Using proportions, it is found that the average waste produced by each plant on a monthly basis is of 0.8 tons per month.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, there is a period of 60 x 12 = 720 months, with 104 plants, and 60,000 tons of waste were produced, hence the average is given by:

A = 60000/(720 x 104) = 0.8 tons per month.

2. cos 0°<br> a) sin 1° b)<br> c) sin 90° d) tan 90°<br> B)cos 1°
motikmotik

Answer:

sin 90

Step-by-step explanation:

cos (0)

Using the unit circle, we know that cos 0=1

sin 1 and cos 1  are not equal to 1

sin 90 =1

tan 90 = sin 90/ cos 90 = 1/0 =undefined

Find the value of w and then x. Round lengths to the nearest tenth and angle measures to the nearest degree.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer

w=7.6

x=43.7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for w you can use Sin(x)=\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}  which would basically be Sin(50)=\frac{w}{10} then solve. Multiply the ten on both sides so you have 10*Sin(50)=w and your final answer is 7.6

To solve for x you can also use Sin(x)=\frac{7.6}{11} then just use Inverse of Sin^-1

The answer is x=43.7

5. y = 2x + 6<br> 2x - y=2
Crank

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 6

2x - y = 2

To solve this system of equations, let's first add the equations together:

(y) + (2x - y) = (2x + 6) + (2)

2x = 2x + 8

2x - 2x = 8

0 = 8

There are no values of x that will make this equation true, so the lines never intersect, and therefore there are no solutions to this system of equations.

What is the volume of the box pictured below?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

The volume of the box is 3/4 cubic meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that volume = length * width * height. We have length, width, and height already, so all we have to do is multiply.

5/6 * 1 1/8 * 4/5. First we convert 1 1/8 from a mixed fraction, to give us 9/8, as 8/8 = 1.

5/6 * 9/8 * 4/5. 5 * 9 = 45, and 6 * 8 = 48. 45/48 reduces to 15/16.

15/16 * 4/5. 15 * 4 = 60, and 16 * 5 = 80. 60/80 reduces to 6/8, which reduces to 3/4.
