I could be wrong, but just divide 31,800 by 365 which would give you the number of fatalities each day, then divide that number by 24. that should give you the number of deaths in an hour. Again, could be totally wrong.

2500 + 20%=what's the answer
zysi [14]

Answer:

  as written: 2500.2

  as intended: 3000

Step-by-step explanation:

20% = 0.2, so adding 0.2 to 2500 gives 2500.2

_____

We suspect you want to add 20% of 2500 to 2500. That is ...

  2500 + 20%×2500

  = 2500 + 0.20×2500

  = 2500 + 500

  = 3000

_____

<em>Comment on percentages</em>

A percentage is a pure number. It is a ratio of like quantities, so has no units.* A <em>useful</em> percentage always has a base. That is, it is a percentage <em>of something</em>. Sometimes that base may be unclear or unstated, in which case the percentage might very well be considered to be meaningless.

In any event, a percentage is simply a (unitless) fraction. The "%" symbol means the same thing as "/100", so 20% means 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5.

The very clear math expression 2500 +20% means simply 2500 + 1/5, which is the mixed number 2500 1/5 or the decimal value 2500.2. Usually, when we want to add a percentage to some value, we want the percentage to be <em>of the original value</em>. When that is written as a math expression, it must show this:

  2500 + 20% of 2500

  2500 + 20%×2500

  2500(1 +20%)

_____

* The concentration or potency of some medicines or other mixtures may be expressed as a percentage that is the ratio of one unit to a different unit, typically weight per volume. That is, a "0.1%" preparation may be 0.1 grams per 100 mL, for example. You have to read the label to determine whether this is the case. Mathematically, this is not a percentage, but is a non-standard use of the "%" symbol to indicate a ratio to 100 of something.

A square pyramid is shown below: What is the surface area of the pyramid?
Reptile [31]
Well first you would find the area of the square on the bottom
Which would be:
            0.7*0.7= .49
Then we would find the area of one of the triangles on the side:
           8*0.7= 5.6* 1/2= 2.8
Next, you will multiply the 2.8 by 4, because there are 4 triangles:
          2.8*4=11.2
Finally add the 11.2 to the area of the square, and you'll have your answer.
          .49+11.2= 11.69
So, B is your answer
