(12 - 9) / 12 = (40 - x) / 40
3/12 = (40 - x) / 40
40(1/4) = 40 - x
10 = 40 - x
10 - 40 = -x
-30 = -x
30 = x <=== percent decrease from 40 to 30

Bernie helped design a magician costume for a school play. He used 5.75 feet of ribbon for the magician's wand. He used 11.75 fe
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The ribbon cost per foot $0.6 per foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of ribbon used = (5.75 + 11.75) = 17.50 feet

17.50 feet of ribbon cost = $10.50

1 foot of ribbon cost = x

Cross Multiply

17.50 × x = 1 foot × $10.50

x = 1 foot × 10.50/17.50

x = $0.6

The ribbon cost per foot $0.6 per foot

If r=[x,y,z] and r0=[x0,y0,z0], describe the set of all points (x,y,z) such that Ir-r0I =1.
sdas [7]

Answer:

The points (x,y,z) that respond to Ir-r0I =1, are all that describes the form (x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2+(z-z_0)^2=1 with:

-1+x₀<x<1+x₀

-1+y₀<y<1+y₀

-1+z₀<z<1+z₀

Step-by-step explanation:

All points required in this problem came from applying the definition of modulus of a vector:

Ir-r0I =1.

|(x,y,z)-(x_{0},y_{0},z_{0})|=|(x-x_{0},y-y_{0},z-z_{0})|=\sqrt{(x-x_{0})^2+(y-y_{0})^2+(z-z_{0})^2}=1\\(x-x_{0})^2+(y-y_{0})^2+(z-z_{0})^2=1^2=1

Explain how your work your knowledge of place value helps you divide a number in thousands by whole numbers to 10 give a example
Anna71 [15]
Place value is the value each digit has in its position: in order from higher to lower value, there is thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones.
When you divide by 10, you are moving (only once) every digit from its present place value to the right.
For example 6430 : 10= 643, you have moved every digit to the right, making the zero disappear (or better yet, separated by a hidden and in this case useless comma).
