Rebecca moves to a large city that had two event stadiums. The larger stadium can hold 4.5 times 10^4 people, which is about 15

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

3,000 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people larger stadium can hold equals 4.5 times $10^{4}$ people,

which equals 45,000 people.

Now,

it is given that larger stadium can hold 15 times more people than small stadium .

So, smaller stadium will hold 15 times less people than the larger stadium ,

Which equals , $\frac{45000}{15}$ = 3,000 people.

Thus ,

Smaller stadium can hold a total of 3,000 people.

The diameter of a circular tablecloth is 72 inches. Find the area and circumference. Use 3.14 as an approximation for pi.

nalin [4]

Answer:

Part 1) The area is $A=4,069.44\ in^{2}$

Part 2) The circumference is $C=226.08\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area

we know that

The area of a circle (circular tablecloth) is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=72/2=36\ in$ ------> the radius is half the diameter

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$A=(3.14)(36)^{2}$

$A=4,069.44\ in^{2}$

step 2

Find the circumference

we know that

The circumference of a circle (circular tablecloth) is equal to

$C=\pi D$

we have

$D=72\ in$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$C=(3.14)(72)$

$C=226.08\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

9$ x 71 hours (rewritten) 9x 71 = 639

plus the commission

10% x 1,901$ (rewritten) .1 x 1,901 = 190.1

639 + 190.1 = 829.1

Which is the equation of the parabola?

mestny [16]

Answer:

y = -1/20(x + 3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Consider the parent function:</u>

y = x²

The graph of the function open up and the vertex is at the origin, the point (0, 0)

Now, if it opens down, it means it is a reflection of the parent function over x axis, hence it has a negative coefficient, the function becomes:

y = -x²

The vertex is shifted to the point (-3, 0). It means the function also translated left by 3 units, the function becomes:

y = -(x + 3)²

<u>Since all the options have 1/20 as a coefficient, our function is:</u>

y = -1/20(x + 3)²

This is option B

Evaluate x1 - x-1 + x0 for x = 2.

Gnoma [55]

Hi! For this problem, you must replace the letter “X” with the number 2. Your equation will then be (2*1)- (2-1)+ (2*0). This will then simplify to: 2 - 1 + 0. Therefore, your final answer will be:
