Answer: Multiplying the number by 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Jay took a number, n, and increased it by 25%. The value gotten will be:

= n + (25% × n)

= n + (0.25 × n)

= n + 0.25n

= 1.25n

After that, Then, he doubled the resulting product. The value now gotten will be:

= 2 × 1.25n

= 2.50n

Therefore, the equivalent will be multiplying the number by 2.5. This will be:

= n × 2.5

= 2.5n

Therefore, it's thesame with the value gotten.

The correct option is D.

Uncle Drew scored 28 points in 5 5/6 end fraction minutes during a game of basketball. How many points did he average per minute
8090 [49]

Answer:

Ok so I think the answer is 4.8 points per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Why because Uncle Drew scored 28 points in 5 \frac{5}{6} minutes. We have to convert the mixed fraction first:

t = 5 \frac{5}{6}=\frac{5\cdot 6+5}{6}=\frac{35}{6}

So, the time is 35/6 minutes.

In order to find the number of points he scored in a minute, we have to divide the total number of points by the number of minutes, so:

mean = \frac{28}{35/6}=28 \cdot \frac{6}{35}=4.8

So, he scored 4.8 points per minute.

I hope you foundthis helpful.

Answer: Choice B

The slope is rise/run = 2/3 meaning we go up 2 and over to the right 3. For instance, moving from (0,0) to (3,2) has us move up 2 and over to the right 3.

Alternatively you can use the slope formula m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to get the same result of 2/3.
