4.80 = 100%
x = 55%
Cross Multiply
100 * x = 55 * 4.80
100x = 264
x = <u>264</u>
100
x = 2.64
Solution: $2.64
Answer:
y = 18x + 10
slope = 18
y-intercept = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The situation given in the problem is linear and can be represented using slope-intercept form of a linear equation: y = mx + b, where 'm' is equal to the slope, 'b' is equal to the y-intercept, 'x' is the number of hours and 'y' is the total number of miles.
Given that Jasmine has already biked 10 miles, her initial value, or y-intercept would be 10. Since she is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour, her rate of change, or slope, would be 18.
Using these values for 'm' and 'b': y = 18x + 10
Answer:
-$0.26
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation to determine the expected value of playing the game once
Expected value= [18/(18+18+2) x $5)]- [20/(18+18+2) x $5]
Expected value= ($18/38 x $5) - (20/38 x $5)
Expected value= ($2.37-$2.63)
Expected value= -$0.26
Therefore the expected value of playing the game once is -$0.26

can you upload a picture so we can help out or a description? thanks!
Answer:
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
It is always a good idea to look at the question and make some observations about it. Here, you might observe ...
- all of the bases are powers of 3: 243 = 3^5; 9 = 3^2
- y is a factor of every exponent
The latter observation is important, because it means that when y=0, every exponential expression has a value of 1. Hence y = 0 is a solution.

To solve the equation, you can write it in terms of powers of 3.
(3^5)^(-y) = (3^-5)^(3y)·(3^2)^(-2y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-15y)·3^(-4y)
3^(-5y) = 3^(-19y)
-5y = -19y . . . . . . . . equating exponents; equivalent to taking log base 3
14y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . add 19y
y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . one solution

The rules of exponents we used are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
1/a^b = a^-b
