The question is to find out how many times 1/4 is equal to 1 1/2
First lets convert the total:
1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2
now we need to find out a number that multiplied by 1/4 gives 3/2, that is an equation:
(1/4)x = 3/2
and solving for x:
x = (3/2)*4
x = 12/2
x = 6
therefore they will take 6 days to repave the whole street
Answer:
m<1 = 57°
m<2 = 33°
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the numerical measure of both angles, let's come up with an equation to determine the value of x.
Given that m<1 = (10x +7)°, and m<2 = (9x - 12)°, where both are complementary angles, therefore, it means, both angles will add up to give us 90°.
Equation we can generate from this, is as follows:
(10x + 7)° + (9x - 12)° = 90°
Solve for x
10x + 7 + 9x - 12 = 90
Combine like terms
19x - 5 = 90
Add 5 to both sides
19x = 90 + 5 (addition property not equality)
19x = 95
Divide both sides by 19
x = 5
m<1 = (10x +7)°
Replace x with 5
m<1 = 10(5) + 7 = 50 + 7 = 57°
m<2 = (9x - 12)
Replace x with 5
m<2 = 9(5) - 12 = 45 - 12 = 33°
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
The discount on the shirt is 15%
Discount = price* discount rate
= 20 * 15%
= 20 * .15
=3
The new price is the previous price minus the discount
new price = 20-3
new price = 17
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you want to understand that every time a radio wave goes 300,000,000 meters a second passes, literally what meter per second means. of course it doesn't go that far, it goes 384,000 one way and then the same distance back, which makes 768,000. Under a third of the distance to make 1 second, so it will be less than one second.
You also want to understand the formula for speed. speed = distance / time. Whch also means, to find time you can change it to be time = distance / speed. And hey, we have distance and speed. 768,000 / 300,000,000 = .00256, I'll leave the significant figures to you unless you need help with them. but that's .00256 of a second. or .00256 s
