Answer:

150 minutes (2.5 hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

We must consider that the total time that the radio program lasted  represents the 100%.

Of that 100% we are told that 20% is dedicated to commercials. So the 30 minutes of commercials correspond to 20% of the air time, which can be represented in the following table:

Percentage of time             time

        20%                       ⇒     30min

and we are looking for how long the show was on the air (the 100%).

So updating the table( I will call x the total time on the air):

Percentage of time             time

        20%                       ⇒     30min

        100%                       ⇒     x

This reationship between three values can be solve by the<u> rule of three</u>: multiply the cross quantities on the table (100 by 30) and divide by the remaining amount (20):

x = 100*30 / 20

x= 3000 / 20

x = 150 minutes

The radio show was 150 minutes (2.5 hours) long.

In Exercises 27 and 28, find the domain of the function
Natali5045456 [20]

                                             Question 27

The graph on question 27 indicates that there are three points with the locations such as:

  • (2, 6)
  • (4, 12)
  • (6, 18)

In other words, there are three points that lie on the graph with the x-values such as:

{(2, 6), (4, 12), (6, 18)}

We know that the domain includes the set of x-values.

Hence, the domain of the function is:

  • Domain: {2, 4, 6}

Since the points are not connected between them. In other words, there is not a continuous line.

Thus, the function represented on the graph has a discrete domain.

                                        Question 28

The graph on question 27 indicates that the line segment with the end-points (0, 25) and (7, 20).

Since there is a continuous line between the points from x = 0 to x = 7.

Thus, the domain of the line function is:

  • Domain: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}

As the line segment is a continuous line. Thus, the domain is continuous.

5.69÷7 you can round to nearest hundredth
pogonyaev
The answer would be .81 becuase you can't round the 1 up to 2 becuase the number in the thousandths place is not above 5. 
Hope this helps!!

Y is a differentiable function of x. Choose the alternative that is the derivative dy / dx.
murzikaleks [220]

Differentiating both sides of

x^3-y^3=1

with respect to <em>x</em> yields (using the chain rule)

3x^2 - 3y^2 \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0

Solve for d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> :

3x^2 - 3y^2 \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 0 \\\\ 3y^2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = 3x^2 \\\\ \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx} = \dfrac{3x^2}{3y^2} = \dfrac{x^2}{y^2}

The answer is then D.

35 – 2.4 ( 7 – 5)<br> Show each step
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

35 - 2.4(7-5)

= (35/1)-(24/10)(7-5)

= [(35×10)/(1×10)]-(24/10)(2)

= (350/10)-(24/10)(2)

= (350-24)/10(2)

= 326/10(2)

= 32.6(2)

= 65.2

Thank you.
