6 0

Answer: Both plants grow at same rate ie., 4/3 cm per day

Step-by-step explanation:

8 cm = 6 days

1 day = 1/6 x 8 = 4/3 cm

12 cm = 9 days

1 day = 1/9 x 12 = 4/3 cm

It is estimated that only 68% of drivers wear their safety belt. How many people should a police officer expect pull over until
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

D. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent of drivers who wear seat belts = 68

Percent of drivers who do not wear seat belts = 100 - 68 = 32

Now, we know that for every 100 pull overs, 32 drivers will not be wearing belt.

32 drivers without seat-belt = 100 pullovers

1 driver without seat-belt = 100/32 pullovers

1 driver without seat-belt = 3.125 pullovers (4 pullovers)

So, a police officer should expect 4 pullovers until she finds a driver not wearing a seat-belt.

An open box is made from a 20 cm x 3 cm piece of tin by cutting a square from each corner and folding up the edges. The area of
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Length of the final sides: 6 cm and 16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of the sides of the original box are

L=20 cm\\W=10 cm

Later, a piece of tin is cut out from each corner; the piece cut out has the shape of the square: we can call the length of its generic side x. Therefore, the dimensions of the box will now be:

L'=L-2x\\W'=W-2x

We also know that the area is

A=96 cm^2

And the area can be written as product of length and width, therefore:

A=L'W'

So we find:

A=(L-2x)(W-2x)\\96=(20-2x)(10-2x)

Solving for x,

96=200-20x-40x+4x^2\\4x^2-60x+104=0\\\\x^2-15x-26=0

Which has two solutions:

x = 13 cm (this is larger than the initial length of the width, therefore we discard it)

x = 2 cm

So, the length of the new sides are

L=20-2x=20-2(2)=16 cm\\W=10-2x=10-2(2)=6 cm

Answer for 7 and 8 please and explanation if possible
ASHA 777 [7]
7. To find the area of a triangle you use base x height /2.  so the base is 10 and the height is 25 so you do 10 x 25 first which is 250 then divide by 2 which gives you 125 so the area of each pennant is 125 cm^2 ( the ^2 means squared)

8. To find the area of a square you do length x Width. Since for a square all sides are the same the length AND the width are both 450cm. Now you just do 450 x 450 which gives you 202,500 cm^2. BUT it asks for an answer written in SQUARE METRES so you have to change 450cm to metres making it 4.5 metres x 4.5 metres = 20.25  SO THE REAL ANSWER IS 20.25 M^2

Hope this helps you out!
