Answer:
It was difficult reading the question, as written. Check my assumptions.
Step-by-step explanation:
"five more than the product of two and a number,
decreased by seven"
---
Let the "number" be a.
We are told "five more than . ." means +5,
"the product of two and a number" means 2a,
"decreased by seven" mean -7
Put the statements together to obtain:
+5+2a-7
Simplify to 2a-2
Evaluate when a = 8:
2a-2
2(8)-2
16-2
= 14
Answer:
0.85
Step-by-step explanation:
So theres 4 hours and 60min equals 1 hour, so multiply 4 by 60 to get 240, so theres 240 minutes of time on the mp3. So 1/6 of that total time (240min) was on jazz, so what you do is divide 240 by 6 to get 40, so every 1/6 is 40min. So you could say he spend 40min listening to jazz, or you could say he spent 2/3 of an hour listening to jazz
2) Larger triangle is twice as large as the smaller one so x is 16
3) 16/12.8= 1.25 (This is the scale factor)
for y: 10/1.25=8
for x: 30/1.25=16
4) 8/6.4=1.25 (Scale factor)
for y: 14/1.25=11.2
for x: 15/1.25= 12
5) 22.5/9= 2.5 (scale factor)
for x: 12x2.5=30
for y: 35/2.5= 14
6) No because the scale factor is 2 but 14/8 does not equal to 2
