The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 inches. The ratio of the width to the length is 4:5. What is the width of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so is 36 inches.

The width is 4/(4+5) = 4/9 of the total of length and width, so is ...

  (4/9)(36 inches) = 16 inches

The width of the rectangle is 16 inches.

Describe how the value of the digit 2 changes in each place in the number 22.222.

Answers

The value of 2 is either multiplied by or divided by 10 depending on if you go left or right. Going left multiplies by 10 and right divides by 10. So the 2 farthest left represents 20, which means the 2 just to the right is 20 divided by 10, which is 2.

Answer:

ones, ten, hundreds, thousands, ten thousand, ect.

on the right side of the decimal represents a part of a number Ex. .222 is equal to 222/1000 of a number.

When Lucy left her house in the morning, her cell phone battery was partially charged. Lucy's phone lost battery life at a rate of 8% each hour and 3 hours after leaving her house, the battery had 16% remaining battery life. Write an equation for B , B, in terms of t , t, representing the charge remaining in Lucy's battery, as a percentage, t t hours after Lucy left her house.

Answers

Answer:

B = 40 - 8t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rate at which battery life discharges = 8% per hour ;

Battery life left after 3 hours = 16%

t = hours after Lucy left hiuse

Equation B will be ;

Amount of charge before leaving home - (Discharge rate * number hours)

Amount of charge before leaving home :

Charge left after 3 hours + discharge rate * 3

16% + 8*3

16% + 24% = 40%

Hence,

B = 40 - 8t

Answer:

probably B = 40 - 8t

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the <a'b'c' is <abc translated 1 unit to the right and 4 units up. Whenever it says to move to the right or the left it has to do with the x axis. When you move to the left its subtraction and when you move to the right you addition.

When ever is say to move up or down it has to do with the y-axis. when you move up its addition and when you move down its subtraction. Sooo since the question said to move it to the right and up theyre both going to be addition. Thats why in the translation theyre both addition sign.

A small box of cereal contains 10 cups of cereal. A medium box of the same cereal contains 30% more cereal than the small box. How many cups of cereal does the medium box contain?

-------Cups

Answers

Answer:

13 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If the small box has 10 cups, then:

(small)     10 cups   =   100%

(medium)    x cups     =   130%

Now, cross multiply:

10 (130) = x (100)

1300 = 100x

x = 13

Another way to solve this is by turning 30% into a decimal:

30/100 = 0.3

10 (0.3) = 3

Now you have 30% of the 10 cups, but you need 30% more than the small box, so:

10 + 3 = 13 cups

Sales tax is calculated as a percentage of the sales price. If sales tax is 6%, what is the sales tax on clothing that costs $180? (3 points)

a
$6.00
b
$9.80
c
$10.80
d
$18.60

Answers

Answer:

it is c $10.80

  

The sales tax on clothing that costs $180 is $10.80 with 6% sales tax. The correct answer is option c.

Given that:

The cost of cloth is $180.

Sales tax is 6%.

To calculate the sales tax on clothing that costs $180 at a rate of 6%, follow these steps:

Convert the sales tax rate to a decimal: 6% = 6/100 = 0.06

Sales tax can be calculated by using the formula given below:

Sales tax = Cost of clothing × Tax rate

Multiply the clothing cost by the sales tax rate to find the sales tax amount:

Sales tax = Cost of clothing × Tax rate

Sales tax = $180 × 0.06 = $10.80

Hence, the required value is $10.80. The correct answer is option c.

Water level in a well was 20m below ground level. During rainy season, rainwater collected in different water tanks was drained into the well and the water level rise 5 m above the previous level. The wall of the well is 1m 20cm high and a pulley affixed at a height of 80 cm. Raghu wants to draw water from the well. Find the minimum length of the rope that he can use.

Answers

Answer:

17 m

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the figure,  [tex]A_0-B_0[/tex] is the ground level, [tex]A_1-B_1[/tex] is the old level of water which was at 20 m below ground level, [tex]A_2-B_2[/tex] is the new level of water which is 5m above of old level. The height of wall of the well, 1.20 m, and the the pelly at 80 cm =0.80 m, has been shown too.

The minimum length of the rope is equal to the distance between the pully and the new water level, indicated by the length [tex]L_0[/tex] in the figure.

So, [tex]L_0= 20-5+1.20+0.80= 17m[/tex]

Hence, Raghu must use a rope having the minimum length 17 m to draw water from the well.

A fruit bowl contains 2 bananas, 5 oranges, and 4 apples in the simplest form, what is the ratio of apples to bananas in the fruit bowl?

Answers

Answer:

Ratio of apple to banana is 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find ratio of x type of one thing and y type of other thing we divide

x by y and ratio is written as

ratio = x:y

_________________________________

Number  of banana = 2

Number  of apples = 4

Ratio of apple to banana = Number  of apples :Number  of banana

Ratio of apple to banana = 4:2

since 4 is divisible by 2 , to get the ratio in simplest form

we divide both numerator and denominator by 2

Ratio of apple to banana = 4/2:2 /2 = 2:1

Thus,

Ratio of apple to banana is 2:1

the mean number of goals scored is 2.5.

How many home and away games have been played in total?

Answers

Answer:

2 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5 + 1.8 = 4

4 divided by 2 = 2

Total 32 games home and away games have been played.

What is the mean?

The average of a group of variables is referred to as the mean in mathematics and statistics. There are several methods for calculating the mean, including simple arithmetic means (adding the numbers together and dividing the result by the number of observations), geometric means, and harmonic means.

From the bar chart :

We can obtain the total number of goals scored :

Home goals (quarter 1 to quarter 4) :

= (9 + 6 + 8 + 7)

= 30

Away goals (quarter 1 to quarter 4) :

= (2 + 7 + 4 + 5)

= 18

Using the relation :

Mean goals scored = total goals scored / number of games played

Home games :

Mean goals = 2.5

Number of home games played = total goals scored / mean goals

= 30 / 2.5

= 22

Away games :

Mean goals = 1.8

Number of away games played = 18 / 1.8

= 10

Therefore, number of home and away games played in total = 22 + 10 = 32 games

Answers

Answer: Required ratio= 3:1.

larger bed has 3 square feet of area of every 1 square feet on smaller bed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Felipe has a flower bed with area [tex]\dfrac{25}4[/tex] square feet.

He expands the flower bed to have area [tex]\dfrac{75}4[/tex] square feet.

Now, area on larger flower bed  for every square foot of the smaller flower bed = (area of larger bed) ÷ (area of smaller bed)

[tex]= \dfrac{75}{4}\div\dfrac{25}{4}=\dfrac{75}{4}\times\dfrac{4}{25}=\dfrac{3}{1}[/tex]

So, larger bed has 3 square feet of area of every 1 square feet on smaller bed.

Required ratio= 3:1.
