A 6-pound watermelon costs $2.40 before a 30% discount. Which equation would allow you to find the discounted price of the watermelon?

Answers

Answer 1
That equation would look like this:

2.4 - 2.4 * .3 = p

p = price
Answer 2
The unit price of watermelon is

$2.40
--------- = $0.40/lb.
  6 lb

The discounted price of the watermelon would be (1.00-0.30)($0.40)

= 0.70($0.40) = $0.28/lb

Frank needs to memorize words on a vocabulary list for Latin class. He has memorized
6

of the words, which is two-thirds of the list. How many words are on the list?

Answers

There are 9 words on the list. If you see that 2/3 x 3/2 = 1, you can multiply 6 by 3/2 to get 9, since this is a proportion problem.

Frank has memorized 6 words which is two-thirds of his vocabulary list, so by dividing 6 by 2/3, we find out that the total number of words on the list is 9.

Frank has memorized 6 words on his Latin vocabulary list, which is two-thirds of the total number of words. To find out the total number of words on the list, we can set up a proportion where 6 words corresponds to 2/3. Therefore, we need to find a number that, when multiplied by 3/2 or 1.5, gives us 6.

We can set up the equation like this: 2/3 * total words = 6 words. To find the total words, we divide 6 by 2/3:

total words = 6 ÷ (2/3)

total words = 6 * 3/2

total words = 9

So, the vocabulary list has a total of 9 words.

What’s 2(2x+10)=3(x+6)

Answers

2(2x + 10) = 3(x + 6)

Let's use the distributive property.
This means that you have to multiply the term in front of the parenthesis with every term inside the parenthesis.

After using the distributive property, you get

4x + 20 = 3x + 18

Now, subtract both sides by 3x

x + 20 = 18

Subtract both sides by 20

x = -2

That's your answer. Have an awesome day! :)

A hole was dug 2 3/8 feet deep for a fence post. The fence post is 6 feet long. How far above the ground will the fence post be when it is placed in the hole? Enter your answer as a mixed number, in simplified form, in the box.

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP

Answers

[tex]\text{Answer: The fence post will be }3\frac{5}{8}\ feet\text{ far above the ground when it is placed in the hole.}[/tex]

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of hole dug for a fence post is given by

[tex]2\frac{3}{8}\ feet=\frac{19}{8}\ feet[/tex]

Length of the fence post = 6 feet

we need to find the length of the fence post above the ground is seen when it is placed in the hole.

So, Length of the fence post above the ground is given by

[tex]6-\frac{19}{8}\\\\=\frac{48-19}{8}\\\\=\frac{29}{8}\\\\=3\frac{5}{8}\ feet[/tex]

[tex]\text{Hence, the fence post will be }3\frac{5}{8}\ feet\text{ far above the ground when it is placed in the hole.}[/tex]

In a video game, Val scored 30% fewer points than Peeta. Peeta scored 1060 points. How many points did Val score?

Answers

1060 x .30= 318
1060-318=742
Val scored 742 points
Val (huh, I didn't know that was an actual name) scored around 742 points, 30% fewer than Peeta. Since, 30% of 1060 can be found by multiplying 30% as a decimal (0.30), which means that 30% of 1060 is 318. However, it doesn't say that Val scored 30% of the points Peeta scored. No, it says that Val scored 30% LESS than the score Peeta scored. So, we're subtracting.

1060 - 318 = 742

So, Val scored 742 points.

A would have to be 12 because if you find their factors

What is ratio?

The ratio is defined as the comparison of two quantities of the same units that indicates how much of one quantity is present in the other quantity.

Given

A:B = 4:7

A + B = 44

Let the common factor between A and B is x

then

4x + 7x = 44

11x = 44

x = 4

Therefore,

A = 16

B = 28

Hence, 16 and 28 are A and B respectively.

Which set is the subset of every set

Answers

The empty or null set.
Answer:

The set which is the subset of every set is:

                   Empty set or null set.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set--

A set is a well defined collection of the distinct objects.

The number of objects in the set is the cardinality of the set.

The set whose cardinality is zero is known as the empty set or the null set.

i.e. it is the set which is having zero element i.e. no element.

Such a set is unique.

Also, the null set or the empty set is the subset of every set.

In skate boarding an ollie is a move in which the athlete pops the skateboard in the air, making it appear that the board and skateboarder are attached.At the 2009 X Games, one skateboarder completed 34 allies in 30 seconds. if he could keep up that rate, what would be his rate of allies per minute? What would be his rate per hour

Answers

Final answer:

The skateboarder's rate of ollies per minute would be 68 ollies per minute. The skateboarder's rate of ollies per hour would be 4080 ollies per hour.

Explanation:

To find the rate of ollies per minute, we need to divide the number of ollies completed in 30 seconds by the number of seconds in a minute. In this case, the skateboarder completed 34 ollies in 30 seconds, so the rate of ollies per minute would be:

Rate per minute = (34 ollies / 30 seconds) × (60 seconds / 1 minute) = 68 ollies per minute

To find the rate of ollies per hour, we need to divide the number of ollies completed in 30 seconds by the number of seconds in an hour. In this case, the skateboarder completed 34 ollies in 30 seconds, so the rate of ollies per hour would be:

Rate per hour = (34 ollies / 30 seconds) × (3600 seconds / 1 hour) = 4080 ollies per hour

Expand and simplify [tex] (3x-2)^{2} [/tex]

Answers

You can just 1) multiply the binomial by itself, or you can use 2) the square of a binomial pattern. I'll show it to you both ways.

1) Multiply the binomial by itself.

(3x - 2)^2 = (3x - 2)(3x - 2) =

Multiply every term of the first binomial by every term of the second binomial, then collect like terms. (This is often called using FOIL.)

= 9x^2 - 6x - 6x + 4

= 9x^2 - 12x + 4

2) Use the square of a binomial pattern

The square of a binomial is

(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab - b^2

a^2 is the square of the first term.
b^2 is the square of the second term.
-2ab is the product of the two terms and 2.

You have

(3x - 2)^2,
where the first term is 3x, and the second term is -2

square the first term: 9x^2
square the last term: 4
the product of the terms and 2 is: -12x

Put it all together, and you get

9x^2 - 12x + 4

just like we got above with the other method.

find the slope of the line through P(5,7) and Q( -1 + 7)

Answers

P(5,7) and Q( -1, + 7)

slope = (7 - 7)/(5+1) = 0/6 = 0
slope = 0

Final answer:

The slope of the line through points P(5,7) and Q(-1,7) is calculated to be 0, indicating a horizontal line.

Explanation:

To find the slope of the line through points P(5,7) and Q(-1,7), we can use the formula for the slope of a line through two points: slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). In this case, the coordinates for P are (x1, y1) = (5, 7) and the coordinates for Q are (x2, y2) = (-1, 7).

Plugging these values into the slope formula, we get:

m = (7 - 7) / (-1 - 5)

m = 0 / (-6)

m = 0

So the slope of the line is 0, which means that the line is horizontal.

If a bookshelf is 28 1/8 inches long,how many 1 7/8 inch thick books will it hold?

Answers

I believe the correct answer is 15, because 15/8 x 15/1= 225/8 and when you simplify that you get 28 with 1/8 left over.

Answer: Bookshelf can hold 15 books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The length of the book shelf = [tex]28\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex] inches

In improper fraction ,  [tex]28\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{8(28)+1}{8}=\dfrac{225}{8}[/tex]

i.e. Length of the book shelf = [tex]\dfrac{225}{8}[/tex] inches

Similarly, Thickness of a book = [tex]1\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{8(1)+7}{8}=\dfrac{15}{8}[/tex] inches

Now, the number of books the shelf can hold =  Length of the bookshelf ÷Thickness of a book

[tex]=\dfrac{225}{8}\div\dfrac{15}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{225}{8}\times\dfrac{8}{15} \\\\=\dfrac{225}{15}=15[/tex]

Hence, the bookshelf can hold 15 books.

D. The number is divisible by 2.

Answers

The answer is definitely not B! Maybe C???

Answer:  Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

"A number is divisible by 2 if even."

So, the conclusion of the conditional is that

"If a number is even, then the number is divisible by 2."

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.
