Answer:

Around 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, 10 percent of 12 is 1.2 because 12/10 is equal to that. Bruce's salary increased by exactly 1 dollar from 12 to 13. 1.2 can be rounded down pretty easily to 1 dollar so we know the answer is around 10. I don't really know everything about percentages so I'm not gonna take a wild guess and have you get it wrong. But not a lot of people are answering on brainly lately so I'm trying to help everyone as much as I can. Sorry, I hope this at least is a little bit of a guide for you.

Fill in the other coordinate for the line 2x - 5y = 11: (4, )

enot [183]

2x - 5y = 11. (4, a). x = 4, y = a

Substituting into 2x - 5y = 11

2(4) - 5(a) = 11

8 - 5a = 11

-5a = 11 - 8

-5a = 3

a = 3/-5 = -3/5 =- 0.6

Other coordinate = -3/5 = -0.6

David hikes 21/4 miles in 1/2 an hour. What is his rate in miles per hour? At this rate, how long will it take him to walk 18 mi

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

A) speed = 10.5 miles per hour

B) Time taken by him = 1.714 hours

C) Distance = 10.5 mph × 7 hours = 73.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover by David = $\frac{21}{4}$ miles = 5.25 miles

The time taken by David = $\frac{1}{2}$ hours = 0.5 hours

Let the speed = x mile per hour

So, Distance = Speed × Time

A)or, Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Or, Speed = $\frac{5.25}{0.5}$

∴ speed = 10.5 miles per hour

B) Again The Distance cover by him = 18 miles

SO, with speed 10.5 miles per hour

The Time taken by him = $\frac{Distance}{speed}$ hours

Or, Time taken by him = $\frac{18}{10.5}$ hours

∴ Time taken by him = 1.714 hours

C) Again the Time taken by him = 7 hours

So, Distance cover by him with speed 10.5 mph

Or, Distance = 10.5 mph × 7 hours = 73.5 miles

A) speed = 10.5 miles per hour

B) Time taken by him = 1.714 hours

C) Distance = 10.5 mph × 7 hours = 73.5 miles Answes

The number of states that joined the United States between 1776 and 1849 is twice the number of states that joined between 1850

AlexFokin [52]

Answer: b. 2x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 30 states joined the United States between 1776 and 1849

and x states joined between 1850 and 1900 .

If the number of states that joined the United States between 1776 and 1849 is twice the number of states that joined between 1850 and 1900.

i.e. No. of states joined the United States between 1776 and 1849= 2 (No. of states that joined between 1850 and 1900)

i.e . 30= 2(x) [Substitute the values]

i.e . 2x=30

Hence, the true equation : 2x=30

Explain how to model the multiplication of 3 and ‒4 on a number line

e-lub [12.9K]

First, start at zero. Now, because we are multiplying -4 by 3, we will jump over by 4 to the left ; 3 times on the number line. We should reach -12, and if we check our work, 3 x -4 = -12.
