Answer is 40km
Explanation:
So in this question we can use a proportion
Since
28km is 70% we can write it equal to 70%
28=70

and since 100% is unknown we can write it equal to x
100=x

Then we put it in proportion form

28/x=70/100


Then cross multiply and divide

28(100)/70=x

Which would equal 40

Which of the following best describes the term induction?
tatiyna

Answer:

C. Starting with a given set of rules and figuring out what must be  true . TRUE

Step by step explanation:

Mathematical Induction

Mathematical Induction is a mathematical technique which we can use to prove any given mathematical statement, result, theorem or corollary with help of induction.

Here, we assume the statement to be true for a smaller natural number            (Usually 1) and then prove the statement to be true for ANY ARBITRARY NUMBER say k.

Now, from the given options:

A. Writing down the steps to solve a complicated math problem .

FALSE as the induction method is based on ASSUMPTION and INDUCTION.

B. Forming rules based upon observations and experiences .

FALSE as the induction method is based on ASSUMPTION and INDUCTION.  We need to induce the needed  statement or Result.

C. Starting with a given set of rules and figuring out what must be  true .

TRUE as the induction method is based on ASSUMPTION and INDUCTION.

We try and find out  the result with the given existing data.

D. Reducing the solution to a problem in lowest terms.

FALSE as the induction method is based on ASSUMPTION and INDUCTION.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Part A) 82% of $5.00 is $4.10.

Part B) Less, because $5.00 is 2x as much as $2.50, therefore anything over 50% would be less, and anything under would be more.

Cosx=4/5 what is sin2x cos2x and tan2x
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

-24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the problem is as follows:

cscx < 0 means 1/sinx < 0, or sinx < 0.  

sinx = -3/5 because you're dealing with a 3-4-5 triangle, and we established

sinx is negative.  

sin2x = 2sinxcosx = 2*-3/5*4/5 = -24/25  

cos(2x) = cos^2(x) - sin^2(x) = 16/25 - 9/25 = 5/25 = 1/5  

tan2x = sin2x / cos2x = -24/5
