Lana71 [14]3 years ago

5 0

'is' in mathematics means equal
'of' in mathematics means multiplication

If we translate "What number is 85% of 60?" into a mathematical equation, we get:

x = 85% * 60

85% can also be expressed as 85/100, since % or percent means over 100.

x = 85/100 * 60

x = 0.85 * 60

x = 51

51 is 85% of 60.

Find the measure of arc DF

givi [52]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle E is one-half the measure of the difference between arc CG and arc DF. Mathematically, that looks like this:

$44=\frac{1}{2}(160-DF)$ and

44(2) = 160 - DF and

88 = 160 - DF and

-72 = -DF so

DF = 72 degrees, second choice down

A rectangular sandbox has a width that's 1⁄4 of its length. The total area of the sandbox is 36 square feet. Find the dimensions

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Dimensions of box

Length is 12 feet

Width is 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume length of sandbox is L

width of box is W

we are given

A rectangular sandbox has a width that's 1⁄4 of its length

so, we can write as

$W=\frac{1}{4}L$

we know that

area = length*width

so, we get

$A=L\times W$

now, we can plug back W

$A=L\times \frac{1}{4}L$

we can set Area=36

$36=L\times \frac{1}{4}L$

now, we can solve for L

$L^2=144$

$L=12$

now, we can find W

$W=\frac{1}{4}\times 12$

$W=3$

So, dimensions of box

Length is 12 feet

Width is 3 feet
