Answer:

14 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

2.80+1.20x=20

-2.80            -2.80

1.20x=17.20

1.20x/1.20= 17.20/1.20

x=14 miles

Hope this helps!

Assume the rate of inflation is 5​% per year for the next 2 years. What will be the cost of goods 2 years from​ now, adjusted fo
kirza4 [7]
The equation for inflation is
A = P*(1+r)^t
which is an exponential growth equation (if r > 0). If r < 0, then we have deflation.

where...
A = final price after t years
P = initial starting price
r = rate of inflation in decimal form 
t = number of years

In this case, 
A = unknown (we're solving for this)
P = 280 is the starting price
r = 0.05 is the decimal form of 5%
t = 2 years

We will plug these three pieces of info into the formula to get...
A = P*(1+r)^t
A = 280*(1+0.05)^2
A = 280*(1.05)^2
A = 280*(1.1025)
A = 308.70

Answer: 308.70 dollars

Mateo compró un artefacto gastando los 3/7 de su dinero, quedándole 360 soles, ¿Cuál era el dinero que tenía Mateo al inicio?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

840 soles

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea la cantidad de dinero que Mateo tenía al principio = x

Mateo compró un artefacto gastando 3/7 de su dinero, dejándole 360 ​​soles,

Por eso,

3/7 × x = 360 soles

3x / 7 = 360 soles

Multiplicar cruzada

3x = 7 × 360 soles

x = 7 × 360 soles / 3

x = 840 soles

Por tanto, el dinero que tenía Mateo al principio es de 840 soles

A box contains 35 gems, of which 10 are real diamonds and 25 are fake diamonds. Gems are randomly taken out of the box, one at a
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Probability = 0.504

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Gems= 35

Real = 10

Fake = 25

Required

Determine the probability of selecting two fakes

The probability can be represented as thus: P(Fake\ and\ Fake)

Using the following probability formula, we have:

P(Fake\ and\ Fake) = P(Fake) * P(Fake)

Each probability is calculated by dividing number of fakes by total number of gems:

P(Fake\ and\ Fake) = \frac{25}{35} * \frac{25-1}{35-1}

The minus 1 (-1) represent the numbers of fake and total gems left after the first selection

P(Fake\ and\ Fake) = \frac{25}{35} * \frac{24}{34}

P(Fake\ and\ Fake) = \frac{5}{7} * \frac{12}{17}

P(Fake\ and\ Fake) = \frac{60}{119}

P(Fake\ and\ Fake) = 0.504

<em>Hence, the required probability is approximately 0.504</em>
