Answer:

A. 1.2x = 78

B. x = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Just informally, first:

x is the number that we don't know. 120% of that number is a number BIGGER than that number. 120% of x is 78. So 78 is BIGGER than the number that we don't know.

120% of x = 78

Change 120% to a decimal by moving the decimal two places to the left. Multiply.

1.2x = 78

To solve, divide both sides by 1.2

x = 78/1.2

x = 65

LMN = QPR <br><br><br>What is the value of x in degrees?
Paul [167]

Answer:

x = 72 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If triangle LMN = triangle QPR, that means:

- angle L (x) equals angle Q

- angle M equals angle P

- angle N equals angle R

We know angle Q equals 72 degrees and we know angle Q equals angle L. Since angle L is the "x" we are looking for, we know that x = 72 degrees.

A pail hold 6 3/4 gallon of water. how much is this in cups
Ber [7]
There are 16 cups in 1 gallon so you would have to turn the denominator in the fraction into a 16 meaning you would multiply by 4 (because 4 goes into 16, 4 times). Your new fraction is 12/16. now you do 6 gallons*16 cups and you get 96 cups. Then you add the fraction onto 96 and you would be adding 12. Your final answer is 108 cups in 6 3/4 gallons

A given line has the equation 2x + 12y = −1. What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to
VikaD [51]

Answer:

y = 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- interceot form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 2x + 12y = - 1 into this form

Subtract 2x from both sides

12y = - 2x - 1 ( divide all terms by 12 )

y = - \frac{1}{6} x - \frac{1}{12} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{6}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{6} } = 6

Note the line passes through (0, 9) on the y- axis ⇒ c = 9

y = 6x + 9 ← equation of perpendicular line

HELP ASAP
galben [10]

I don’t have a very detailed explanation, however the answer should be “A 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin followed by a translation 1 unit to the left”.

You can clearly see a 90° angle here, it’s obvious. Also, the polygon switch counterclockwise. so, you can see.

hope I helped ^^
