The recycling center collected 48,000 ounces of
aluminum cans last week. How many tons of
aluminum did the recycling center collect?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1.5 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The recycling center collected 48,000 ounces of aluminum can

An ounce is the unit of weight and it can be expressed in tons as

[tex]1\ \text{ounce}=3.125\times 10^{-5}\ \text{tons}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore 48,000\ \text{ounces} \equiv\ 3.125\times 10^{-5}\times 48,000=1.5\ \text{tons}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

θ = [tex]\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex] (60° )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the identity

sin²x + cos²x = 1 ⇒ sin²x = 1 - cos²x

Given

cos²θ - sin²θ = 2 - 5cosθ

cos²θ - (1 - cos²θ) = 2 - 5cosθ

cos²θ - 1 + cos²θ = 2 - 5cosθ

2cos²θ - 1 = 2 - 5cosθ ( subtract 2 - 5cosθ from both sides )

2cos²θ + 5cosθ - 3 = 0 ← in standard form

(cosθ + 3)(2cosθ - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for θ

cosθ + 3 = 0

cosθ = - 3 ← not possible as - 1 ≤ cosθ  ≤ 1

2cosθ - 1 = 0

cosθ = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , so

θ = [tex]cos^{-1}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ) = [tex]\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex] ( or 60° )

If a car has tires with a diameter of 28 inches and is traveling at 55 mph, how fast are its tires spinning, in rpm^ prime s (revolutions per minute)? [There are 63,360 inches in 1 mile) Round your final answer to 2 decimal places .

Answers

Answer:

The tires are spinning at 660.49 revolutions per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the tires (v) is the same that the speed of the car, so to find the angular velocity of the tires we need to use the equation:

[tex] \omega = \frac{v}{r} [/tex]

Where:

r: is the radius of the tires = d/2 = 28 inches/2 = 14 inches

[tex]\omega = \frac{55 mph}{14 inches*\frac{1 mile}{63360 inches}} = 2.49 \cdot 10^{5} \frac{rad}{h}*\frac{1 h}{60 min}*\frac{1 rev}{2\pi rad} = 660.49 rpm[/tex]              

Therefore, the tires are spinning at 660.49 revolutions per minute.

License plates in the tiny country of Venn follow a unique pattern. The first character is one of 41 Egyptian hieroglyphs, the second is one of 39 emojis, and the third character is one of 10 polygons. How many 3 character license plates are available to the people of Venn?

Answers

Answer:

12710 license plates

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

First character = one of 41 different hieroglyphs

Second character = one of 31 emojis

Third character = one of 10 polygons

A license plate consists of 3 characters

Number of 3-character license plates available :

Number of hieroglyphs * Number of emojis * number of polygons

41 * 31 * 10 = 12710 license plates.

The total surface area of this cone is 21π square feet.

What is the total surface area of the cone?

The total surface area of the cone is given by the following formula;

[tex]\rm Surface \ area=\pi r(r+l)[/tex]

Where h denotes the height of the cone and r is the radius and l is the slant height.

The radius of the cone = 3

The height of the cone = 4

Substitute all the values in the formula

[tex]\rm Surface \ area=\pi r(r+l)\\\\\rm Surface \ area=\pi 3(4+3)\\\\\rm Surface \ area=3\pi \times 7\\\\\rm Surface \ area=21\pi[/tex]

The ratio of A ABC to ADEF is 6/5

HELP PLZZZZ!!!!

Answers

Answer:

x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the ratio of ∆ABC to ∆DEF is 6/5, it means that:

AB/DE = BC/EF = AC/DF = 6/5

AB = x

DE = 35

Therefore,

AB/DE = 6/5

Plug in the values

x/35 = 6/5

Cross multiply

x*5 = 6*35

5x = 210

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 210/5

An item is regularly priced at $24. Christine bought it on sale for20% off the regular price.How much did he pay for it

Answers

Answer:

$19.2

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

$19.20

Step-by-step explanation:

First find how much 20% of 24 is.

What is 20% of 24?

Y is 20% of 24

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 20% * 24

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 20%/100 = 0.2

Y = 0.2 * 24

Y = 4.8

Then subtract that from $24

Which gives you $19.2

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

The expression is 9(n + 8) - 6, the value is 111 ⇒ answer A plz mark me brainlest

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- We have a statement:

" six less than nine times the sum of a number and eight"

- When we solve we will start by the last part

- The last part is the sum of a number and 8

- Assume that the number is n

∵ The sum is the answer of adding

∴ The sum of a number and eight is ⇒ n + 8

- Nine times the sum

∵ The sum is n + 8

∵ Nine times means multiply the sum by 9

∴ Nine times the sum is ⇒ 9(n + 8)

- Six less than nine times the sum

∵ Nine times the sum is 9(n + 8)

∵ Six less than means subtract 6 from nine times the sum

∴ Six less than nine times the sum is ⇒ 9(n + 9) - 6

* The expression is 9(n + 8) - 6

- Lets evaluate the expression when n = 5

∵ 9(n + 8) - 6

∵ n = 5

∴ The value = 9(5 + 8) - 6

∴ The value = 9(13) - 6

∴ The value = 117 - 6

∴ The value = 111

* When n = 5 the value of the expression is 111

Carlos has 2.6 meters of wire. He has 3 projects for which he needs 0.9 meters each. Does carlos have enough wires?

Answers

Answer: Carlos does not have enough wires by 0.1 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if Carlos has enough wires, you need to find out the total amount of wires needed and then compare this to the amount of wires that Carlos has already.

= 0.9 + 0.9 + 0.9

= 2.7 meters

Carlos has 2.6 meters of wire but needs 2.7 meters.  

Carlos therefore, does not have enough wires.

In a lab experiment, 490 bacteria are placed in a petri dish. The conditions are such
that the number of bacteria is able to double every 29 hours. How many bacteria
would there be after 8 hours, to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer:

593

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]490(2)^8^/^2^9 = 593.25[/tex]

593.25 ≈ 593

The number of bacteria after 8 hours is 593.

What is a word problem?

A word problem is a verbal description of a problem situation. It consists of few sentences describing a 'real-life' scenario where a problem needs to be solved by way of a mathematical calculation.

For the given situation,

Number of bacteria placed in petri dish = 490

Time required for bacteria to double = 29 hours

Number of bacteria after 8 hours is

⇒ [tex]490(2)^{\frac{8}{29} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]490(2)^{0.2758}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]490(1.2107)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]593.25149[/tex]

⇒ [tex]593[/tex]

Hence  we can conclude that the number of bacteria after 8 hours is 593.
