Answer:

2250

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, 14% × x = 315

or,

100

× x = 315

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 14,

we have x = 315 ×

100

x = 2250

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 315×100÷14, which will give you the answer

Answer:

2250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number

14% of x = 14/100 * x

14/100 * x = 315

Multiply 100 on both the sides,

14x = 31500

Divide by 14 on both the sides,

x = 31500/14 = 2250

Taylor ran 2 1/4 miles and walked 2 4/5 miles. How far did she run and walk

irinina [24]

Okay. So, we should convert fractions to the least common denominator, which is 20. That would be 2 5/20 and 2 16/20. Add both of those numbers up to get 5 1/20. Taylor ran and walked 5 1/20 miles.

You're pretty sure that your candidate for class president has about 55% of the votes in the entire school. but you're worried t

Pavlova-9 [17]

Part A:

A component is one voter's vote. An outcome is a vote in favour of our candidate.
Since there are 100 voters, we can stimulate the component by using two randon digits from 00 - 99, where the digits 00 - 54 represents a vote for our candidate and the digits 55 - 99 represents a vote for the underdog.

Part B:

A trial is 100 votes. We can stimulate the trial by randomly picking 100 two-digits numbers from 00 - 99. Whoever gets the majority of the votes wins the trial.

Part C:

The response variable is whether the underdog wants to win or not. To calculate the experimental probability, divide the number of trials in which the simulated underdog wins by the total number of trials.

For tax purposes, a car rental company assumes each car in their fleet depreciates by 6% per year. If the initial value of a car

n200080 [17]

The value of a car after 10 years be $20898.27 if the car rental company assumes each car in their fleet depreciates by 6% per year option (a) $20898.27 is correct.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always a positive. It denotes with exponent $\rm y = a^x$

where a is a constant and a>1

We can solve this problem by exponential function:

The word depreciate means the price is decreasing.

We can find the value be when the car is 10 years old:

p = 38800(1 - 0.06)¹⁰

p = 38800(0.94)¹⁰

p = 20898.266 ≈ $20898.27

Thus, the value of a car after 10 years be $20898.27 if the car rental company assumes each car in their fleet depreciates by 6% per year option (a) $20898.27 is correct.

M+1 3/8=5 What does m equal?

Arte-miy333 [17]

$\text{ The value of m is equal to 3.625 or }\frac{29}{8} \text{ or } 3\frac{5}{8}$

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to find the value of "m"

Given expression is:

$m + 1\frac{3}{8} = 5$

<em><u>Let us first convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction</u></em>

Steps to follow:

Divide the numerator by the denominator.

Write down the whole number answer.

Then write down any remainder above the denominator.

Therefore,

$1\frac{3}{8}=\frac{8 \times 1+3}{8} = \frac{8+3}{8} = \frac{11}{8}$

Now the expression becomes,

$m + \frac{11}{8} = 5$

Keep the variable "m" on L.H.S and move the constant to R.H.S

$m = 5 - \frac{11}{8}\\\\m = \frac{5 \times 8 -11}{8}\\\\m = \frac{40-11}{8}\\\\m = \frac{29}{8}\\\\\text{In mixed fractions, we can write as }\\\\m = \frac{29}{8} = 3\frac{5}{8}$

Thus value of m is equal to 3.625 or $\frac{29}{8} \text{ or } 3\frac{5}{8}$
