<span>Question:
What percent of 200 is 0.5?
Solutions and discussions:
=> 200 is the 100% value of the numbers
=> 0.5 is the number in which we need to find the percentage value of it in
200.
How to solve. Simply follow the formula
=> 0.5 / 200 = 0.0025 – this is the to get the decimal value of the number
that we will be converting to percentage.
=> 0.0025 * 100% = 0.25%
Therefore 0.5 is 0.25% of 200.

Answer:
12 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between jogging speed and walking speed means the time it takes to walk 4 miles is the same as the time it takes to jog 8 miles. Then the total travel time (0.75 h) is the time it would take to jog 1+8 = 9 miles. The jogging speed is ...
(9 mi)(.75 h) = 12 mi/h . . . average jogging speed
__
<em>Check</em>
1 mile will take (1 mi)/(12 mi/h) = 1/12 h to jog.
4 miles will take (4 mi)/(6 mi/h) = 4/6 = 8/12 h to walk.
The total travel time is (1/12 +8/12) h = 9/12 h = 3/4 h. (answer checks OK)

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
Olympic race-walking speed is on the order of 7.7 mi/h, so John's walking speed of 6 mi/h should be considered quite a bit faster than normal. The fastest marathon ever run is on the order of a bit more than 12 mi/h, so John's jogging speed is also quite a bit faster than normal. No wonder he got tired.
Answer:
x^3 + 1/x^3 = 488
Step-by-step explanation:
- x^2 + 1/x^2 = 62
- x^2 + 1/x^2 + 2 = 64
- ( adding 2 in both sides )
- (x + 1/x ) ^2 = 64
- x + 1/x = 8
now,
- ( x+ 1/x ) ^ 3 = 512
- x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3 × x × 1/x ( x + 1/x )
- x^3 + 1/x^3 + 3 ( 8 )
- ( since x + 1/x = 8 )
- x^3 + 1/x^3 + 24 = 512
- x^3 + 1/x^3 = 488
hence, we got x^3 + 1/x^3 = 488
