No, Lonnie is not correct because the correct answer is 5/6. If you do 35/42 divide both by 7, it'll be 5/6.

The amounts of household waste generated in a region during two years were 23,400,000 tons and 48,100,000 tons. What was the tot
trasher [3.6K]

The first step to do is to calculate first the total household waste generate for the two years. That is:

total waste generated = 23,400,000 tons + 48,100,000 tons

total waste generated = 71,500,000 tons

 

Now, to write either a very big number or a very small number in a form of scientific notation simply means to write it in a decimal form such as: 12.5 * 10^10

 

Now to write 71,500,000 in scientific notation, the decimal form is 7.15, however we still need to find out the * 10^n factor. The value of n depends on the number of places the decimal point was moved. If the movement was from right to left, the value of n is positive and if the movement was from right to left, the value of n is negative. Since the decimal point was moved by 7 places, hence the complete scientific notation is:

 

7.15 * 10^7 tons

At a movie theatre adult tickets cost $10 and child ticjets cost $6. Which equation can be used to find s, the number of dollars
timurjin [86]

Answer:

s = 10k + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of Adults ticket = $10 per adult

Cost of Ticket = $6 per child

Number of adults = k

Number of Children = 5

s = Total cost

Total cost = (Cost per adult * number of adults) + (Cost per child * Number of children)

s = ($10 * k) + ($6 * 5)

s = $10k + $30

s = 10k + 30

2. The ratio of radii of two cylinders is 1:2 and heights are in the ratio 2:3. Find the ratio of their volumes.
Savatey [412]

Answer: \frac{1}{6} or 1:6

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder can be found with the following formula:

V=\pi r^2h

Where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height of the cylinder.

In this case, let be:

- V_1 the volume of one of this cylinders and V_2 the volume of the other one.

- r_1 the radius of the first one and r_2 the radius of the other cylinder.

- h_1 the height of one of them and h_2 the height of the other cylinder.

Then:

V_1=\pi r_1^2h_1\\\\V_2=\pi r_2^2h_2

Therefore, you know this:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{\pi r_1^2h_1}{\pi r_2^2h_2}

Simplifying, you get:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{ r_1^2h_1}{ r_2^2h_2}

Now, knowing the ratios given in the exercise, you can substitute them into the equation:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{1^2*2}{ 2^2*3}

Evaluating, you get:

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{2}{ 4*3}\\\\\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{2}{12}\\\\\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{1}{6}
