Answer:

<em>2</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price = 60 Ghana cedis for 50 metres

Selling price = 1.50 cedis for 1 meter

x cedis for 50 meters

Cross multiply

Selling price = 75 cedis

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

75 - 60

Profit = 15

Profit % =

\frac{profit}{cost \: price}  \times  \frac{100}{1}  \\  \frac{15}{60}  \times  \frac{100}{1}  \\  \\

Profit % = 25 %

Lady Liberty holds a tablet in her left hand. The tablet is 7.19 m long and 4.14 m wide. If you made a scale drawing using the s
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: Option D; w = 5.52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the width of the tablet is 4.14m

We want to do a scale drawing such that 1cm is equivalent to 0.75m.

Then, the first thing we need to do is count how many times we have 0.75m in the 4.14m

This is equal to:

N = 4.14m/0.75m = 5.52

And we know that each one of these is equivalent to one centimeter in the scaled tablet.

then we have that the width of the scaled tablet is:

W = 1cm*N = 1cm*(5.52) = 5.52 cm

The correct option is D.

There are 10 mm in one cm and 100 cm in 1m. an adult alligator is about 4,000 mm long and an adult crocodile is abt 6m long
OLEGan [10]
Answer: crocodile is longer
To get from mm to m, you would divide by 1000. 4000/1000 is 4, meaning the alligator is 4m and the croc is 6m (therefore longer)

By what percent has the rhinoceros weight increased
romanna [79]

let's first off  convert those mixed fractions to improper fractions, then get their difference.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{3}{2}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{10}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 10+1}{10}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{21}{10}} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \cfrac{21}{10}-\cfrac{3}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{using the LCD of 10}}{\cfrac{(1)21-(5)3}{10}}\implies \cfrac{21-15}{10}\implies \cfrac{6}{10}\implies \cfrac{3}{5}

now, the original amount, 3/2, if that is the 100%, what is 3/5 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2}\\ \frac{3}{2}&100\\\\ \frac{3}{5}&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{3}{2}~~}{\frac{3}{5}}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{3}{2}\cdot \cfrac{5}{3}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 5x=200\implies x=\cfrac{200}{5}\implies x=40

The formula for electrical power is P, is P= I^2 R, where I is current and R is resistance. The formula for I in terms of. P and
Butoxors [25]

Ans

I = sqrt(P/R)

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide both sides by R first

P/R = I^2 R/R

So,

I^2 = P/R

take the square root of both sides

I = sqrt(P/R)
