Calculate the number of acres required to produce 1,000 gallons of oil in one year from microalgae and soybeans. Which one (micr

oalgae or soybeans) requires less space?
Mathematics

Answer:

microalgae required less space.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of oil to be produced = 1,000 gallons

Now,

We know

10,000 gallons of oil is extracted from the miroalgae per acre per year

and,

From soyabeans the oil extracted = 50 gallons per acre per year

therefore,

To produce 1,000 gallons number of acres required by microalgae

= [ Amount of oil to be produced ] ÷ [ oil extracted per acre from microalgae]

= 1,000 ÷ 10,000

= 0.1 acres

similarly

To produce 1,000 gallons number of acres required by soyabeans

= [ Amount of oil to be produced ] ÷ [ oil extracted per acre from soyabeans]

= 1,000 ÷ 50

= 20 acres

hence,

microalgae required less space.

Hi!
To find this math problem your going to need to use a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^2 means squared)

So if we look at the shape , they entire shape makes for triangles . (I'm going to be using the upper right triangle to solve this problem just so your following me)
So one side of the "triangle" is 6 and that's like the bottom of the triangle . And your hypotenuse is 10.

So using that formula , plug in 6 and 10 so we can find the other missing side
a^2 + 6^2 = 10^2
A^2 + 36 = 100
100-36 = 64
SQAURE ROOT of 64 = 8

Your missing side length is 8
8 + 8 = 16

DB= 16. ( you have to add them together to get the full length)

I hope this helps you :)

Answer:

Perimeter 182 cm, area= 2,028 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the given rectangle is

  2(6 cm + 8 cm) = 28 cm

The area of the given rectangle is

  (6 cm)*(8 cm) = 48 cm^2

The larger rectangle will have a perimeter of

  6.5*28 cm = 182 cm

The larger rectangle will have an area of

  6.5^2*48 cm^2 = 2028 cm^2 . . . . . note the scale factor is squared for area

The appropriate choice is the 3rd one, ...

  Perimeter = 182 cm, area = 2,028 cm^2

Cot (15 degrees)
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Part I: cot(15 degrees) = cot(45 - 30)

Part II: Evaluation is below

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Everything is done in degrees</em>

<em />

Two angles that differ by 15 degrees that is easy to evaluate is 30 degrees and 45 degrees. The cot(15 degrees) = cot(45 - 30) = 1/tan(45-30) = (1+tan45tan30)/(tan30 - tan45) = (1+ sqrt(3))/(sqrt(3) - 1)

We rationalize this by multiplying 1+ sqrt(3) in the top and bottom, getting:

(4 + 2sqrt(3))/2 = 2 + sqrt(3)

I hope this helps! :)

75% increase followed by 50% decrease is it greater than to original
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

  • Set original amount = x

<u>After a 75% increase, it would become</u>

x + 75%x = x + 0.75x = x(1 + 0.75) = 1.75x

<u>After a 50% decrease, it would become</u>

1.75x - 50%(1.75x) = 1.75x - 0.5(1.75x) = 1.75x - 0.875x = 0.875x = \frac{7}{8} x

Because \frac{7}{8} x is less than x, the new amount would be less than the original.
