60% of the total (30) can swim
60% of 30 = (60/100)*30 = 0.60*30 = 18
So 18 children can swim
This means 30-18 = 12 cannot swim
---------------------------------------------------------
An alternative is to do it this way:
We know 60% can swim so that means 40% cannot swim.
Notice how 100% - 60% = 40%
Or in other words, the 60% and 40% add to 100%. This is because we have two choices: either the person can swim or cannot swim
Since 40% cannot swim, this means
40% of 30 = (40/100)*30 = 0.40*30 = 12
and we get the same result as before
---------------------------------------------------------
Final Answer: 12
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Subtract 8 from both sides</u>
8 - 3x - 8 = 17 - 8
<em>-3x = 9</em>
<em />
<u>Step 2: Divide both sides by -3</u>
-3x / -3 = 9 / -3
<em>x = -3</em>
<em />
Answer: x = -3
Answer:
The cost to rent a bike
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer to your question is the letter b) y = -3x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Original line y = 1/3x - 2
Point = (3, 2)
New line = ? (perpendicular)
Process
1.- Get the slope of the original line
The slope is the coefficient of the x in the line equation.
y = 1/3x - 2
slope = m = 1/3
2.- Find the slope of the new line
new slope = -3 (because the lines are perpendicular)
3.- Find the equation of the new line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
x1 = 3 y1 = 2
-Substitution
y - 2 = -3(x - 3)
-Simplification
y - 2 = -3x + 9
y = -3x + 9 + 2
-Result
y = -3x + 11
