The table shows the results of a survey on people’s favorite fruit. What percent of the people chose strawberry as their favorit

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

24.2%

Explanation:

The percentage of people choosing strawberry can be calculated as follows:

$Percentage = \frac{PeopleChoosingStrawberry}{TotalNumberOfSurveyedPeople} * 100$

We have:

Number of people choosing strawberry = 15 people

Total number of surveyed people = 17 + 10 + 17 + 3 + 15 = 62 people

Substitute in the above rule to get the percentage as follows:

$Percentage = \frac{15}{62}*100 = 24.19 = 24.2$ %

Hope this helps :)

The length of a rectangle is 2 in longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 44 in , find its area.

valkas [14]

P = 2(L + W)
P = 44
L = W + 2

44 = 2(W + 2 + W)
44 = 2(2W + 2)
44 = 4W + 4
44 - 4 = 4W
40 = 4W
40/4 = W
10 = W

L = W + 2
L = 10 + 2
L = 12

A = L * W
L = 12
W = 10

A = 12 * 10
A = 120 square inches <===

If < A and < B are vertical angles, and < A = 5x - 1 degrees, and < B = 4x + 4 degrees, find x.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

vertical angles are congruent , so

∠ A = ∠ B , that is

5x - 1 = 4x + 4 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

x - 1 = 4 ( add 1 to both sides )

x = 5
