Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: The team's win-loss record that year is 1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

During the 2017 Major League Baseball season the Cleveland Indians played 162 games.

Let x = the number of games that the

Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season.

This means that the number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season would be x + 42.

Total number of games played = sum of games won + sum of games lost. This is expressed as

162 = x + 42 + x

2x + 42 = 162

2x = 162-42 = 120

x = 120/2 = 60

Number of games that the Cleveland Indians lost during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60

The number of games that the Cleveland Indians won during the 2017 Major League Baseball season is 60 + 42 = 102

The team's win-loss record that year

would be wins/loses

= 102/60 = 1.7

James works as a waiter.Bills where $23.59,$40.65,$30.50 And $15.68His total tips was $17.67. What percent tip did he recieve for serving these meals. Round to nearest percent.

Answers

The percentage of the tip is 16%. This is computed by summing up all the bills, 23.59 + 40.65 + 30.50 + 15.68, which is equal to $110.42. Then $17.67 will be divided by $110.42, which is equal to 0.16000. After than to get the percentage we have to divide the 0.1600 by 100, which is equal to 16%.

A military aircraft can travel 740 miles per hour. The distance between Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida and Lakenheath Air Force Base in England is 2,567 miles. How long would it take the aircraft, traveling at top speed the entire route, to make the trip from Tyndall to Lakenhealth? Round to the nearest half hour.

Answers

Answer: 3.5 h

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Data:

a) s = 740 miles / h

b) d = 2,567 miles

c) t = ?

2. Equation:

  • speed = distance / time
  • s = d / t

3. Solution:

  • Solve the equation for t:

        s = d / t ⇒ t = d / s

  • Substitute values:

        t = 2,567 miles / (740 miles/h) ≈ 3.47 h ≈ 3.5 h
