this gives
total area of the field = 4655 sqyrd + 1884.79 sqyrd = 6539.79 sqyrd
cost of fertilising 1 sqyrd = $ 0.08
so cost of fertilising 6539.79 sqyrd = 6539.79 * $ 0.08 = $ 523.18

HELP. How do i convert $1.34 into a percent %

Lelechka [254]

Ok. So, say you have 1 whole. If you take half of that it would be 50% or 0.50 of the whole. So with 1.34 you can turn it into 1 and 0.34. You have one whole, so that is 100 percent. You than add the 34 hundredths which is 34 percent. So you have 134%. Do you understand all that?

In finance the notion of expected value is used to analyze investments for which the investor has an estimate of the chances ass

blagie [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected return is given as

Expected Return = SUM (Return i x Probability i). i=1,2,3.....

First investment

Probability of 0.7, it returns 60cents per dollars

Second investment

Probably of 0.3, it loses 20cents per dollar.

Expected return=(0.7×60)-(0.3×20)

Excepted return= 42-6

Excepted return=36cents

To dollars, 1cents is 0.01dollars

Then, 36cents = 0.36dollars

Expected return=$0.36

ok so if you have 3 and 1/4 pizza and want to subtract 3/4 out of it,and get 3x more slices then you had from a friend after sub

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

You have 2 and 1/2 pizzas and your friend has 5/6 of a pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 3 1/4 pizzas. If you get rid of 3/4 of a pizza, you will end up with 2 2/4 pizzas.

To make it easier, you can just change the values into improper fractions: 3 1/4 = 13/4

13/4 - 3/4 = 10/4

10/4 = 2 2/4 pizzas

(2 2/4 = 2 1/2)

Anyways! You now have 2 and a half pizzas. You have 3 times the amount of pizza that your friend has. In other words, your friend has 1/3 the amount of pizza that you have. You can solve for this in two ways, whichever way you solve it is up to you.

You can solve this problem by dividing the amount of food you have by 3: $\frac{2\frac{1}{2} }{3}$ which equals 0.8333... (the 3 is repeating). But you can just keep your final answer in fraction form if you want to: $\frac{2.5}{3} = \frac{5}{6}$
You can solve this problem by multiplying 1/3 to the amount of food you have: $\frac{1}{3} * 2 \frac{2}{4}\\=\frac{10}{12}\\ =\frac{5}{6}$

You have 2 and 1/2 pizzas and your friend has 5/6 of a pizza.

Answer:

Angle ACD = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

The full, correct question is presented the attached image to this solution.

Given

Point O is the centre if the circle

Points A, B, C and D are points on the circle

Angle AOB = 140°

Angle OAC = 14°

Angle AOB = 2 × (Angle ACB) [angle subtended at the centre of the circle is twice the angle subtended at the circumference of the circle)

140° = 2 × (Angle ACB)

Angle ACB = (140°/2) = 70°

(Angle AOB) + (Angle OAB) + (Angle ABO) = 180° [sun of angles in a triangle is 180°]

But Angle OAB = Angle ABO = a [base angles of an iscosceles triangle are equal since OA and OB are both radii for the circle O)

(Angle AOB) + (Angle OAB) + (Angle ABO) = 180°

140° + a + a = 180°

2a = 40°

a = (40/2) = 20°

Angle OAB = Angle ABO = 20°

Angle CAB = (Angle OAC) + (Angle OAB) = 14° + 20° = 34°

Triangle ADC is an iscosceles triangle, hence,

Angle DAC = Angle ACD = x [base angles of an iscosceles triangle are equal]

But

(Angle DCB) + (Angle DAB) = 180° [Opposite angles of a cyclic quadilateral (a quadilateral inscribed in a circle) sum up to give 180°]

Angle DCB = (Angle DCA) + (Angle ACB) = (x + 70°)

Angle DAB = (Angle DAC) + (Angle CAB) = (x + 34°)

(Angle DCB) + (Angle DAB) = 180°

(x + 70°) + (x + 34°) = 180°

2x + 104° = 180°

2x = 180° - 104° = 76°

x = (76°/2) = 38°

Angle DAC = Angle ACD = 38°

Angle ACD = 38°

Hope this Helps!!!
