600,000 pound = 300 tons

3 * 10^n = 300

10^n = 100

10^2 = 100

so n = 2

The original price of a skateboard was $85. The owner of the store

lora16 [44]

Answer:

$\$68$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

To solve this problem, one wants to find the price of a product after its discount has been applied. The discount is 20% off, so the new price of the item is 80% of its original price (percent is out of 100 so if a an item is 20% off, it is 100 - 20 = 80; 80% the original price). To calculate the percent cost, one would divide the percent value by 100, and then multiply it by the price of the item.

2. Solving

The price of the new item is 80% of the price of the original item. To calculate the percent cost, cent, one would divide the percent value by 100, and then multiply it by the price of the item.

Therefore, the equation that will be formed is,

$price * \frac{percent}{100}$

Substitute,

$85 * \frac{80}{100}$

Simplify,

$85 * 0.8\\\\= 68$

Felicia places a rectangular rug that measures 10 feet by 11 feet in a triangular room with a base of 30 feet and height of 22 f

arsen [322]

Answer:

1. Area of rectangular rug is $110 ft^{2}$

2. Area of triangular room is $330ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of flat shapes, rectangle and triangle.

step one

let us start by solving for the area of the rectangular rug

given data

Area A = ?

Length l = 11 ft

Width w= 10 ft

we know that the area of a rectangle is expressed as

$Area=Length * Width$

substituting our given data we have

$Area= 11*10\\Area= 110 ft^{2}$

step two

let us solve for the area of the triangular room

given data

Area A = ?

base b = 30 ft

height h= 22 ft

we know that the area of a triangle is expressed as

$Area= \frac{1}{2} *base* height\\$

substituting our given data we have

$Area= \frac{1}{2} * 30* 22\\Area=\frac{660}{2} \\Area= 330 ft^{2}$

Need help with problem, been stuck on it for a while

Alinara [238K]

Well, if you look at the picture, the "radius" is 1/4, so r = 1/4.

$\bf \textit{diameter of a circle}\\\\
d= 2r\qquad \boxed{r=\frac{1}{4}}\implies d=2\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies d=\cfrac{1}{2}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{circumference of a circle}\\\\
C=2\pi r\qquad \boxed{r=\frac{1}{4}~,~\pi =\cfrac{22}{7}}\implies C=2\left( \frac{22}{7} \right)\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)
\\\\\\
C=\cfrac{2\cdot 22\cdot 1}{7\cdot 4}\implies C=\cfrac{11}{7}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\
A=\pi r^2\qquad \boxed{r=\frac{1}{4}~,~\pi =\cfrac{22}{7}}\implies A=\left( \frac{22}{7} \right)\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^2
\\\\\\
A=\cfrac{22}{7}\cdot \cfrac{1^2}{4^2}\implies A=\cfrac{22}{7}\cdot \cfrac{1}{16}\implies A=\cfrac{11}{56}$
