78% of a number, P, is 23.4 more than 117% of another number, Q. It is further given
that is 40% of P. Find P and Q.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"78% of P" looks like this in an algebraic expression: .78P

"117% of Q" looks like this: 1.17Q

"...is 23.4 more than [above]" looks like this: [above] + 23.4

Putting that all together in one equation, knowing that the word "is" means "equals":

.78P = 1.17Q + 23.4

From there, we will now use the fact that Q is 40% of P, which looks like this:

Q = .4P

Now, using that substitution:

.78P = 1.17(.4P) + 23.4 and

.78P = .468P + 23.4 and

.312P = 23.4 so

P = 75

Going back up to what Q is equal to, we will sub in the value of P and solve for Q:

Q = .4P and P = 75, therefore,

Q = .4(75) so

Q = 30

a solid consists of cylinder surmounted by a right circular cone. The height of the cone is 2h. If the volume of the solid is 3 times the volume of the cone then what is the height of the cylinder. Plsss help fast

Answers

Answer:

height of cylinder = 4/3 h

Step-by-step explanation:

The solid has a cylinder surmounted with a cone .Therefore, the volume of the solid is the sum of the cone and the cylinder.

volume of the solid = volume of cylinder + volume of cone

volume of the solid = πr²h + 1/3πr²h

let

height of the cylinder = H

recall

the height of the cone = 2h

volume of the solid = πr²h + 1/3πr²h

3(1/3πr²2h) = πr²H + 1/3πr²2h

2πr²h = πr²H + 2/3 πr²h

πr²(2h) = πr²(H + 2/3 h)

divide both sides by πr²

2h = H + 2/3 h

2h - 2/3h = H

H = 6h - 2h/3

H = 4/3 h

height of cylinder = 4/3 h

The first day, they drove 300 300 miles in 6 6 hours. The second day, they drove 250 250 miles in 5 5 hours. The third day, they arrived at the park after driving for 3 3 hours. How many miles did they drive on the third day?

Answers

Answer:

150 miles

distance travelled on the third day = 150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: it was given that they drove the same speed throughout the trip. That means their speed is constant for all days;

For the first day

distance = 300 miles

time = 6 hours

Speed = distance/time

Speed = 300/6 = 50 mph

on the third day;

time = 3 hours

Speed = speed on first day = 50 mph

distance = speed × time

distance = 50 mph × 3 hours

distance = 150 miles

distance travelled on the third day = 150 miles

A ball was dropped from a height of 60m. Each time it hit the ground, it bounced up 1/2 (half) of the height that it dropped. How far had the ball travelled when it hit the ground for the fifth time?

Answers

Answer:

The ball traveled 116.25 m when it hit the ground for the fifth term

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric progression exercise and what we are asked to look for is the sum of a GP.

The ball was dropped from a height of 60 m. This means that the initial height of the ball is 60 m.

First value, a = 60

Each time it hit the ground, it bounced up 1/2 (half) of the height that it dropped.

This is the common ratio, r = 1/2 = 0.5

The number of terms it hits the ground is the number of terms in the GP.

number of terms, n = 5

The distance traveled by the ball when it hit the ground for the fifth term will be modeled by the equation:

[tex]S_n = \frac{a(1 - r^n) }{1 - r} \\S_5 = \frac{60(1 - 0.5^5) }{1 - 0.5}\\S_5 = \frac{58.125}{0.5} \\S_5 = 116.25 m[/tex]


A college's lacrosse team will play 22 games next spring. Each game can result in one of 2 outcomes: a win or a loss. Find the total
possible number of outcomes for the season record.

Answers

Answer: 44 possible outcomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the number of games by the number of outcomes to find how many possibilities.

22 games * 2 outcomes = 44 possibilities

Interpreting the situation, it is found that there are 23 possible outcomes for the season record.

For each game, there are two possible outcomes.

Hence, if the team plays 1 game, there are two possible outcomes, 0 wins or 1 win.If the team plays 2 games, there are three possible outcomes, 0 wins, 1 win or 2 wins.The same is valid for 3 games, the team can win 0, 1, 2 or 3 games.Hence, for n games, there are n+1 outcomes.

In this problem, there are 22 games, hence 23 possible outcomes.

What is the following product?

Answers

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

(5√2 - 4√3)(5√2 - 4√3)

We can rewrite this equation into a more simpler form.

(5√2 - 4√3)²

Now, we multiply. When multiplying, its important we multiply each term instead of combining them together.

When you multiply a radical by itself, then the base number will be by itself as the product.

So......

(5)² = 25

(4)² = 16

(√2)² = 2

(√3)² = 3

So, now the equation looks like this..

(25 * 2) + (16 * 3)

Multiply the terms.

50 + 48

Add the numbers.

50 + 48 = 98

So, your answer will be answer choice D. The radical in choice D represents the radicals that are in the problem multiplied together.

Answers

Answer:

The triangle's area is 12 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by drawing the requested points A = (-4, -3) and B = (0, -3), which we notice are located horizontally on the line of y = -3 and separated 4 units from each other (see red dots in the attached image).

Then we look for a point over the line y = 3 that is equidistant from points A and B (so we place it at the point (-2, 3)) and name it "C".

Now, the triangle ABC defined by the three points has base = 4 units, and height = 6 units (from the line y = -3 to the line y = 3).

Then recall that the area of a triangle is defined by the product of the triangle's base times its height, divided by two:

[tex]Area=\frac{base\,*\,height}{2} \\Area=\frac{4\,*\,6}{2} \\Area = 12[/tex]

So the triangle's area is 12 square units.

Jenny wants to know if she has got enough money to buy the tiles.The tiles are sold in packs, which cover 2m2 Jenny has a discount card which gives her 25% off any marked price at the DIY shop. The tiles are marked at £9.60 Jenny has £100 to spend on the tiles. How much extra does Jenny need to buy the tiles? Give your answer in pence.

Answer:

Extra amount needed by Jenny to buy the tiles = £8

Step-by-step explanation:

Floor area = 30.0 m^2

Area covered by a pack of tiles = 2.0 m^2

Number of packs needed = 30/2

Number of packs needed = 15

Price of a pack of tiles = £9.60

Discount = 25%

Jenny will pay 75% of the marked price

Amount Jenny will pay for a pack of tiles = 75% of 9.60 = 0.75*9.60

Amount Jenny will pay for a pack of tiles = £7.20

Amount Jenny will pay for 15 packs of tiles = 7.20 x 15

Amount Jenny will pay for 15 packs of tiles = £108

The amount of money Jenny currently has = £100

Extra amount needed by Jenny to buy the tiles = £108 - £100

Extra amount needed by Jenny to buy the tiles = £8

Answers

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross section: In three-dimensional space, the non-empty intersection of a solid body and a plane is known as cross section.

A cylinder has two circular plane surface called edges (top and bottom) and curved surface.

If the plane intersects the cylinder vertically along an edge of the cylinder, then the plane is perpendicular to both edges and we get two pairs of opposite sides which are equal.

It means, the cross section of plane and cylinder is a rectangle.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
