119.31 is 82% of what number

2 answers:

7 0

Ok, so 82% is the same as 0.82

To have gotten that number, a person would have multiplied the original number with 0.82
so we can go in reverse
x * 0.82 = 119.31
x = 119.31/0.82
x = 145.5

To solve
82% of x = 119.31
rewrite
x = 119.31/0.82
solve
x ≈ 145.5

Hope this helps :)

Sara wants to find the input value that produces the same output for the functions represented by the tables.

Korolek [52]

Answer:

The input value that produces the same output value in both charts is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given two functions $f(x)=-0.5x+2$ and $g(x)=2x-3$ with tables

$\begin{array}{cc}x&f(x)\\-3&3.5\\-2&3\\-1&2.5\\0&2\\1&1.5\\2&1\\3&0.5\end{array}$

and

$\begin{array}{cc}x&g(x)\\-3&\\-2&\\-1&\\0&\\1&\\2&\\3&\end{array}$

First, fill in the second table:

$g(-3)=2\cdot (-3)-3=-6-3=-9\\ \\g(-2)=2\cdot (-2)-3=-7\\ \\g(-1)=2\cdot (-1)-3=-5\\ \\g(0)=2\cdot 0-3=-3\\ \\g(1)=2\cdot 1-3=-1\\ \\g(2)=2\cdot 2-3=1\\ \\g(3)=2\cdot 3-3=3$

Hence, the second table is

$\begin{array}{cc}x&g(x)\\-3&-9\\-2&-7\\-1&-5\\0&-3\\1&-1\\2&1\\3&3\end{array}$

The input value that produces the same output value in both charts is 2.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

A). Participle phrase.

Step-by-step explanation:

'Participle phrases' are defined as the phrases that consist of a participle(present or past) followed by modifiers and their object plus any/or complements. These phrases primarily function as adjectives by providing information about a noun or pronoun in the sentence.

In the given sentence, the underlined portion('stepping from the embrace') is a participle phrase as it begins with a participle('present as it ends with 'ing') followed by the modifier prepositional phrase 'from the embrace'(as an adverb). It is functioning as an adjective as it modifies the pronoun 'she' in the sentence. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

A contractor leans a 21-foot ladder against a building. The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder is 9 feet more tha

melomori [17]

Answer:

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder = 18.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder is 9 feet more than the distance from the building to the base of the ladder.

distance from the building to the base of the ladder.= X

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder = 9+x

Solving the triangle using Pythagorean theorem

X² +(x+9)²= 21²

X² + x² + 18x +81= 441

2x² +18x -360 = 0

X² +9x -180 = 0

X= (-9-28.3)/2 or (-9+28.3)/2

Definitely x is going to be a positive number

X= (-9+28.3)/2

X=9.65 feet

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder = 9+x

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder = 9+9.65

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder = 18.65

The distance from the ground to the top of the ladder = 18.7 feet
