Percent formula : is/of = %/100
is = 12
of = 60
% = x
now we sub

12/60 = x/100
cross multiply
(60)(x) = (12)(100)
60x = 1200
x = 1200/60
x = 20

check..
0.20(60) = 12
12 = 12 (correct)

so 20% of 60 is 12

Well, know that a percentage is obtained by multiplying a quantity (60) by a percentage (x). So we can set up an equation that states, <span>60x=12</span> Just divide by 60 and convert into percentage form.<span><span>x=12/60=.2=20percent</span></span>

A line passes through (4, 5) and (8, 9). Which equation best represents the line?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

that is the equation of the line, its slope is 1 and the y-intercept is 1 y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we can calculate the slope of this line passing through (4,5) and (8,9) like this:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (9 - 5)/(8 - 4)

m = 4/4

m = 1

so the slope is 1, and now we can use the equation of one point and the slope to write the line's equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 1*(x - 4)

y - 5 = x - 4

y = x + 1

that is the equation of the line, its slope is 1 and the y-intercept is 1

A right cubic prism has edges of 2 1/2 inches. How
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Option D, the volume is 15.625 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

For a cube of side length L, the volume is:

V = L^3

for the smaller cubes, we know that each one has a side length of 1 in, then the volume of each small cube is:

v = (1in)^3 = 1 in^3

Then:

1 in^3 is equivalent to one small cube

Here we know that the side length of our cube is (2 + 1/2) in

Then the volume of this cube will be:

V = [ (2 + 1/2) in]^3

To simplify the calculation, we can write:

2 + 1/2 = 4/2 + 1/2 = 5/2

Then:

V = ( 5/2 in)^3 = (5^3)/(2^3) in^3 = 125/8 in^3 = 15.626 in^3

This means that 15.625 small cubes will fill the prism.

So the correct option is D.

If m∠EBD= 4x - 8 and m∠EBC= 5x + 20, find the value of x and m∠EBC.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

-28 = x

Step-by-step explanation

[5x + 20] + [4x - 8] = 180

9x + 12 = 180

- 12 -12

______________

9x = 168

18⅔ = x

m∠EBC = 5[18⅔] + 20 = 113⅓

93⅓

You will get a negative answer if you set them equal to each other, which is not allowed when you are talking about <em>length</em><em>.</em>

I hope this is correct, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.
