Suppose 15% Of X Equals 20% Of Y. What Percentage Of X Is Y?a) 5 B) 35 C) 75 D) 133 1/5 E) 300
Answer 2

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. x is 133¹/₃% of y. The correct option is D.

What are Percentages?

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Given that 15% of x equals 20% of y. Therefore, we can write,

15% of x = 20% of y

(15/100) × x = (20/100) × y

Multiply both the sides of the equation by 100,

(15/100) × x × 100 = (20/100) × y × 100

15x = 20y

x/y = 20/15

Divide both the sides of the equation by 5,

x/y = 4/3

Now, the percentage of x that is y is,

Percentage = (x/y) × 100%

                   = (x/y) × 100%

                   = (4/3) × 100%

                   = 133.33%

                   = 133 ¹/₃ %

Hence, x is 133.33¹/₃% of y.

Nate is saving money for the class trip to Chicago. He already has 300$ saved up so far and can save an additional 50$ each month. If the trip costs 850 how many months will it take him to have enough for the trip?

Answers

Answer:

11 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Nate needs $850 total, and he already has $300. So, the money left that he needs is 850-300 which is $550.

Now, he can save $50 each month, and we need to find the amount of months, x, it will take to reach his goal.

He needs $550, to the equation is:

50x=550

We need to isolate x, so we divide both sides by 50.

x=11

It will take Nate 11 months to save for the trip.

Answer:

11 months

Step-by-step explanation:

850-300=550

550÷50=11

A line has a slope of Negative three-fourths and passes through the point (–5, 4). Which is the equation of the line?
y = negative three-fourths x + one-fourth
y = negative three-fourths x + 4
y = negative three-fourths x minus 2
y = negative three-fourths x minus one-fourth

Answers

The answer is A. y=-3/4x+1/4

The required equation of the line is y = (-3/4)x - 2 which passes through the point (–5, 4). The correct answer would be an option (C).

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of a line is defined as the gradient of the line. It is denoted by m

Slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ -x₁ )

Let the required equation of the line would be as:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Since the line passes through the point (–5, 4) and slope m = -3/4

So substitute the values in the above equation, and we

y - (-5) = (-3/4)(x - 4)

y + 5 = (-3/4)x -  (-3/4)4

y + 5 = (-3/4)x + 3

y = (-3/4)x + 3 - 5

y = (-3/4)x - 2

Thus, the required equation of the line is y = (-3/4)x - 2.

If the sinø=7/12, what is cosø?

Answers

Answer:

If the sinø=7/12, cosø is [tex]\frac{\sqrt{95} }{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given sinФ = 7/12

We need to find cosФ

The basic trigonometric functions of right triangle are:

[tex]sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

We need values of adjacent and hypotenuse to find cosФ

Using Pythagoras theorem we can find the value of adjacent

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2= (Opposite)^2+(Adjacent)^2[/tex]

We have Hypotenuse= 12 and Opposite = 7 (because [tex]sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] and we are given [tex]sin\theta=\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

Inserting values and finding adjacent:

[tex](Hypotenuse)^2= (Opposite)^2+(Adjacent)^2\\(12)^2=(7)^2+(Adjacent)^2\\144=49+(Adjacent)^2\\144-49=(Adjacent)^2\\95=(Adjacent)^2\\\sqrt{(Adjacent)^2} =\sqrt{95}\\Adjacent=\sqrt{95}[/tex]

So, value of Adjacent is [tex]\sqrt{95}[/tex]

Now finding cosФ

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Adjacent = [tex]\sqrt{95}[/tex], hypotenuse = 12

[tex]cos\theta=\frac{\sqrt{95} }{12}[/tex]

So, If the sinø=7/12, cosø is [tex]\frac{\sqrt{95} }{12}[/tex]

use the numbers 1,3,4,6 exactly once with any basic math operation(multiplication,division,addition and subtraction) to total 24​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 4*6! We have to play with these numbers (1,3, and 4) to create 4, or we have to play with these numbers (1,3, and 6) to create 6.

If you divide 6 by 1/4, you will get 24.

If you divide 4 by 1/6, you will get 24.

How to create 1/4 from 1,3, and 4?

How to create 1/6 from 1,3, and 6?

Creating 1/4 from 1,3, and 4 is possible by doing this: 1–3/4, it is =1/4!

So, the answer is 6/[1–3/4]=24.

Among the given numbers you can see that 6*4 gives you 24 but you have to use 1 and 3 .

You can't multiply 1 and 3 in numerator because you won't get 24, and you can't even divide it by 1,3 .

So only way is to get 1 in the denominator which can be obtained by

6/(1–(3/4)

which simplifies to 6/(1/4) = 24

hours will he need to work before he can buy his new video game? Make and equation

Answers

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

39 - 14 = 25

5 x 5 = 25

14 + 25 = 39

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

John needs $39.00, he has $14 now, and He earns $5 a week working. x= how many hours.

Start by setting the equation,

            $39.00= $5x + $14.00

Then solve by

1) subtracting 14 from both sides;

39(-14)= 5x+14(-14), by subtracting 14 on both sides you cancelled out the 14;

39 -14 = 5x  becomes $25= 5x      (39 -14 =25)

2) divide both sides by 5 to get x alone

25 (/5)=5x (/5) which becomes 25/5=x

3) 25/5 is 5

John must work 5 hours to have enough money to buy his video game.

393.3 in 10 years investment

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not well structured. We can say;

$393.3 in 10 years investment at rate of 10% is equivalent to what?

Given

Amount invested = $393.3 (principal)

Time = 10years

Rate = 10% (assumed rate)

Required

Amount after 10 years

Amount = Principal + Interest

First we need to get the simple interest using the formula

SI = PRT/100

SI = $393.3 * 10 * 10/100

SI = $393.3*100/100

SI = $393.3

Amount in 10years = $393.3 + $393.3

Amount in 10years = $786.6

Hence $393.3 in 10 years investment at rate of 10% is equivalent to $786.6.

Note that the rate was assumed. Any value of the rate can be used. Just employ the same calculation steps.

I got 46, which I can then use to form the equation (9x+1)=46. I subtracted 1 from both sides to get rid of the 1 (since we're finding what x equals to), I then got 9x=45. After that, I divided 9 from both sides and got the answer x=5.
