18 is 20% of what number?

2 answers:

7 0

Hi there!

18 is 20% of 90. Why, you may ask?

To solve we just divide both sides by 0.2

We would start off with 0.2x = 18.
NOW divide.
x = 90.

We can check this by seeing that 20% of 90 is equal to 18.

Hope this helps!

Its 3.6 because you take 20%=20%/100% =0.2

20%=0.2

multiply 0.2 by 18 0.2*18= 3.6 i hope this help you :)

Students in a zoology class took a final exam. They took equivalent forms of the exam at monthly intervals thereafter. After t

juin [17]

Answer:

a. 73; b. 48.9; c. 2; d. 33.8; e. 73

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the function was

S(t)= 73 - 15 ln(t + 1), t ≥ 0

a. Average score at t = 0

S(0) = 73 - 15 ln(0 + 1) = 73 - 15 ln(1) = 73 - 15(0) =73 - 0 = 73

b. Average score at t = 4

S(4) = 73 - 15 ln(4 + 1) = 73 - 15 ln(5) = 73 - 15(1.61) =73 - 24.14 = 48.9

c. Average score at t =24

S(24) = 73 - 15 ln(24 + 1) = 73 - 15 ln(25) = 73 - 15(3.22) =73 - 48.28 = 24.7

d. Percent of answers retained

At t = 0. the students retained 73 % of the answers.

At t = 24, they retained 24.7 % of the answers.

$\text{Percent retention} = \dfrac{\text{24.7}}{\text{73}} \times 100 \, \% = \text{33.8 \%}\\\\\text{The students retained $\large \boxed{\mathbf{33.8 \, \%}}$ of their original knowledge after two years.}$

e. Maximum of the function

The maximum of the function is at t= 0.

Max = 73 %

A pyramid-shaped vat has square cross-section and stands on its tip. The dimensions at the top are 2 m × 2 m, and the depth is 5

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

the water level increases at a rate of 1.718 m/min when the depth is 4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of the pyramid is

V = (1/3)(height)(area of base) = 1/3 H*L²

For the diagonal in the pyramid

tg Ф = Side Length/ Height = L / H = x / h

where h= depth of water , x= side of the corresponding cross section

therefore x= L *h/H

the volume of the water is

v= 1/3 h*x² = 1/3 (L/H)² h³

in terms of time

v = Q*t

then

Q*t = 1/3 (L/H)² h³

h³ = 3*(H/L)² *Q *t

h = ∛(3*(H/L)² *Q *t) = ∛(3*(H/L)² *Q) *∛t = k* ∛t , where k=∛(3*(H/L)² *Q)

h = k* ∛t

then the rate of increase in depth is dh/dt

dh/dt = 1/3*k* t^(-2/3)

since

t = (h/k)³

dh/dt = 1/3*k* t^(-2/3) = 1/3*k* (h/k)³ ^(-2/3) = 1/3*k* (h/k)^(-2) = 1/3 k³ / h²

= 1/3 (3*(H/L)²*Q) / h² = (H/L)²*Q /h²

dh/dt= [H/(h*L)]²*Q

replacing values, when h=4m

dh/dt= [H/(h*L)]²*Q = [5m/(4m*2m)]² * (3m³/min)= 1.718 m/min
