There is a formula for the area of a parallelogram which is bxh
(base x height)
Remember the height is always straight so do not use the 12 value.
21x9=189
Hope this helped!
Answer:
3/8 of the total floor is covered by red carpeting
Step-by-step explanation:
-------------------------------------------
Define x:
-------------------------------------------
Let the shorter piece be x.
Shorter piece = x
Longer piece = 6x
-------------------------------------------
Construct equation:
-------------------------------------------
x +6x =35
7x = 35
x =5
-------------------------------------------
Find the length:
-------------------------------------------
Shorter length = x = 5 feet
Larger length = 6x = 6(5) = 30 feet
-------------------------------------------
Answer: The shorter piece is 5 feet.
-------------------------------------------
Since a small drink is the cheapest, make the cost of a small drink=x. Since a large drink costs 50 cents more than a small drink, let a large drink=x+50. The total of the drinks is the sum of the individuals. Since the cost of a small drink is x, 3 drinks cost 3x. Since the cost of a large drink is x+50, the cost of 2 drinks is 2(x+50). The cost of all of the drinks together is 3x+2(x+50). Distribute the 2. 3x+2x+100. Combine like terms. 5x+100. This will give you your answer in cents. If you need an answer in dollars, you multiply that expression by 0.01.
Answer:
d. Ore treated with the new process.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a common practice in statistics, in which we use a sample of a population to infer something about the entire population. We should use a sample of 100.
For example, if we want to know the proportion of residents of Buffalo, New York, who are Bills fans, we are going to take a sample of like, 100 residents, and then use this to estimate for the entire city.
In this problem, we have that:
A new process that is supposed to increase the recovered amount is being tested. In a simple random sample of 100 batches of ore, an average of 42 pounds per ton were recovered using the new process.
So the population of interest is the ore treated with new process. We use a sample of 100 to gather information about the entire population.
So the correct answer is:
d. Ore treated with the new process.
