Answer:

  • <u>a = 0.32</u>

Explanation:

This question requires that you find the value of    a    given that:

  • 2\frac{1}{7}:(15a)=(5/14)/(0.8)

That is you have to solve the equation for a.

1. Rewrite the equation in form of fractions, convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, and convert the decimal number into fraction too.

2\frac{1}{7}:(15a)=(5/14)/(0.8)\\ \\ \frac{2+\frac{1}{7} }{15a} =\frac{5/14}{8/10}\\ \\\frac{(14+1)/7}{15a} =\frac{5\times 10}{8\times 14}\\ \\ \frac{15}{7\times 15a} =\frac{50}{112}

2. Cross multiply to leave a alone:

a=15\times 112/(7\times 15\times 50)\\ \\a=1680/5250\\ \\a=0.32

The 11 foot long bed of a dump truck loaded with debris must rise an angle of degrees before the debris will spill out. Approxim
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. The complete question is:

The 12 foot long bed of a dump truck loaded with debris must rise an angle of 30 degrees before the debris will spill out. Approximately how high must the front of the bed rise for the debris to spill out.

Solution:

Let x be the height of the front of the bed rise needed to be raised for the debris to spill out. We can find x using trigonometric identities. That is:

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

Using trigonometric identities, we can get that:

sin(30) = x / 12

This gives:

0.5 = x / 12

Cross multiplying the terms to get:

x = 12 * 0.5

x = 6 ft

Therefore the front of the bed rise must be raised 6 ft for the debris to spill out.

27.) When 7 is added to 3 times a certain number, the result is 22”
ANTONII [103]

The number is 5/2 or 2.5

7 is added to six times a number, the result is 22

The number sentence is interpreted this way:

7+6n=22

6n=22–7

6n=15

The goal here is to find out the value of n.

Let’s divide both sides of the equation with 6

6n/6=15/6

n= 5/2 or 2.5

Let’s check by substituting the value of n to the given equation.

Always remember to follow the PEMDAS rule. We will deal with Multiplication and Addition after.

If n=2.5

7+6n=22

7+6(2.5)=22

7+15=22

22=22

Given the result, this means that the value of the number represented by n is 2.5 or 5/2.

40% off means you are paying 60% of the original price ( 100% - 40% = 60%


Multiply the price of the coat by 60%:

65.00 x 0.60 = 39.00 ( sale price)

Now multiply the sale price by 1.05 ( price of coat plus tax rate) to get the final cost:

39.00 x 1.05 = 40.95


The final price is $40.95
