Maria and Sheila total marks are illustrations of proportions

The total marks obtained by both is 156

<h3>How to determine their total marks?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Sheila = 96 marks

2/5 of Maria's marks = 1/4 of Sheila's marks

The second highlight above means that:

2/5 * Maria = 1/4 * 96

Multiply both sides by 5/2

Maria = 1/4 * 96 * 5/2

Evaluate the product

Maria = 60

Their total mark is then calculated as:

Total = Sheila + Mark

This gives

Total = 96 + 60

Evaluate the sum

Total = 156

Hence, the total marks obtained by both is 156

What is the vertex of the graph of g(x)=|x-9|+3
mart [117]

Look at h(x) = |x-9|. The vertex of this absolute value function graph is at (9,0).


Sometimes it helps to work on a simpler problem first, which is why I've introduced h(x) = |x-9|.


The vertex of g(x)=|x-9|+3 is 0+3, or 3; we translate the entire graph of g(x)=|x-9| upward by 3 units. Thus, the vertex of g(x) is (9,3).

Bumek [7]

Answer:

3636 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of duration of baby sloth sleep is shown below:-

A three-toes sloth usually sleeps is

= 101 hours per week.

Number of week is

= 36

Since we need to compute the duration of baby sloth's sleep so we need to multiply the number of weeks with number of hours per week

Therefore,

The duration of baby sloth's sleep in 36 weeks

= 36 x 101

= 3636 hours

Drew invests $70.00. It earns 50% interest annually.
VladimirAG [237]

Step-by-step explanation:

50% interest annually.

that means he gets 50% interest of the invested capital every year.

and that means he gets 50% of $70 in one year.

70 = 100%

1% = 100%/100 = 70/100 = $0.70

50% = 1%×50 = 0.7 × 50 = $35

he will earn $35 interest in one year.

as you noticed: 50% simply means 1/2 (as 100% stands for the whole).
