Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

12.5/100 = 0.125

Since there were 2 zeros, we took the point 2 places back.

0.125 in fraction = 1/8

1/8 x 72/1 = 9/1

= 9

Answer:

A. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

% = 1\100

SO..

12.5% = 12.5\100

the word 'of' is the same as the mathematical multiply.

12.5\100 x 72 = 9

Please answer a through d
Elza [17]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 100 lbs on Earth is 16.6 lbs on the moon.

a. The independent variable is weight. The gravity of the Moon and the gravity of the Earth are constant. Weight can change, but gravity is a constant.

b. An equation that relates the weight of someone on the Moon who travels to the Earth:

100 / 16.6 = 6.02. Take the Moon weight and multiply by 6.02:

Moon Weight * 6.02 = Earth Weight.

Proof:

16.6 * 6.024 = 99.99 - approximately 100 lbs Earth weight.

c. A 185 lb astronaut on Earth would weigh:

16.6 / 100 = .166. Take the Earth weight and multiply by .166:

185 * .166 = 30 lbs on the Moon.

d. A person who weighs 50 lbs on the Moon:

50 * 6.024 = 301.2 lbs on Earth.

Hope this helps! Have a good day and year! :)

Find the Measure of angle O<br> (see image)<br> Only real answers, please
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

From the given figure we can see that :---

MN||PO, MN=PO and MP=NO

Therefore, angle M=angle N (adjacent sides of the trapezoid)

(8x - 16)  =  (6x + 20) \\ 2x = 36 \\  \boxed{x = 18}

angle M=angle N= (6×18)+20=108+20 =128°

angle O =(180°-128°)=52°

<h3>Hence, angle O is <u>52°.</u></h3>

Write a list of 6 ordered pairs to show the height of the candle in inches (y) as a function of time in hours (x) from the first
Bumek [7]

A function assigns the values. The list of 6 ordered pairs to show the height of the candle inches are (1,8.5), (1,8), (1,7.5), (1,7), (1,6.5), and (1,6).

<h3>What is a Function?</h3>

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.

The rate at which the candle burns down is 0.5 inches per hour. Now, if we substitute the value of the point (0,9) in the function of a line, and the rate as well, we will get,

y = mx +c

9 = -0.5(0) + c

c = 9

Now, the equation that can represent the height of the candle at any hour after it is lit will be,

y= -0.5x+9

substitute the value of x as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to get the value of y and form ordered pairs.

  • y=-0.5(1)+9 = 8.5 inches  ⇒ (1,8.5)
  • y=-0.5(2)+9 = 8 inches  ⇒ (1,8)
  • y=-0.5(3)+9 = 7.5 inches  ⇒ (1,7.5)
  • y=-0.5(4)+9 = 7 inches  ⇒ (1,7)
  • y=-0.5(5)+9 = 6.5 inches  ⇒ (1,6.5)
  • y=-0.5(6)+9 = 6 inches  ⇒ (1,6)

Hence, the list of 6 ordered pairs to show the height of the candle inches are (1,8.5), (1,8), (1,7.5), (1,7), (1,6.5), and (1,6).
