Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

0.74y = 128

Step 2: Solve for y

Divide both sides by 0.74: y = 172.973

Step 3: Check

Plug in y into the original equation to verify it is a solution.

Substitute in y: 0.74(172.973) = 128
Multiply: 128 = 128

Here we see that 128 does indeed equal 128.

∴ y = 172.973 is a solution of the equation.

Y = 172.972972972...

You need to isolate the variable, y. To do this, you need to divide both sides of the equation by 0.74. This gives you your final answer.

Monica is mixing some custom-colored paint for her house. The color she wants requires 3⁄4 ounce of blue dye and 2⁄3 of an ounce

Genrish500 [490]

Ounce of blue dye mixed with one gallon of white paint base = 3/4

Ounce of blue dye mixed with eight gallons of white paint base = $\frac{3}{4} (8)$

= 3 × 2

Ounce of pink dye mixed with one gallon of white paint base = 2/3

Ounce of pink dye mixed with eight gallons of white paint base = $\frac{2}{3} (8)$

= 16/3

= 5.3

Hence, 6 ounce of blue dye and 5.3 ounce of pink dye are needed to mix with 8 gallons of paint.

The cost price of a box and a pen is Rs 80 The box is sold at 10% profit and the pen is sold at 20% loss. If the selling price o

uysha [10]

Answer:

61.84%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the box be x. Since the price of the box and the pen is Rs 80, the pen's price can be represented as 80 - x. The box is sold at a ten percent profit, and an added ten percent is equal to 1.1. Therefore, the price the box sells at is 1.1(x). A 20% loss is the same a keeping 80% or multiplying by 0.8. This means the pen sold at 0.8(80 - x). Now, we are given the box went for Rs 28 more than the pen, so we can create an equation:

1.1x = 0.8(80 - x) + 28

We can simplify and solve:

1.1x = 64 - 0.8x + 28

1.9x = 92

x = 92/1.9

x = 920/19

The cost of the box after the increase would be 1.1(920/19) and the pen would be 0.8(80 - 920/19).

The sum of these two can be written as a percent x of 80.

80x = 0.8(80 - 920/19) + 1.1(920/19)

80x = 64 - 0.8(920/19) + 1.1(920/9)

80x = 64 - 0.3(920/19)

80x = 64 - 276/19

80x = 940/19

x = 940/1520

x = 0.6184

This is 61.84%

The 20 tallest buildings in the world have an average height of 1,667.25 feet, with a standard deviation of 318.31 feet. The Zif

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Marina, Wuhan center, Zifeng Tower , Shangai Tower

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the z-scores of the Shangai tower and the Marina, we can calculate their heights

Mathematically, the z-score or standard score can be calculated as follows

Zscore = X - μ/σ

where σ and μ represents the standard deviation and the population mean respectively.

For Shaghai Tower ;

1.27 = (X - 1667.25)/318.31

318.31 × 1.27 = X - 1667.25

404.25 = X - 1667.25

X = 1667.25 + 404.25 = 2071.50

The height of the Shaghai Tower is 2071.50 feet

For Marina, we use the same procedure;

-0.84 = (X - 1667.25)/318.31

318.31 × -0.84 = X - 1667.25

-267.38 = X - 1667.25

X = 1667.25 - 267.38 = 1399.87

The height of Marina building is 1399.87

Listing the buildings' height in ascending order we have; Marina, Wuhan center, Zifeng Tower , Shangai Tower

The reasoning behind this can be mathematically explained in terms of the z-score. The standard score of the heights of the building give us an insight as to how tall the buildings can be.

Since they are in the same population i.e building heights, the higher the z-score, the higher the height of the building. A positive z-score indicates a height taller than the average while a negative z-score indicate a height lower than the average height which is the mean

Does 3 and the square roots of 8 and 17 form a right triangle

Gala2k [10]

If it’s is a right triangle then
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
3^2 + (square root of 8)^2 = 17^2

I don’t have a calculator but type that in and if it doesn’t equal 17^2 than the answer is no it doesn’t make a right triangle
