Answer:

  2.  15 cents/min

  3.  7/4 gallon/week = 1.75 gal/wk

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to convert the units without changing the rate. You do this by making use of conversion factors. Each conversion factor has a value of 1, but changes the units. (It has a value of 1 because the quantity in the numerator is equal to the quantity in the denominator.)

In general, you know that when the numerator and denominator of a fraction are the same thing, they cancel, leaving a value of 1. When a variable (or unit) is involved, the cancelled variables (or units) simply disappear.

For example, multiplying (9 dollars)×(100 cents)/(1 dollar) gives ...

  (9\text{ dollar})\times\dfrac{100\text{ cents}}{1\text{ dollar}}=\dfrac{9\times100\times\text{cents}\times\text{dollar}}{1\times\text{ dollar}}=\dfrac{900\text{ cents}}{1}=900\text{ cents}

The units of "dollar" cancel, leaving cents. Note that we did this by choosing a conversion factor with units we want in the place we want, and units we don't want on the other side of the fraction bar.

__

2) We want cents in the numerator, so our conversion factor will be (100 cents)/(1 dollar). And we want minutes in the denominator, so our other conversion factor will be (1 hour)/(60 minutes). Multiplying by these conversion factors, our rate becomes ...

  \dfrac{\$9}{1\text{ hr}}\times\dfrac{100\text{ cents}}{\$1}\times\dfrac{1\text{ hr}}{60\text{ min}}=\dfrac{9\times100\times1\text{ cents}}{1\times1\times60\text{ min}}\\\\=\dfrac{900}{60}\cdot\dfrac{\text{cents}}{\text{min}}=\boxed{15\text{ cents/min}}

__

3) We want gallons in the numerator, so that conversion will be done by (1 gal)/(8 pt). We want weeks in the denominator, so the conversion for that is (7 day)/(1 week).

  \dfrac{2\text{ pt}}{1\text{ day}}\times\dfrac{1\text{ gal}}{8\text{ pt}}\times\dfrac{7\text{ day}}{1\text{ week}}=\dfrac{2\times1\times7}{1\times8\times1}\cdot\dfrac{\text{gal}}{\text{week}}=\boxed{\dfrac{7}{4}\text{ gal/week}}

Answer:

452+(783-546)

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 452 ; 452+

the difference of 783 and 546 ; 783-546

You add in the parentheses so that you're adding 452 to the difference of the two other numbers instead of to 783.

Dado dos ángulos complementarios, uno mide (2x + 10) y el otro (x + 20),
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

El valor de <em>x</em> es igual a 20 o <em>x</em> = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lo primero que se debe saber es que <em>dos ángulos complementarios suman un ángulo recto o 90º</em>.

Supongamos que el valor de un ángulo \\ \alpha y un ángulo \\ \beta valen:

\\ \alpha = 2x + 10 [1]

\\ \beta = x + 20 [2]

Como la suma de  \\ \alpha + \beta = 90 [3]

Entonces

\\ \alpha + \beta = (2x + 10) + (x + 20) = 90

Sumamos los factores comunes entre si:

\\ (2x + x) + (10 + 20) = 90

Para la primera expresión debemos recordar que se suman sólo los coeficientes. Así:

\\ (2 + 1)x + (10 + 20) = 90

\\ 3x + 30 = 90

Para despejar la incógnita <em>x</em>, debemos tener en cuenta que <em>una igualdad no se altera si se suma, se resta, se multiplica o divide un mismo valor a cada lado de ella</em>. Por esta razón, para despejar 3x, lo primero que podemos hacer es sumar -30 a cada lado de la expresión (lo que es igual a restar 30 a cada lado de la misma). Así tenemos:

\\ 3x + 30 - 30 = 90 - 30

\\ 3x + 0 = 90 - 30

\\ 3x = 60

Ahora dividimos cada miembro de la igualdad entre 3 (o multiplicamos cada lado de la igualdad por \\ \frac{1}{3} ):

\\ \frac{3}{3}x = \frac{60}{3}

Como sabemos que:

\\ \frac{3}{3} = 1

Entonces:

\\ 1*x = \frac{60}{3}

\\ x = \frac{60}{3}

\\ x = 20

De esta manera, el valor de <em>x</em> es igual a 20 o x = 20.

Lo anterior lo podemos comprobar considerando las ecuaciones [1], [2] y [3]. Así tenemos que:

\\ \alpha = 2x + 10 [1]

Sustituimos x por el valor de 20:

\\ \alpha = 2*20 + 10 = 40 + 10 = 50

\\ \beta = x + 20 [2]

Hacemos lo mismo para [2]:

\\ \beta = 20 + 20

\\ \beta = 40

De esta manera:

\\ \alpha + \beta = 90 [3]

\\ 50 + 40 = 90

You basically look at the bar graph on the right and see which statement is true. Brainliest and thank you!
wel

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To check this answer, you could obviously graph the points, but without graphing, you can tell the line would be straight because each x value is multiplied by the same number to get the corresponding y value.

3 x 5 = 15, 4 x 5 = 20, etc. This shows linear growth. If each x value were multiplied by twice itself (3 x 6, 4 x 8, and so on), you wouldn't have a straight line because the number that x is multiplied by changes depending on the value of x.
