Beatrix was able to eat 21 raisins. Now, this 21 raisins is said to be 30% of the number of raisins inside the box. T
he question is, how many raisins, will there be in total inside the box?
Equation and solutions:
=> 30% = 30% / 100% = .31
=> .31x = 21
=> .31x / .31 = 21 / .31
=> x = 67.8 total number of raisins inside the box, or let's convert it to whole number
=> 67.8 = 68 count <span>

Earth revolves on its axis once every 24 hours. Which statement are true ? Check all that apply

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The angular velocity of Earth is π/12 radians per hour.

The angular velocity of Earth is 2π radians per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

A full circumference of a circle (as the Equator line on Earth) is 2π radians.

Since the planet does a full revolution in 24 hours... that means it makes a full turn in a day.

So, we can see that in a day, the planet rotates 360 degrees... or 2π radians per day!

Now, if you want to find the angular velocity per HOUR... you divide that by 24... so 2π/24 = π/12 radians

So, we can also say it does π/12 radians per hour.

NEED HELP FAST!!!!! The graph below compares plant height to the age of the plant, in weeks. Y=1.3x-0.8 Based on the graph, whic

salantis [7]

Answer:

C) 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

$Y=1.3x-0.8$

The function compares plant height in inches to the age of plant in weeks.

So, we can say

$Y$ represents height of plant in inches.

$x$ represents age of the plant in weeks.

In order to predict the height of the plant in 5 weeks, we will plugin $x=5$ in the given function and evaluate $Y$

⇒ $Y=1.3(5)-0.8$

⇒ $Y=6.5-0.8$

⇒ $Y=5.7$ inches

Thus the approximate height of plant in 5 weeks would be $\approx 6$ inches

The base of an isosceles triangle is one and a half times the length of the other two sides. A smaller triangle has a perimeter

stira [4]

Answer:

P = 1.5x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of each side of the first triangle be x, then

Perimeter of this triangle

= 2x + 1.5x

= 3.5x.

So perimeter of smaller triangle is:

P = 1/2 * 3.5x

P = 1,.5x.
