Answer:

Percentage of votes in favour of new speed limit=50%

Step-by-step explanation:

There was a voting in Molly's town to set a new limit for the speed attained by a vehicle.

In Molly's town,

Number of votes recorded=38

Number of votes in favour of the new speed limit=19

We have to find the percentage of votes in favour of the new speed limit.

For that,the percentage of votes in favour= $\frac{votes in favour of new speed limit×100}{total votes}$

Percentage of votes in favour= $\frac{19*100}{38}$

Percentage of votes in favour=50%

A four-door sedan costs$35000 with a residual value of $2000. Its service life is five years. Using the declining balance method

larisa [96]

Answer:

At the end of the 2 year, the book value of the truck is $12,600

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

<u><em>Double declining balance method</em></u> is a form of an accelerated depreciation method in which the asset value is depreciated at twice the rate it is done in the straight-line method.

Step 1

Determine the straight-line depreciation rate

Divide the total cost by the number of years in the asset's useful life.

$\frac{\$35,000}{5}=\$7,000$

Step 2

Then, multiply that number by 2 and that is your Double-Declining Depreciation Rate

$7,000(2)=\$14,000$ -----> is the depreciation for Year 1

Step 3

At the end of the first year, the book value of the truck is

$\$35,000-\$14,000=\$21,000$

Step 4

For Year 2, we will apply the same formula to the book value of the truck by the end of Year 1

$\frac{\$21,000}{5}=\$4,200$

$4,200(2)=\$8,400$ -----> is the depreciation for Year 2

therefore

At the end of the 2 year, the book value of the truck is

$\$21,000-\$8,400=\$12,600$

Mario is constructing a square dart board. It will consist of a smaller square centered in a larger square. The smaller square m

Ivan

Answer:

6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent side length of larger square.

We know that area of square is square of its side length, so area of the larger square will be $a^2$ .

The area of smaller square would be $4^2$ .

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

$\frac{\text{Area of smaller square}}{\text{Area of larger square}}=\frac{4}{9}$

$\frac{4^2}{a^2}=\frac{4}{9}$

$\frac{16}{a^2}=\frac{4}{9}$

Cross multiply:

$4*a^2=16*9$

$\frac{4*a^2}{4}=\frac{16*9}{4}$

$a^2=36$

Take square root:

$a=\pm\sqrt{36}$

$a=\pm 6$

Since the length cannot be negative, therefore, the side length of larger square is 6 inches.

"Calculate the value of b in the triangle below." HELP PLZ WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Viktor [21]

Answer:

$b { }^{2} = (61m) {}^{2} - (11m) {}^{2}$

$b {}^{2} = 3721 - 121$

$b {}^{2} = 3600$

$\sqrt{b {}^{2} } = \sqrt{3600}$

$b = 60$

Solve (2x+3) (x+4)= 1

Digiron [165]

To solve, simply layout an equation.

(2x+3)(x+4)=1

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x2+11x+12=1

Step 2: Subtract 1 from both sides.

2x2+11x+12−1=1−1

2x2+11x+11=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=2, b=11, c=11.

x=-b±√b^2-4ac/2a

So, the answer for this problem is:

x=-11/4+1/4√33 or -11/4+-1/4√33
