Twelve people in a group are left-handed.

Twenty per cent of the group are left-handed.

How many people are in the group?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

60 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = total people in the group

Number of Left-handed people = 12

Percentage of left-handed people = 20%

20% of x = 12

20/100 * x = 12

0.2 * x = 12

0.2x = 12

x = 12/0.2

x = 60 people

x = total people in the group = 60

A 10-foot ladder is placed against a building so that the ladder makes a 78°
angle with the ground. To the nearest tenth of a foot, at what height does the
ladder touch the building?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the ladder using trigonometric ratio is 9.8 feet.

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is mainly concerned with specific functions of angles and their application to calculations. Trigonometry deals with the study of the relationship between the sides of a triangle (right-angled triangle) and its angles.

For the given situation,

The slanting height of the ladder = 10 foot

The ladder makes an angle = 78°

Let height of the ladder be 'h'.

The below diagram shows the ladder position.

The height of the ladder can be found by using trigonometric ratio,

[tex]sin \theta=\frac{perpendicular}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]sin78=\frac{h}{10}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]0.9781=\frac{h}{10}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]h=9.781[/tex] ≈ [tex]9.8[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the height of the ladder using trigonometric ratio is 9.8 feet.

Isaac finished eight of the ten homework problems. Phil has finished of the homework. How many more problems did Isaac finish?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Issac has finished 8/10 problems in the homework, and Phil has completed all of it, it can be concluded that Phil completed 10/10. 10/10 would equal a whole, or in this case, the entire homework. If Issac completed 8 problems, and Phil completed 10, subtract both values to find that Issac completed -2 more problems than Phil.

At an ice cream shop, Roy orders 3 scoops of ice cream and 1 topping for $3.95. Pete orders 2 scoops and 2 toppings for $3.10. What is the cost per scoop and per topping?a. $0.35 per scoop and $1.20 per topping/ b. $1.20 per scoop and $0.35 per topping/ c. $3.10 per scoop and $0.85 per topping/ d. $2.25 per scoop and $0.85 per topping

Answers

The price for 1 scoop of ice cream and the price for 1 topping is $1.20 and $0.35 respectively.  

Suppose the price for 1 scoop of ice cream = x

The price for 1 topping = y

What is a linear equation?

An equation of the form ax+by+c=0 is called a linear equation where a, b and c are real numbers.

According to the question

3x+y=3.95.......(1)

2x+2y=3.10.......(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 on both sides

6x+2y=7.90.....(3)

Subtracting the equation (2) from equation(3)

4x=4.80

x=1.20

So, y = 0.35

So, the price for 1 scoop of ice cream =$1.20

The price for 1 topping = $0.35

Hence, the price for 1 scoop of ice cream and price for 1 topping is $1.20 and $0.35 respectively.

3 is added to 5 times a certain number and the result is multiplied by 5 the final answer is not more than 2 less than the number

Answers

Answer:

The number is less than - 0.708

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - 3 is added to 5 times a certain number and the result is multiplied by 5 the final answer is not more than 2 less than the number

To find - What is the number ?

Proof -

Let a number be x

Given that,

3 is added to 5 times a certain number

So,

The expression becomes 3 + 5x

Now,

Given that, the result is multiplied by 5

So,

The expression becomes (3 + 5x)× 5

Now,

Given that,

The final answer is not more that 2 less than the number.

So,

The equation becomes

(3 + 5x)× 5 ≤  x - 2

⇒15 + 25x ≤ x - 2

⇒15 + 2 + 25x - x  ≤  0

⇒17 + 24x  ≤  0

⇒24x  ≤  -17

⇒x ≤ - [tex]\frac{17}{24}[/tex]

⇒ x ≤ -0.708

∴ we get

The number is less than - 0.708

If I need to pour a cement sidewalk five feet wide and 250 feet long, the cost of the cement is 30 afoot, what will I have to pay.

Answers

Answer:

$37500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Width of side walk= 5ft

Lenght= 250ft

Cost per square foot= $30

Hence the area of the side walk= 5*250

                                                     = 1250ft^2

Hence the cost = 30*1250

Sally can paint a room in 9 hours while it takes Steve 5 hours to paint the same room. How long would it take them to paint the room if they worked​ together?

Answers

Answer: About 3 hours and 5 minutes to paint the room together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally can paint 1/5 of the room in an hour and Steve can paint 1/8 of the room in an hour.

Room/Hour

1/5 ± 1/8 =8/40  

8/40+5/40=13/40

How long to paint the room?

13/40 x 1= 40/13

40÷13=3.0777

So the answer will be Sally and Steve can paint the room in about 3 hours and 5 minutes

In a right triangle, the hypotenuse has endpoints P(–3, 2) and Q(1, –3). If R represents the third vertex in the triangle and R is located in the third quadrant, what is the length of PR?

Answers

Answer:

PR = 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Right triangle

Hypotenuse = P(–3, 2), Q(1, –3)

R = located in the third quadrant.

To calculate the length of PR,

(i) First make a sketch of the points P and Q. The diagram is attached to this response.

(ii) As shown in the diagram, the point R is located in the third quadrant and its distance from P is from point -3 to 2 on the y-axis.

There are 5 points between -3 and 2. Therefore, the length PR = 5 units

Alice is searching online for tickets to a knicks game. Two weeks ago, the cost was $30. Now the cost is $39. What is the percent increase

Answers

Given:

Two weeks ago, the cost of tickets = $30

Now, the cost of tickets = $39

To find:

The percent increase.

Solution:

We have,

Initial value = $30

New value = $39

Formula for percentage increase is:

[tex]\%\text{increase}=\dfrac{\text{New value - Initial value}}{\text{Initial value}}\times 100[/tex]

Using this formula, we get

[tex]\%\text{increase}=\dfrac{39-30}{30}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\%\text{increase}=\dfrac{9}{3}\times 10[/tex]

[tex]\%\text{increase}=3\times 10[/tex]

[tex]\%\text{increase}=30[/tex]

Therefore, the percent increase in the cost of tickets is 30%.

Composite made up of a rectangular prism surmounted by a triangular prism. The rectangular prism has dimensions of 16 meters wide by 20 meters long by 12 meters high. The triangular prism has dimensions of 16 meters wide by 20 meters long with a triangular altitude of 8 meters high.

Answers

SEE THE IMAGE BELOW (I REALLY HOPE THIS IS CORRECT!!!)

Answer:

1764 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to attached picture.

All given dimensions are given on the picture (not to scale).

Since altitude of the triangle and slant height is given, we can find the base of the triangle using Pythagorean:

[tex]b/2 = \sqrt{11.3^2-8^2} = \sqrt{64} = 8m, \\b = 16 m[/tex]

It has 9 faces and the total surface area is:

S = 16*20 + 2(20*12) + 2(20*11.3) + 2(16*12) + 2(1/2*8*16)  = 1764 m²

Identify an equation in slope-intercept form for the line perpendicular to y = –1/2x + 11 that passes through (4, –8).

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular lines = have negative-reciprocal slope

slope: -1/2 => negative-reciprocal => 2                                               ↓ slope

substitute (4, -8) and the slope 2 into the slope-intercept form(y = mx + b) to find b:

=> -8 = 2(4) + b => b = -16

plug in the slope 2 and b = -16 to the slope-intercept form:
