Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find out how many games they won:

x/15 = 80/100

Cross multiply

x × 100 = 15 × 80

100x = 1200

x = 12

They won 12 out of 15 games

Second, find out how many wins out of 30 games are needed to have a 90% winning percentage

x/30 = 90/100

Cross multiply

x × 100 = 30 × 90

100x = 2700

x = 27

27 game wins are needed to have a 90% winning percentage

Lastly, find the difference between 27 wins (total needed) and 12 wins (total number of wins they currently have)

27 - 12 = 15

They need to win 15 more games to have a 90% winning percentage

HELP!! Suppose the area of a circle is 201.0624 square feet. What's the diameter of the circle? (Use π = 3.1416.)
Liono4ka [1.6K]

<u>Answer</u>

C. 16 feet


<u>Explanation</u>

The area of a circle is given by the formula:

Area = πr² Where r is the radius of the circle and π = 3.1416

201.0624 = 3.1416 × r²

r² = 201.0624/3.1416

    = 64

r = √64

   = 8 feet

Diameter is twice the radius.

∴ diameter = 2r

                  = 2 × 8

                  = 16 feet
