Students from Mr. Caldwell's Spanish class are saving money for a summer
trip to Barcelona, Spain. Each student needs to raise $1,080 to be able to
attend the trip. This amount represents an increase of 12.5% over the cost of
the trip last year. How much did the trip to Barcelona cost last year?
O $850
$960
$1,215
$1,030

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$960

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original amount be = x

Percentage increase is equal to = 12.5%

final amount = original amount + increase

final amount = x + 0.125x

final amount = 1.125x

final amount = 1080 = 1.125x

and then solve for x

[tex]x = \frac{1080}{1.125} \\ \\ x = 960[/tex]

so in the end x is equal to $960

Solve the equation: 1080 = 1.25x

Lena is asked to write an explicit formula for the graphed geometric sequence.

On a coordinate plane, 3 points are plotted. The points are (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25).

What value, written as a decimal, should Lena use as the common ratio

Answers

Answer:

Common Ratio = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points: (1, 1), (2, 2.5), (3, 6.25)

Required

Determine the common ratio

The points can be rewritten as:

x --- f(x)

1 ---- 1

2 --- 2.5

3 ---- 6.25

The data under the x column are the domain of the function and in this case,  they are not needed;

To calculate common ration, Lena should use data in function f(x) column

Common ratio is calculated by dividing a term by the previous term;

Hence;

Common Ratio = 2.5/1 or 6.25/2.5

Common Ratio = 2.5 or 2.5

Notice that, the results are the same;

Hence, the usable common ratio is 2.5

Answer: 2.5 or "C"

Answer:

C. ²¹⁄₂₀

Step-by-step explanation:

OKOKOK DON'T WORRY I'M HERE :)))

--

When multiplying fractions, you multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together.

The numerators here are 3 and 7. Multiply those and you get 21 (7 x 3 = 21).

The denominators here are 4 and 5. Multiply those and you get 20 (4 x 5 = 20).

Then you put the newly-multiplied numerator over the newly-multiplied denominator and you get ²¹⁄₂₀.

7(8+a)=189 please help and give me step by step ​

Answers

Answer: a = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7 (8 + a) = 189

Divide 7 on both sides

7 (8 + a) / 7 = 189 / 7

8 + a = 27

Subtract 8 on both sides

8 + a - 8 = 27 - 8

a = 19

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions

Well, we can use the distributive property:

If a ray bisects a right angle, then each newly formed angle measures 45 degrees.
A) Sometimes
B) Always
C) Never

Answers

B) Always!

This is because ‘bisect’ means to spilt exactly in half. If you split 90 degrees in half, you get 45 degrees.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Bisects means to divide in half

So the angles are each 45 degrees

if g(x) is x-3 then what is g(3x)

Answers

Answer:  3x-3

Work Shown:

g(x) = x-3

g(3x) = 3x-3

We simply replaced every x with 3x. There isn't much else to show in terms of work. I suppose you could factor out the GCF to say g(3x) = 3(x-1), but that isn't much of a simplification in my opinion.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The meaning of g(x) = x - 3 is that whatever you put in the x on the left, you will put in the x on the right.

g(3x) = 3x - 3 is the correct answer.

Determine whether the following polygons are similar.

Answers

Answer:

They are not similar.

To easily check if they are similar, you only need to look at the degrees angles, since if the angles are the same, the lengths of the sides will always come out to be similar somehow.

Those triangles possess right angles as you can see the little square thingie in the corners.

Those are 90 degrees, and you can add the 30 degrees in the left shape to 90 to get 120.

There are 180 degrees in a triangle, so 180 - 120 = 60.

Therefore, the unknown angle is 60.

A 30 60 90 triangle is called a special right triangle since there are many useful ratios hidden inside.

The other triangle has a 55 degree angle which is not on the first, so they must not be similar.

Pls brainly dont delete this link, its useful.

Answers

The distance between Rachel and Amos after one hour is 15 miles.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Distance travelled by Rachel after one hour = 9 mph * 1 h = 9 miles

Distance travelled by Amos after one hour = 12 mph * 1 h = 12 miles

Let x represent the distance between Rachel and Amos, hence:

x² = 9² + 12²

x = 15

The distance between Rachel and Amos after one hour is 15 miles.

∣x−18∣=5 absolute value

Answers

Answer

x = 13 or x = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-18| = 5 means there are two possibilities.

x-18 can equal 5 or equal -5 because absolute value sign makes everything inside it positive.

so you can write two equations and solve

first is x-18 = 5

x-18 + 18 = 5 + 18

x = 23

the second is x - 18 = -5

x - 18 + 18 = -5 + 18

x = 13

The two solutions are 13 and 23.

a colleague needs to move a 500 pound object that's on a lever. the fulcrum is 6 inches from the object. If your colleague weighs 180 pounds how far will your colleague need to be from the fulcrum to move the object? Use the formula B = (P x A) ÷ W, and round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easier way to figure this is by using the concept of torque in physics. If the torque of the man is greater than that experienced by the box, the lever will tilt in the man's favor (in other words, he will move down and the box will be lifted). Torque is found by multiplying the perpendicular force by the length of the lever arm. Because we want the man's torque to be greater than the box's torque, the inequality is:

[tex]\tau_{man}>\tau_{box}[/tex] and

[tex]180r>500(.1524)[/tex] That decimal is 6 inches in terms of meters.

180r > 76.2 so

r > .42 meters or `16.67 inches. The man has to sit at a distance greater than 16.67 inches in order for the box to be lifted by the lever.

Americans eat 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If all these hot dogs were laid end to end they
would circle the earth 21.5 times. If the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,860 miles, and one mile is
5,280 feet, find the length (in inches) of each hot dog. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hot dogs eaten = 7 000 000 000

Circumference of the earth = 24 860 miles

21.5 times the circumference of the Earth = 21.5 x 24 860 miles

                                                = 534490 miles

But,

1 mile = 5280 feet

So that,

534490 miles = X

X = 5280 x 534490

   = 287707200 feet

Also,

1 feet = 12 inches

Then,

287707200 feet = Y

Y = 12 x 287707200

   = 3452486400 inches

Thus,

the length of each hot dog = [tex]\frac{3452486400}{7000000000}[/tex]

                     = 0.4932

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Let m∠BCE = x

Then m∠ACE = x as well since CE is bisecting ∠ACB.

m∠ACD + x + x = 180° ⇒ m∠ACD = 180° - 2x

Consider ΔBEC

Since BE = EC, the opposite angles are congruent:

∠BCE ≅ ∠CBE

Then:

m∠CBE = m∠BCE = x

Find the angle BEC:

m∠BEC = 180° - (x + x) = 180° - 2x

Comparing the above we see that:

m∠BEC = m∠ACDproved
