8 is 50% 0f what number

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 'is' in mathematics means equal
'of' in mathematics means multiplication

Translating 8 is 50% of what number into an equation, we get:

8 = 50% * x

50%, or 50 percent, is nothing but 50 over 100 or 50/100, which is the same as 1/2.

8 = 1/2 * x

Multiply 2 on both sides.

8 * 2 = 1/2 * 2 * x

16 = x

x = 16

8 is 50% of 16.
Answer 2
Answer: x=is the number.
50% of x=8
(50/100)x=8
x=(8*100)/50=16

Answer: 8 is 50% of 16

what is there value of y?
what is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x=14

y=30

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+25=3x+53

5x=3x+28

2x=28

x=14

2y+35=95

2y=60

y=30

(I assumed all of the angles are equal, correct me if I'm wrong.)

Answer:x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first understand what we need to do. We need to solve for two variables, x and y. We do these by setting two systems of equations equal to each other. This is easily done for x, but for y the other equation is missing. Keep this in mind for later.

So, we will first start off by solving for x. We do this by using inverse operations.

5x+25=3x+53 We will subtract

5x=3x+28

2x=28 Divide

x=14

You can plug 14 into both the xs and they will be similar, and both will have the similar results once you solve for y and plug it into the equation along with x.

We know that the 5x+25 on the left is adjacent to 2y+35, and so is the second x. Adjacent angles add up to 180 total, and so to solve for y we need to plug 12 in the first x.

5(14)+25=95

180-95=85

85 is the value of 2y+35

We will solve for y just like any other alegrbaic problem

85=2y+35

50=2y

y=25

We know know that y is 25 and x is 14

Plug both values into 2 adjacent angles and they will add up to 180.

Marcus is putting a rectangular fence around his garden to keep the animals from stealing his vegetables. The perimeter of the rectangle is 80 feet . The ratio of the width to the length is 3 to 5. What are the dimension of the rectangle (please help) & show work please

Answers

Ratio of width to length:    W/L = 3/5
5W = 3L  .........(a)

Perimeter = 2*(L+W) = 80

2*(L+W) = 80
(L+W) = 80/2.  Divide both sides by 2.
L+W= 40......(b)


5W = 3L

L + W = 40    Multiply both sides by 5.
5*(L+W) = 5*40
5L+5W = 200.             Recall from (a)   5W = 3L
5L + 3L = 200
8L = 200
L = 200/8
L = 25.

5W = 3L
5W = 3*25
W = 3*25/5
W = 15.

Therefore, the length, L = 25 and width , W = 15.

Show that the area of a square A inscribed in a circle with radius r is A=2r square​

Answers

Answer:

see below and see image.

Step-by-step explanation:

"inscribed" means the four corners (vertices) of the square are on the circle.

The diagonal of the square is the diameter of the circle. Use special right triangles or pythagorean thm to find the side length of the square in terms of r. Use Area formula for a square:

A = s^2 OR s×s
