You would first add the two parts of the ratio to get ten, then divide 120 by ten to get 12. This means that each part of the ratio is worth 12 dollars, so to get the helper’s salary you would multiply 12 by three to get a total of 36.

Tan 12 degrees = 10/x
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Solve like an equation,
You need x by itself.
Since x is on the denominator, multiply both sides by x to clear the fraction.
Tan 12 = 10/x
x Tan12 = 10
Divide both sides by Tan12
x = 10/(Tan12)
x = 47

Russell has a collection of 1,200 pennies. Of these pennies, 25% are dated before 1980, 35% are dated from 1980 to 2000, and the
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

480 pennies dated after 2000.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pennies dated before 1980 (x) - 25%,

All pennies (1,200) - 100%.

Then

\dfrac{x}{1,200}=\dfrac{25}{100},\\ \\100x=25\cdot 1,200,\\ \\x=25\cdot 12=300.

2. Pennies dated from 1980 to 2000 (y) - 35%,

All pennies (1,200) - 100%.

Then

\dfrac{y}{1,200}=\dfrac{35}{100},\\ \\100y=35\cdot 1,200,\\ \\y=35\cdot 12=420.

3. Rest pennies are dated after 2000, then

1,200-300-420=480.

Ms.Miller decides to give a test worth 120 points and contains 36 questions. Multiple-choice questions are worth 3 points and op

The number of open-response questions is 6.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 4 - 9 is an equation.

We have,

Number of multiple choice questions = M

Number of open response questions = N

We can make two equations.

M + N = 36 _______(1)

3M + 5N = 120 ______(2)

From (1) we get,

M = 36 - N ______(3)

Putting (3) in (2) we get,

3(36 - N) + 5N = 120

108 - 3N + 5N = 120

2N = 120 - 108

2N = 12

N = 6

Now,

Putting N = 6 in (3) we get,

M = 36 - 6

M = 30

Thus,

The number of multiple-choice questions and open-response questions is 30 and 6.

First four terms of the sequence an = 8 - 2n with formula
kramer

Answer:

6, 4, 2, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the first 4 terms, substitute n = 1, 2, 3, 4 into the n th term formula, that is

a₁ = 8 - 2(1) = 8 - 2 = 6

a₂ = 8 - 2(2) = 8 - 4 = 4

a₃ = 8 - 2(3) = 8 - 6 = 2

a₄ = 8 - 2(4) = 8 - 8 = 0

The first 4 terms are 6, 4, 2, 0
