A study of a population of 1,500 moths revealed that 15 out of every 75 moths in the population have gray stripes on their wings. Based on the results of this study, how many moths in the population have gray stripes on their wings?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 300 moths

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 15 out of every 75 moths in the population have gray stripes on their wings, this means the fraction of moths that have gray stripes on their wings is 15/75 = 1/5.

Therefore, out of 1500 moths, the number of moths in the population that have gray stripes on their wings would be calculated as:

= 1/5 × 1500

= 300 moths

Elsa and two of her closest friends went out to dinner to celebrate Elsaś birthday. The bill for dinner totaled $74.80. If they decided to leave a 20% tip, what was the amount paid by each person in Elsaś party before taxes?

Answers

Answer:

$29.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The bill for dinner totaled $74.80

Then the tip is 20%

Required

The amount paid by each person after the tip was added to the cost of the dinner

Step two:'

the amount of the tip is

=20/100*74.80

= 0.2*74.80

=$14.96

The total is 14.96+74.80

=$89.76

The number of persons including the celebrant is = 3

so each person will pay

=89.76/3

=$29.92

In the diagram below of triangle ABC, D is a midpoint of AB and E is a midpoint
of BC. If m of ZCAD?

Answers

Answer:

The measure of ∠CAD is 69°

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔABC

∵ D is the mid-point of AB

∵ E is the mid-point of BC

DE is parallel to AC

→ From parallelism

∵ DE // AC

m∠EDB = m∠CAD → corresponding angles

∵ m∠EDB = 83 - 7x

∵ m∠CAD = 7x + 55

→ Equate them

7x + 55 = 83 - 7x

→ Add 7x to both sides

∵ 7x + 7x + 55 = 83 - 7x + 7x

∴ 14x + 55 = 83

→ Subtract 55 from both sides

∵ 14x + 55 - 55 = 83 - 55

∴ 14x = 28

→ Divide both sides by 14

x = 2

→ To find m∠CAD, substitute x by 2 in its measure

∵ m∠CAD = 7(2) + 55

∴ m∠CAD = 14 + 55

∴ m∠CAD = 69°

The measure of ∠CAD is 69°

Nancy's morning routine involves getting dressed, eating breakfast, making her bed, and driving to work. Nancy spends ⅓ of the total time in the morning getting dressed, 10 minutes eating breakfast, 5 minutes making her bed, and the remaining time driving to work. If Nancy spends 35 ½ minutes getting dressed, eating breakfast, and making her bed, how long is her drive to work?

Answers

Answer: 26 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the total time spent in the morning which includes getting dressed, eating breakfast, making her bed, and driving to work is x.

Time getting dressed = ¹/₃x

Eating breakfast = 10 mins

Making bed = 5 mins

¹/₃x + 10 + 5 = 35 ½

¹/₃x + 15 = 35 ½

¹/₃x = 35 ½ - 15

¹/₃x = 20 ½

x = 20 ½ / ¹/₃

= 61.5 minutes

Total morning routine is is 61.5 mins

Time taken to drive to work is;

= 61.5 - 35 ½

= 26 minutes

Lian's work is shown below. Steps Lian's Work Step 1 s + 40 = 68 Step 2 s + 40 minus 40 = 68 minus 40 Step 3 s = 28 In which step, if any, did Lian first make a mistake in her work? step 1 step 2 step 3 no mistake

Answers

Answer:

No mistake

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation solved by Lian expressed as;

s  + 40 = 68

Lian is to find the value of s from the equation, to do that you will follow the steps below;

Step 1: Substract 40 from both sides of the equation;

s  + 40 - 40 = 68 - 40

Step 2: Solve for s;

s  + 40 - 40 = 68 - 40

s + 0 = 68 - 40

s = 28

Based on the calculation, we can say that Lian made no mistake when solving

A town is storing salt for the winter in a cylindrical building. The building has a radius of 5 ft and is 30 ft tall. The building contains 1,500 ft3 of salt. What is the approximate height that the salt reaches in the building?
The answer are:
A. 0.5 ft
B. 5 ft
C. 19 ft
D. 22 ft

Answers

Answer:

To start off, we know the problem involves something with volume as it is 3D and has a cubic in it.

We know r = 5, h = 30, and v = 1500

The volume for a cylinder in 3d is : V=[tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]h

We're solving for the height when the cylinder has a volume of 1500, therefor, we will solve for height.

Using our volume equation we plug in all values except h because we're solving for it.

1500=[tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

1500=[tex]\pi 5^{2} h[/tex]

1500=25[tex]\pi[/tex](h)

1500/25[tex]\pi[/tex] = h

60/[tex]\pi[/tex] = h

60/[tex]\pi[/tex] = 19.0985

H is 19ft. (C)

A car dealer is calculating the list price for a used car. The dealer takes the initial price of the car and adds $259 dollars for cleaning and shipping the car to the dealer. The dealer then increases that price by 25% for the dealer’s profit. That price is then increased again by 10% for the salesperson’s commission. If a used car is initially priced $10,000, what will be the list price for this car?

Answers

Add the 259 to the initial price:

10,000 + 259 = 10,259

Increase that price by 25%, so multiply by 1.25:

10259 x 1.25 = 12,823.75

The price is then increased by another 10%, multiply by 1.10:

12,823.75 x 1.10 = 14,106.13

List price = $14,106.13

if f(x)=mx+b what are the values of m and b​

Answers

The m variable is the slope of the line and controls its 'steepness'. A positive value has the slope going up to the right. A negative slope goes down to the right. The b variable is the y intercept - the point where the line crosses the y axis.

example 1                                                    

y = mx + b

m = slope b = y-intercept

y = 3x - 1

m = 3 and b = -1

example 2

y = b + mx

b = y-intercept m = slope

y = 5 - 1/2x

m =- 1/2 and b = 5

Find the volume of a cylinder with a radius of 4 in and a height that is 3 times the radius

Answers

Answer:

Volume of a cylinder: V = π * r² * h ,

Base surface area of a cylinder: A_b = 2 * π * r² ,

Lateral surface area of a cylinder: A_l = 2 * π * r * h ,

Total surface area of a cylinder: A = A_b + A_l ,

Step-by-step explanation:

So, when the radius is tripled, the volume will be 3 squared = 9 times than the previous one.
