He spent 1.25 hours edging.

You can get this by multiplying the total amount of time by the percentage.

.25 * 5 = 1.25

Answer:

1.25 hours = 1 hour and 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of time that he worked was 5 hours.

And 25% of that time he spend it edging the flower bends.

Thus, in order to solve this problem we need to find how much is 25% of 5 hours.

To find a percentage of any quantity 'x' we apply the following formula:

\frac{x(percentage) }{100}

in this case the quantity is 5 hours, and the percentage we want is 25%, so:

25% of 5 hours = \frac{5(25)}{100}

25% of 5 hours = \frac{125}{100}

25% of 5 hours = 1.25hours

he spend 1.25 hours edging. Or you can also represent 1.25 hours as 1 hour and 15 minutes

Andrea has a savings account with $80 that earns 2% interest per
lianna [129]

Answer:

After 10 years, she will has $96 in her bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Andrea's saving account is $80 and earns 2% interest per year as a <em>S</em><em>i</em><em>m</em><em>p</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em> </em>(Not Compounded). Using simple interest formula, Interest = (P×R×T)/100 where <em>P</em> is the <em>principal</em>, <em>R</em> is the <em>interest rate</em> and <em>T</em> is <em>number of years</em><em> </em>:

I =  \frac{p \times r \times t}{100}

P = $80

R = 2%

T = 10 years

I =  \frac{80 \times 2 \times 10}{100}

I =  \frac{1600}{100}

I = 16

It is given that the interest amount is $16. So the total amount she has after 10 years in the bank is $96 :

interest amount = $16

principal = $80

total = $16 + $80

= $96

Helppppp me find a equation for this lol
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: One POSSIBLE answer is (0,9)

Step-by-step explanation: This may look hard but it's actually super easy. All you have to do is substitute a value for x and see what you get as the y value. The first thing I would do is rearrange the equation so that the equation is in the format y = something. So the first thing you should do is subtract 6x from both sides of the equation and you should get -y=-6x+9. Right now, the y is being multiplied by -1, and to undo multiplication, you have to divide. So divide both sides of the equation by -1 (remember, what you do on one side of the equation, YOU HAVE TO DO THE SAME THING ON THE OTHER SIDE). So your new equation would be y=6x-9. Then, all you have to do is substitute a value for x and see what you get for y (x is basically the input and whatever you get for y is the output). S for example, let's say that x=0. So substitute a 0 in the equation wherever you see an x. So in this case, you would get y=(6x0)+9. Then you just simplify. So 6x0 is 0 and 0+9=9 So y=9

TO RECAP: Rearrange the equation so that the equation is in the format y = something. Then, input any number for x, and whatever you get for y is what you put in the brackets as your y value for your final answer.

Hope this helps!
