During a period of 30 working days, Deborah was late 80% of the time. How many days was she late?

1 answer:

8 0

Fairly straightforward question. She works 30 days and is late 80% or 0.8
We can model our equation
Num days late = late percentage * num working days
Basically fine portion of working days that she was late.

Num days late = 0.8 * 30=24

So Deborah was late 24 out of 30 working days. Would appreciate a brainliest

There are 1,295 students attending a small university.There are 714 women enrolled. What percent of the students are women. Equa

Semenov [28]

If 1295 × p = 714, then you can rearrange the equation to find the percentage.

You have to get p on its own, so you divide 1295 on both sides of the '='.

1295 × p = 714

p = 714 ÷ 1295

p = <span>0.55135135135...

p </span>× 100 = actual percentage

actual percentage = 55.14%

Yes it does because when you graph it the next point would be (1,0).

Mrs. Ramiriz is making pies to sell at the local farmer’s market. It costs her $5 to make each pie, plus a one-time cost of $30

grin007 [14]

To answer the problem above, we must first define the word break even. Break even means there is no gain or loss, the difference between the capital amount and the sale amount is zero. In equation, let x be the number of pies. 5x + 30 = 12x, $5 times the number of pies plus $30 is equal to $12 times the number of pies sold. The answer is letter C.

The set of points R(-1, 1), S(2, 4), T(6, 8) are collinear. true or false

Harlamova29_29 [7]

R, S and T are collinear if they are in the same exact line.

It is enough to show that slope of RS is equal (or not) to the slope of ST,

slope of RS $=m_R_S= \frac{4-1}{2-(-1)}= \frac{3}{3}=1$

slope of ST $=m_S_T= \frac{8-4}{6-2}= \frac{4}{4}=1$

the lines through R, S and S, T have the same slope so the three points are collinear.

Answer: TRUE
