Answer:

x = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine − 3/5x and 7/20x to get -19/20x.

Then combine -19/20x and 1/4x and you get -7/10x.

Then you multiply both sides by -10/7 which is the reciprocal of -7/10.

Make -56(-10) one fraction.

Multiply -56 and -10 and you get 560.

Then divide 560 by 7 to get 80.

An airplane is ascending at a constant rate of 15 feet per second what is the change in altitude during 10 minutes of flight

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

9000 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A airplane is ascending at a constant rate of 15 feet per second,

What we need to know: The change in altitude during 10 minutes of flight,

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 × 10

= 600 seconds

600 × 15

= 9000 ft

Therefore there was a 9000 ft change in altitude during the 10 minutes of the flight.

A spinner has 10 equally sized sections, 5 of which are gray and 5 of which are blue. The spinner is spun twice. What is the pro

zhenek [66]

Answer:

$P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Sections = 10$

$n(Gray) = 5$

$n(Blue) = 5$

Required

Determine P(Gray and Blue)

Using probability formula;

$P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)$

Calculating P(Gray)

$P(Gray) = \frac{n(Gray)}{Sections}$

$P(Gray) = \frac{5}{10}$

$P(Gray) = \frac{1}{2}$

Calculating P(Gray)

$P(Blue) = \frac{n(Blue)}{Sections}$

$P(Blue) = \frac{5}{10}$

$P(Blue) = \frac{1}{2}$

Substitute these values on the given formula

$P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)$

$P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{2}$

$P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}$
