The value of a share of stock decreases in value at a rate of $1.40 per hour during the first 3.5 hours of trading. Enter and solve an equation to find the decrease in the value of the share of stock during that time. Let x represent the decrease in value of the share of stock during 3.5 hours.


The equation to find the decrease in the value of the share of stock is x / _____ = _______


The decrease in value of the share of stock during 3.5 hours was $________​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x/3.5h = -$1.4

So, x = -$1.4 * 3.5h

= -$4.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your losing $1.4 every hour, the 1.4 is supposed to negative.

Also, since your losing that amount of money for 3.5 hours, we are trying to find the total of how much money is lost in the 3.5 hours. To do this, we have to do x/3.5h = -$1.4. But since you can't do x/3.5, we have to do inverse operation. When you divide 3.5 hours to the other side of the equation it becomes multiplication. So you do -$1.4 times 3.5 hours

and get  -$4.9.

2.There are 21,000 fans at a football game cheering for the home team. The other 40% of the total people in attendance are cheering for the away team. How many people are in attendance at the game?

3.Ashley sees a book bag on sale in a store for $22. This is 20% off the original price. What was the original price of the book bag?

Answers

1. 18 - 40% = 10.8

So the other 40% of students is 10 students. In total there are 28 students

2. 21,000 - 40% = 12,600

There are 33,600 people in attendance.


3. $26.40 is the original price

NUMBER 1

If 18 people is 40% that means the we need to start taking 40% off of numbers

40% of 20 is 12

40% of 25 is 15

40% of 30 is 18

So the answer is 30

NUMBER 2

If 21,000 people is 60% that means 20% is 7,000 people and 7,000x5=35,000 so there is a total of 35,000 people at the game

NUMBER 3

You should start taking 20% off of numbers.

20% of 25 is 20 too low so we need to go higher

20% of 26 is 20.8 still too low so lets keep going

20% of 27 is 21.60 closer but too low

20% of 28 is 22.40 which is too high lets go back since 27 is too low and 28 is too high lets start in between

20% of 27.5 is 22.00

So the answer is $27.5.

Answers

Answer:

The first option is correct, 12/30 and 25/30

Step-by-step explanation:

To get common denominators, you need to find the GFC (greatest common factor) of 5 and 6, which is 30. Then you would need to make the fractions equal the same as the original fractions, by multiplying.

2/5 = ?/30 <- you can see that 30 is 6 times more than 5. so this means you multiply 2 by 6 to get 12. 12/30

5/6 = ?/30 <- you can see that 30 is 5 times more than 6. so this means you multiply 5 by 5 to get 25. 25/30

Answer:

10 + (2 x 3) {2} divided by 4 x (1/2) {3} = 2.375 (2  3/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

2 x 3 is 6 and 6 to the power of 2 is 36, and PEMDAS makes it where you divided 36 by four instead of 46 (10 + 36) divided by 4. 36 divided by 4 = 9. 10 + 9 = 19. Then 1/2 to the third power is 1/8. 19 times 1/8 = 2.375 (2  3/8)

What is the area of the top of the water buoy as shown in the figure?

84.78 square in.
37.68 square in.
113.04 square in.
28.26 square in.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 28.26 square in

Step-by-step explanation:

As, the diameter if the top = 6 inches

And the area of a circle = 3.14(pi) x radius^2

So here radius = Diameter /2 = 6/2 = 3

So radius = 3 inches

So area = 3.14 x (3)^2

= 3.14 x 9

= 28.26 square in

the answer is 28.26 square inch.
