why can you use cross products to solve the proportion 18/5 = x/100 for x ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, you can use cross products to solve for x in this proportion. Also, x is 360.

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, you can use cross products to solve for x in that proportion.

Here's how you do it :

[tex]\frac{18}{5} = \frac{x}{100}[/tex]

We cross product, getting :

18 * 100 = 5 * x

1800 = 5x

Divide by 5 on both sides to get x by itself.

360 = x

Yes, you can use cross products to solve for x in this proportion. Also, x is 360.

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

m<PQR = (2x + 6)°

m<RPQ = (x - 7)°

m<QRS = (5x - 17)°

<PQR and <RPQ are interior angles opposite to the exterior angle <RPQ.

Therefore,

m<PQR + m<RPQ = m<QRS (Exterior Angle Theorem of a Triangle)

Substitute in the values

2x + 6 + x - 7 = 5x - 17

Add like terms

3x - 1 = 5x - 17

Collect like terms

3x - 5x = 1 - 17

-2x = -16

-2x/-2 = -16/-2

x = 8

A store only sells 20-pound bags of ice. Over the weekend, the store sells 800 bags of ice, making $3,400. On Monday, the store sells 80 bags of ice. How much money does the store make selling ice on Monday?

Answers

£3400 / 800 bags of ice
= £4.25 per bag

80 X £4.25 = £340

The amount of money the store makes selling ice by the same ratio will be $340.

What are the ratio and proportion?

The ratio is the division of the two numbers.

For example, a/b, where a will be the numerator and b will be the denominator.

Proportion is the relation of a variable with another. It could be direct or inverse.

As per the given,

The store sells 800 bags of ice, making $3,400.

Ratio = 3400/800

With the same ratio,

The store sells x amount of bags of ice,

x/80 = 3400/800

x = $340

Hence "The store will make $340 from selling ice using the same ratio".

One-third of a number decreased by six equals eight. What is the number?

Answers

Mark brainliest please

Answer is 42

Explaination


Consider the given problem :

Let the number be x,

This can be expressed mathematically as ,
One-third of a number written as 1/3 x

One-third of a number, decreased by six expressed as 1/3x -6

then whole expression become,

1/3x -6 = 8

Now, solving for the above expression

Adding 6 both sides, we have,

(1/3)x - 6 = 8
           +6   +6

It becomes 1/3x+6-6=8 +6
1/3x = 14

Multiply both side by 3 , we get,

3* 1/3x = 14*3

x= 42

Thus, the number is 42.

O It has infinitely many solutions.
It has no solution.
It has one solution (2, -3).
It has one solution (4,0).

Answers

Answer:

(0, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following systems of linear equations;

3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1

16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2

We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;

2 * (3x - 2y = 12)

6x - 4y = 24

16x - 4y = 24

Subtracting the two equations, we have;

(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)

-10x - 0 = 0

-10x = 0

x = -0/10 = 0

Next, we would find the value of y;

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

Check:

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2(-6) = 12

0 - (-12) = 12

12 = 12

Answers

Question

You will purchase some cds and dvds. If you purchase 13 cds and 5 dvds, it will cost you $96.70; if you purchase 5 cds and 12 dvds, it will cost you $134.50. Write and solve a system of equations to solve for the cost of each cd and the cost of each dvd.

Answer:

Cost of cd = $3.72

Cost of dvd = $9.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a cd be c

Let the cost of a dvd be d

From the second statement:

If you purchase 13 cds and 5 dvds, it will cost you $96.70

This means that

13c + 5d = 96.70            ----------------(i)

Also, from the third statement:

if you purchase 5 cds and 12 dvds, it will cost you $134.50

This means that;

5c + 12d = 134.50            ---------------------(ii)

The equations to solve are equations (i) and (ii)

13c + 5d = 96.70

5c + 12d = 134.50

Multiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 13. i.e

5 x (13c + 5d = 96.70)

13 x (5c + 12d = 134.50)

This will give

65c + 25d = 483.5

65c + 156d = 1748.5

Find the difference of the two equations

    65c + 25d = 483.5

-

    65c + 156d = 1748.5

    0   -  131d   = - 1265

This gives;

-131d = -1265

Divide both sides by -131

[tex]\frac{-131d}{-131} = \frac{-1265}{-131}[/tex]

d = 9.66

This means that the cost of a dvd which is d = $9.66

Now substitute the value of d = 9.66 into equation (i) as follows;

13c + 5(9.66) = 96.70  

Expand the above and solve for c

13c + 48.3 = 96.70

13c = 48.4

c = [tex]\frac{48.4}{13}[/tex]

c = 3.72

This means that the cost of a cd which is c = $3.72

Find z such that 3.8% of the standard normal curve lies to the left of z. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

z = 1.77.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X, which is also the area of the normal curve to the left of Z. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Find z such that 3.8% of the standard normal curve lies to the left of z

Thus, z with a z-score of 0.038. Looking at the z-table, this is z = 1.77.
