left to right.
Always move from left to right when reading a graph because this is how the time axis is set up.
Any flat part represents portions where her speed is constant, i.e. doesn't change.
With all that in mind, the answer is choice D because
- The first portion is going uphill (she's increasing her speed). This portion spans horizontally from 0 seconds to 20 seconds.
- The next portion is her slowing down (the graph is going downhill). This portion spans horizontally from 20 seconds to 30 seconds (so we have a 10 second duration).
- The third portion is where Alyssa is driving at some fixed speed that doesn't change. This portion is 20 seconds long.
- The last portion is Alyssa slowing down and coming to a complete stop. This portion is 5 seconds long.
0.2 is the same as 2/10
18/(2/10)
As you may have learned in school, when you divide a fraction, you flip the fraction in the denominator, and change it to multiplication
18/(2/10) becomes 18 x (10/2)
multiply normally
18 x 10 = 180
divide to find answer
180/2 = 90
90 is your answer
hope this helps
Remember, when you meet this problem, flip the second fraction, and change the division sign into multiplication. (always second, never first (if first is a fraction)).
