It's pretty simple! So it looks like you are learning proportions. You would cross multiply to achieve your answer.
First, let's do your first problem:
2 12
--- = ----
5 n
You would take 5 and multiply it by 12 and get 60! Then you would do the same with 2 times n, giving you 2n (because you do not know what n represents YET.)
Now you should have this:
60=2n OR 2n=60
We must isolate our variable, in order to do that, get rid of two! But how? You would do this by dividing 2n by 2. Yet in equations, when you do something to one side, you must do it to the other because they must be EQUAL! (hence the "equa-" in equation)
2n=60
--- ---
2 2 DIVIDE 2 into 60
----------
n= 30 Simplify!
Your final answer for the first question is n= 30!
Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 1/3 of a box of chocolates costs 6 dollars, you can buy (4×(1/3))/6=2/9 of a box of chocolates!
If your looking for the sum, it would be -5 :)
Answer:
therefore the correct options are:
B. the equation is an exponential decay equation.
F. $28000 represents the initial cost of an automobile that depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) the cost of an automobile is given by the equation is
C(t) =
, where C(t) represents the cost and t represents the time in years
ii) the above equation is an exponential decay equation. It is a decay equation because growth rate is 0.73 which is less than 1 and greater than zero.
ii) when t = 0 then the cost is C(0) = 28000 represents the initial cost.
iii) from the equation in i) we can understand that the cost depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.
therefore the correct options are:
B. the equation is an exponential decay equation.
F. $28000 represents the initial cost of an automobile that depreciates 27% per year over the course of t years.
