Hello! I can help you with this! So, you and 3 friends are 4 people. You split $536. To find the amount each of you got, Do division. 536/4 is 134. Each friend got $134 in the first month. You made 224 in 2 months. Let’s subtract to see how much more each of them got. 224 - 134 is 90. Now, multiply by 4 to find out how much profit was made. 90 * 4 is 360. The shop made $360 in the second month.

The percent decrease from 12 to 9 is equal to the percent decrease from 40 to what number
Zina [86]
(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

ahrayia [7]
Let s be the distance traveled the second day.

1.5s+s=1380

2.5s=1380

s=552

So on the first day he traveled 1380-552=828 miles.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

120*2.75*60/5280

= 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

So James is walking at 120 steps a minute, there are 60 minutes in one hour, and 5,280 feet in a mile. So, to find how quickly James is walking, we multiply how many steps he is taking a minute by how much distance each step is (120 * 2.75) that gives us how much distance in one minute, so we then multiply by 60 because there are 60 minutes in one hour. Then divide the entire equation by how many feet are in one mile (5,280) giving us the answer 3.75 miles per hour. And the equation 120*2.75*60/5280
