195 students voted for eagle in the election

What is ratio?

Ratio means expressing the a figure as a fraction of total figure, in the case of falcon, the number of students that voted for falcon is seen as 5 whereas the total number of students that voted is 8 whereas for eagle, the total number of students that voted for eagle is 1 compared to 3 which represents the total number of votes cast.

In a bid to determine the number of students that voted eagle in the election, we would simply multiply total votes of 536 by 1/3

votes for eagle=1/3*586

votes for eagle=195 votes

We have rounded to the nearest whole number since number of votes cannot be fractional

Find an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence. <br> -3, -5, -7, -9, ...
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

a(n) = -3 - 2(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The most general formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence (such as this sequence is) is

a(n) = a(1) + c(n-1), where c is the common difference.

Here a(1) = -3 and c = -2.

Thus,

a(n) = -3 - 2(n-1).

Find the area of each figure. Round to the nearest hundredth where necessary.
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Triangle's area = 520 in², Square's area = 576 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Calculate the area of the triangle

-Find the length of the base using the Pythagorean theorem

          c² = a² + b²

-Solve for b²

          b² = c² - a²

-Substitution

          b² = 37² - 35²

-Simplification

          b² = 1369 - 1225

          b² = 144

          b = 12 in

-Find the base

          base = 2(12) = 24 in

-Find the area of the triangle

         Area = base x height / 2

-Substitution

         Area = 24 x 35 / 2

-Simplification

         Area = 420 in²

2.- Find the area of the square

Area = side x side

-Substitution

Area = 24 x 24

-Result

Area = 576 in²

PLEASE HELP! EASY MATH! GIVING BRAINLIEST!
grin007 [14]

Part 1) The surface that is shared by the two solids is the top of the cube that is the same that the square base of the pyramid

Part 2) The dimensions of this surface are 6 in x 6 in

Part 3) Molly needs to paint 228 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

Part 1) Which surface is shared by the two solids?

we know that

The surface that is shared by the two solids is the top of the cube that is the same that the square base of the pyramid

Part 2)  What are the dimensions of this surface?

The surface is a square with side length 6 inches

so

The dimensions of this surface are 6 in x 6 in

Part 3) what is the area molly needs to paint?

we know that

The area that Molly needs to paint is equal to the surface area of the cube plus the surface area of the pyramid minus two times the area of the surface that is shared by the two solids

so

therefore

Molly needs to paint 228 square inches

Charlie's weight is nine kilograms greater than his brother's. Together they weigh 99 kilograms. Let x represent the weight of t
spayn [35]
C=x+9, c+x=99, c=99-x

So we have two equations equal to c, c=x+9 and c=99-x, since c=c:

x+9=99-x

2x+9=99

2x=90

x=45, and since c=x+9, c=54

So Charlie weighs 54 kg and his brother weighs 45 kg.
