Explain how 20% can be different amount,

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

As finding 10% of a number means to divide by 10, it is common to think that to find 20% of a number you should divide by 20 etc. Remember, to find 10% of a number means dividing by 10 because 10 goes into 100 ten times. Therefore, to find 20% of a number, divide by 5 because 20 goes into 100 five times.

During second period, Bonnie completed a grammar worksheet. She got 18 out of 20 questions correct. What percentage did Bonnie get correct?

Answers

Answer:

90% correct

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to make calculating easy and to do this, you multiply write out 18 out of 20 like a fraction, 18/20, and multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 5 because 20*5 = 100. 18*5 = 90. 90/100 is the same thing as 90%. Hope this helps!

Answer:

  0.40+2.20i

Step-by-step explanation:

To clear the denominator of its imaginary part, multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

  [tex]\dfrac{3+4i}{2-i}=\dfrac{(3+4i)(2+i)}{(2-i)(2+i)}=\dfrac{6-4+3i+8i}{4+1}=\dfrac{2+11i}{5}\\\\=\boxed{0.40+2.2i}[/tex]

_____

Additional comment

This "multiply by the conjugate" is also used to clear radicals from the denominator. It takes advantage of the factoring of the difference of squares:

  (a -b)(a +b) = a² -b²

If y varies inversely as (x-3). If y = 5 when x =7 find y when x=5

Answers

Given that y varies inversely as (x-3) .When y is 5 x is 7 . We need to find out the value of y when x is 5 .

According to the Question ,

[tex]\sf\longrightarrow y \propto \dfrac{1}{x-3}\\\\\sf\longrightarrow y =\dfrac{k}{x-3}[/tex]

where k is a constant .

And ,

[tex]\sf\longrightarrow 5 =\dfrac{k}{7}\\[/tex]

a rectangle is 40cm long and 30cm wide, use a scale of 1cm to represent 10cm to draw a scale diagram of the rectangle on the grid.​

Answers

Hello mariamhifzur!

Given,

A rectangle is 40 cm long & 30 cm wide. So,

Length = 40 cmWidth = 30 cm

Now, using a scale of 1 cm to represent 10 cm we need to draw a scale diagram of the rectangle on the grid.​

At first we need to convert the measurements of the rectangle in real life to its scale measurements.  In the question given, we need to convert 10 cm to 1 cm in the scale. So,

Length = 40 cm = 4 cm (in the scale figure)Width = 30 cm = 3 cm (in the scale figure)

Now, suppose each grid is equal to 1 cm. Then, we can take the measurements as :

Length = 4 cm = 4 boxes/gridsWidth = 3 cm = 3 boxes/grids

Let's draw the figure now. Our rectangle looks like ... (see the attachment).

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point (-4, 5).

Equation of perpendicular line:

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y= 3x+17; y= -\frac13x +\frac{11}3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First problem. If you want a parallel to a given line, you keep the slope.

Then we use the point-slope form of a line

[tex]y-y_0=m(x-x_0)[/tex] and we plug in there everything we need.

[tex]y-5=3(x+4) \rightarrow y=3x+12+5\\y=3x+17[/tex]

The second is quite similar. This time we want the perpendicular. It means that the product of the slopes has to be -1.

[tex]3\cdot m = -1 \rightarrow m=-\frac13[/tex]

At this point we have everything, let's replace and write down the line in a better looking form

[tex]y-5=-\frac13(x+4) \rightarrow y= -\frac13 x -\frac43 +5\\y= -\frac13x -\frac43 +\frac{15}3 \rightarrow y= -\frac13x +\frac{11}3[/tex]

Find the slope of each line.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 conditions that have to be met before you can declare what the slope is.

1. y has to be on one side of the equation.

2. y must have a coefficient of +1

3. the other side contains the x value. It can have any number as the slope which is in front of x.  

4. The value of the number by itself which is not connected to x or y can also be  any value including the irrational numbers.

Examples

y = 5x + 4

slope =  5

y intercept = 4

y = πx + sqrt(5)

slope = pi

y intercept = sqrt(5)

Answer to your question

slope = 7/5

y intercept = 5
