The aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish. 60 percent of the fish are yellow. How many green fish are in the aquarium?
kompoz [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  6

Step-by-step explanation:

If 60% are yellow, the other 40% are green. Then the difference between yellow and green is 60% -40% = 20% of the total number of fish. That difference also happens to be half of the number of green fish:

  20% = (1/2)(40%)

So, the number of green fish is 2×3 = 6.

_____

If you wanted to, you could write a couple of equations:

  y - g = 3

  y = 0.60(y +g)

Using the first equation to write an expression for y, we get ...

  y = g +3

Using this in the second equation, we have ...

  g +3 = 0.6(g +3 +g)

  g +3 = 1.2g +1.8 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  1.2 = 0.2g . . . . . . . .  subtract g+1.8

  1.2/0.2 = g = 6 . . . . . divide by 0.2

There are 6 green fish in the aquarium.

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is 1980°. Find n.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

n = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of an n-sided polygon is

(n - 2)180

Set (n - 2)180 equal to 1980 and solve for n.

(n - 2)180 = 1980

Divide both sides by 180.

n - 2 = 11

Add 2 to both sides.

n = 13

A right cylinder has a radius of 6 m and a surface area of 84 m². Find the surface area of a similar cylinder with a radius of 2
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The surface area of the second cylinder is equal to 9.33\ m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar then

the ratio of their surfaces areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z-------> the scale factor

x------> the surface area of the smaller cylinder (second cylinder)

y-------> the surface area of the original cylinder (first cylinder)

so

z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}

Step 1

Find the scale factor

z=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}

Step 2

Find the surface area of the second cylinder

we have

z=\frac{1}{3}

y=84\ m^{2}

substitute and solve for x

(\frac{1}{3})^{2}=\frac{x}{84}

x=\frac{1}{9}*84=9.33\ m^{2}
