Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

855

Step-by-step explanation:

1.9 seconds is 19 tenths, so that means we add using the information given, which is that the ball travels 5 fewer inches every tenth of a second:

Time | Inches traveled

0.1     | 90

0.2    | 85

0.3    | 80

0.4    | 75

0.5    | 70

0.6    | 65

0.7    | 60

0.8    | 55

0.9    | 50

1.0     | 45

1.1      | 40

1.2     | 35

1.3     | 30

1.4     | 25

1.5     | 20

1.6     | 15

1.7     | 10

1.8     | 5

1.9     | 0

90+85+80+75+70+65+60+55+50+45+40+35+30+25+20+15+10+5+0=855

three-quarters of a pile of bricks were used for a certain project. when two thirds of the reminder had been used, 50 bricks wer
kati45 [8]

Answer:

600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider this question using algebra.

Imagine the number of bricks in the original pile is x.

We are told that \frac{3}{4} of the bricks are used for a project, meaning that \frac{3}{4} x has been used, leaving us with \frac{1}{4}x as our remainder.

Then, we are told that \frac{2}{3} of the remainder are used to leave us with 50 bricks. This means that \frac{1}{3} of the remainder is left, and this is equal to 50 bricks. This means that the remainder's original amount is equal to 150, because we are told that \frac{1}{3} of the remainder is equal to 50.

So, we know that the remainder is 150, and we also know that the remainder is \frac{1}{4} x. Let's now use these to form an equation.

\frac{1}{4} x = 150

Because we know that a quarter of the original amount of bricks is equal to 150, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 4 to get the original amount of bricks in the pile.

x = 150 * 4 = 600

So, there were 600 bricks in the original pile.

a circle is placed in a square with a side length of 6yd, as shown below. Find the area of the shaded region. Use the value 3.14
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

<u>7.74 yd²</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Area (shaded) = Area (square) - Area (circle)
  • Area (shaded) = 6 x 6 - 3.14 x 3 x 3
  • [ Note : radius of circle = 1/2 of the side of the square]
  • Area (shaded) = 36 - 28.26
  • Area (shaded) = <u>7.74 yd²</u>

9/24=3/y how do we get the answer to this question
mestny [16]
Because it is an equation, we know that whatever is on both sides of the equation must be equal. The initial fraction, 9/24, can be further simplified (both numbers made smaller, divided by a common factor). In this case, 9/24 must be divided by something to be equal to 3/y (the y just means we don’t know it’s value yet). If we know that we can divide 9 by 3 to get 3, then we can divide the denominator of the first side of the equation (24) by 3 to get our answer to y.

Basically, in this case we need to find what number to divide 9 by to end up with 3 (that is 3, as 3x3=9) and divide 24 by that number. 24 divided by 3 is 8, as 3x8=24. So, if we know we can reduce 9/24 into 3/8, we can write that as 9/24=3/8. Therefore, y=8.

Hope this helps, good luck!
