Sandra is 4 feet tall. Pablo is 10% taller than Sandra and Michaels is 8% taller than Pablo. What is Michael height in feet

Mathematics
1 answer:
taurus [48]3 years ago
5 0


We first calculate  Pablo's height .

4 = 100%

x = 1%  (Where x is 1% of  Sandra's height.)

cross multiplying the equation, we get:

100x = 4 →  x = 4/100  → x = 0.04

If 1% = 0.04, then 10%  will be 0.04 × 10 = 0.4

Pablo's height is 4 + 0.4 =  4.4 feet.

Now we repeat the above steps to get Michal's height from Pablo's height

4.4 = 100%

x =  1%       so:

100x = 4.4 → x = 4.4/ 100 → x = 0.044

If 1% = 0.044, then 8% will be 0.044 × 8 = 0.35

Michael's height is  4.4 + 0.35 = 4.75 feet.

What is the probability of randomly drawing an odd number between 24 and 33?
Studentka2010 [4]
Write out the numbers between 24 and 33:  {24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33}

How many numbers have we here?  10.

How many of these numbers are odd?  {25, 27, 29, 31, 33}

Strictly speaking, "between 24 and 33" does not include {24, 33}.

Thus, the odd numbers between 24 and 33 are {25, 27, 29, 31}

The chances of drawing an odd number between 24 and 33 are then 4 / 10.

If, however, we omit the endpoints 24 and 33, then there are 8 numbers between 24 and 33:  {25, 27, 29, 31}

and the odds of choosing an odd number from these eight numbers is 4/8, or 1/2, or 0.50.

One angle is 25° bigger than another angle. the two angles are supplementary. what is the measure of the two angles
Rama09 [41]
1st angle  - x⁰
2nd angle - (x+25)⁰
The angles are supplementary,
so
x+x+25=180
2x=155
x=77.5⁰ -1st angle

77.5+25=102.5⁰ - 2nd angle

A sum of money is divided in the ratio 2 : 3 : 7 .Given the largest share is $112,calculate the smallest share.
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$32

Step-by-step explanation:

A sum of money is divided in the ratio 2:3:7.

Let the share of each individual be represented by 2x,3x,7x respectively.

The largest share (7x) is given as $112.

\[7x = 112\]

\[=>x = \frac{112}{7}\]

\[=>x = 16\]

So the respective shares are \[2\times16,3\times16,7\times16\]

In other words, the shares are 32,48,112.

So the smallest share is $32
