Answer:

total sky divers is 25

60% = 15 skydivers

divide by 6 both sides

10% = 2.5

times by 4 both sides

40%=10

The variables y and x^2 are directly
choli [55]

Answer:

y = \frac{20}{21} x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is

y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion

When x = 2

y = k × 2² = 4k

When x = 5

y = k × 5² = 25k

Then

25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )

21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )

k = \frac{20}{21}

y = \frac{20}{21} x² ← equation of proportion

A Bank offers an annual simple interest rate of 8% on home improvement loans. Tobias borrowed $17,000 over a period of 2 years.
Alex17521 [72]

We first find out the amount in dollars of interest accrued after 2 years  time.

Interest = Prt

where P is the principal, r is the rate and t is  time

8% written in decimal fraction → 8/100 → 0.08

Interest = 17000 × 8% × 2

Interest = 1700 × 0.08 × 2

Interest =  2,720 dollars

We add the principal and the interest to get full amount paid, so:

17000 + 2,720 = 19,720

I hope that you good day

Ahat [919]

Answer:

  • C. No. Vinay also multiplied the right-hand side of the equation by --5, which is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proper application of the property:</u>

  • - 5(m - 2) - 25 = -5m - 5(-2) - 25 = -5m + 10 - 25 = -5m - 15

Vinay multiplied 5 and 25 as well, which is incorrect.

Correct answer choice is C.
