Answer:
B : -2
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
x=3
z=65
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+97 and 14x+73 are vertical angles which means they are equal
6x+97= 14x+73
Subtract 6x from each side
6x-6x+97= 14x-6x+73
97 = 8x +73
Subtract 73 from each side
97-73 = 8x+73-73
24 = 8x
Divide each side by 8
24/8 = 8x/8
3 = x
Now we need to find z
6x+97 and z are supplementary angles which means they add to 180
6x+97 +z = 180
6(3) +97 +z = 180
18+97+z=180
Combine like terms
115+z = 180
Subtract 115 from each side
115-115 +z=180-115
z = 65
For these questions it is asking you to convert different measurements.
For the first part,
You must convert 10 kilometres to meters
Or 500 meters to kilometres
For this example I will covert 500 meters to kilometres
1000 meters = 1 kilometer
So 500 meters is 0.5 kilometres or half a kilometer
So on the first day you ride 10 kilometres and increase by 0.5 kilometres a day that means you increase by 1 kilometer every two days
The question is asking how many days until you get to 15 kilometres well
15-10=5
5x2 =10 so the answer to the first part is 10 days
In the second part you have to convert again I am going to convert kilometres to meters this time
We know 1km = 1000m
So you times the kilometer by 1000 to get the meters
0.75 x 1000 = 750
So you start with 7500 and increase by 750 every day
The question asks you the total after 3 days so we must find out each day and add them up
1st day: 7500
2nd day: 7500+750=8250
3rd day: 8250+750=9000
Now we must add them together so
7500+8250+9000=24750
So the answer to this part is 24750 meters
The last part is asking you to compare the programs so let’s start with training program A
20-10=10
10x2= 20
So A is 20 days
Training program B:
We know from previous questions that on the third day you do 9000 meters so we must carry on from there
4th day: 9000+750=9750
5th day: 9750 +750=10500
6th day: 10500 + 750=11250
7th day: 11250 + 750 = 12000
As you can see there is a pattern here on the 3rd day we are on 9000 and on the 7th day we are on 12000 that means it has increased by 3000 in 4 days this is because 750 x 4 = 3000
This means we know 18000 is the 15th day
We will carry on from here
16th day: 18000+750=18750
17th day: 18760+750=19500
18th day: 19500+750=20250
Here we have gone over 200000 which is 20 km on the 18th day meaning training program B is quicker
Answer:
Using the percentage difference formula you can find the percentage decrease.
SO its
100(new-old/new)
So we solve
10-6=4
4/10= 2/5
2/5*100=200/5
40
40 percent decrease
Answer:
50 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use the equation 60+80/100x=1(x+50)
we get 80/100 x because the gummy candies are 80 cents or 80/100x
we get 60 from multiplying 1.20$ x 50 = 60
solve:
60+80/100x = x+50
60 = x-80/100x+50
60-50 = 20/100x
10 = 20/100x
x= 10 x 100/20 = 10x5= 50 pounds
