D because 6.2=100
6.2×1.4=8.68
so 100×1.4=140
140-100=40
so it's 40%
Answer:
(A) 12
Step-by-step explanation:
First, lets define the number as x.
"8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number" is translated into "8(x - 6) = 4x"
8(x - 6) = 4x
8x - 48 = 4x
4x = 48
x = 12
35 = 70%
If you divide 35 by 7, you will find what 10% of your maximum bid is.
35/7 = 5
5 = 10%
Multiply your value of 10% by 10 to get 100%.
5*10 = 50
Your maximum bid would be $50. You actually spend $35. To find the amount more you were willing to pay, subtract the two values.
$50-$35 = $15
Answer: You were willing to pay 15 more dollars than you did.
Answer:
10 units
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the length we can use the formula
d = sqrt( (y2-y1)^2 + (x2-x1)^2)
We have the two points (-5,5) and (3,-1)
d = sqrt( (-1-5)^2 + (3--5)^2)
d = sqrt( (-6)^2 + (3+5)^2)
d = sqrt( (-6)^2 + (8)^2)
d = sqrt( 36 + 64)
d = sqrt(100)
d = 10
