Write 85% as a fraction in simplest form.

Mathematics
1 answer:
pav-90 [236]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

85% can easily be written as 85/100 and this is true, but we have to simplify to the simplest form.

An easy way to simplify is to divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

The GCF of 85 and 100 is 5.

85 ÷ 5 = 17

100 ÷ 5 = 20

We can no longer simplify 17/20 because 17 is prime so your final answer is 17/20!

Hope you have a good day and luck in finding good memes!

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The equation is;

y = -1/4x + 607.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us have the number of drops as y axis while the number of minutes is x axis

The points to use are;

(30,600) and (130,575)

The slope can be calculated using;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (575-600)/(130-30) = -25/100 = -1/4

So the equation as we model using the normal equation of a straight line (y = mx + c, m is slope and c is the intercept)

y = -1/4x + c

To get c, we simply substitute one point

Let us use (30,600)

We have

600 = -1/4(30) + c

600 + 7.5 = c

c = 607.5

So the equation is ;

y = -1/4x + 607.5

Determine whether the series is convergent or divergent. [infinity] n = 1 1 n√9 the series is a ---select--- p-series with p =
inna [77]

The series is a convergent p-series with p = 3

<h3>How to know it is a divergent or a convergent series</h3>

We would know that a series is a convergent p series when we have ∑ 1 np. Then you have to be able to tell if the series is a divergent p series or it is a convergent p series.

The way that you are able to tell this is if the terms of the series do not approach towards 0. Now when the value of p is greater than 1 then you would be able to tell that the series is a convergent series.

The value of \sqrt{9}= 3

The formular for this is

∑\frac{1}{n^p} \\

where n = 1

we know it is convergent because p is greater than 1. 3>1

I have a question from my homework. 2x-1=r if r=4x​
Harman [31]

It sounds like you want to solve for x. If so, then follow these steps:

2x-1 = r

2x-1 = 4x ... replace r with 4x

2x-1-2x = 4x-2x ... subtract 2x from both sides

-1 = 2x

2x =  -1

2x/2 = -1/2 .... divide both sides by 2

x = -1/2 is the fractional solution for x

x = -0.5 is the decimal solution for x.

--------------

If you want to figure out the value of r, then plug the x solution into the equation below and simplify

r = 4x

r = 4(-1/2)

r = -2
