sell to local restaurants.
How many pounds of fish would be in each package?

8.6 would be in one but you could round your answer to 9 or just keep it that way

the ratio between length and breadth of a rectangle is 7 : 5 find its length and breadth if it its perimeter is 60 m

Furkat [3]

Answer:

length= 17.5 m , breadth = 12.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of length : breadth = 7 : 5 = 7x : 5x ( x is a multiplier )

Then

2l + 2b = perimeter ( l is length, b is breadth )

2(7x) + 2(5x) = 60

14x + 10x = 60

24x = 60 ( divide both sides by 24 )

x = 2.5

Then

length = 7x = 7 × 2.5 = 17.5 m

breadth = 5x = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 m

Please help me! 7 points!! I don’t understand

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

This is adding two vectors, one magnitude 300 direction east, and one magnitude 100 direction 30 degrees northeast.

For the resulting sum we can use the Law of Cosines or just add up the components. Let's try it both ways.

Components first. In the east direction we have

300 + 100 cos 30° = 300 + 100(√3/2) = 386.60 miles per hour

In the north direction we have

0 + 100 sin 30° = 100 (1/2) = 50 miles per hour

So a total speed of

sqrt{386.6^2 + 50^2} = 389.82 miles per hour

Answer: 389.82

--------

OK let's try the Law of Cosines. We have sides 300 and 100 and included angle 150°.

$c^2 = 300^2 + 100^2 - 2 (300)(100) \cos 150^\circ$

$c=\sqrt{151961.52422} = 389.82 \quad\checkmark$

−7x−6y=2<br> 7x+4y=−6<br> solve for x and y

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:system\:of\:equations\:are:x=-2,\:y=2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin{bmatrix}-7x-6y=2\\ 7x+4y=-6\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Substitute\:}x=-\frac{2+6y}{7}$

$\begin{bmatrix}7\left(-\frac{2+6y}{7}\right)+4y=-6\end{bmatrix}$

$\begin{bmatrix}-2-2y=-6\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathrm{For\:}x=-\frac{2+6y}{7}$

$\mathrm{Substitute\:}y=2$

$x=-\frac{2+6\cdot \:2}{7}\\\\x=-2$

Suppose these show number of hours each student in a class slept last night:

Olin [163]

⊂ Hey, rosedalphinis ⊃

Answer:

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>⇒ Given:</em></u>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>Suppose these show number of hours each student in a class slept last night:</em>

<em>8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6</em>

<em>What is the mean of these numbers (rounded to the nearest tenth)?</em>

<em>What is the median?</em>

<em>Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours</em>

<em>Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7.5 hours</em>

<em>Mean: 7 hours; Median 6.9 hours</em>

<em>Mean: 7.2 hours; Median 7 hours</em>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<u><em>⇒ Solution~:</em></u>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>Let's first define "Median".</em>

<em>You may be wondering "What is median/What is mean?".</em>

<em>When it asking for "Mean" It asking for the average.</em>

<em>When it asking for "Median" It asking for the middle number.</em>

<em>The formula for "Mean" is : M = sum of the terms/number of terms</em>

<em />

<em>According to the given we have;</em>

<em>8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6</em>

<em />

<em>Let's first find the "Mean":</em>

<em>First, add all the number together.</em>

<em>8 + 4 + 8 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>12 + 8 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>20 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>27 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>34 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>43+ 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>49+ 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>54+ 10 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>64 + 7 + 6 + 6</em>

<em>71+ 6 + 6</em>

<em>77 + 6</em>

<em>= 83</em>

<em>Now let's count how many numbers of hours each student in a class slept.</em>

<em>8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6 = 12</em>

<em>Now 83 divide by 12:</em>

<em>83/12 = 6.9166666666667 {Round}</em>

<em>6.9166666666667 = 6.9</em>

<em>Therefore, Mean = 6.9</em>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>Next, Let's find the "Median":</em>

<em>To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle.</em>

<em>⇒ 8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6</em>

<em>⇒ 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10</em>

<em>Now we have them in order:</em>

<em>4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10</em>

<em>Then, we find the middle number:</em>

<u><em>4,</em></u><em> 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, </em><u><em>10</em></u>

<u><em>4, 5,</em></u><em> 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, </em><u><em>9, 10</em></u>

<u><em>4, 5, 6,</em></u><em> 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, </em><u><em>8, 9, 10</em></u>

<u><em>4, 5, 6, 6, </em></u><em>6, 7, 7, 7, </em><u><em>8, 8, 9, 10</em></u>

<u><em>4, 5, 6, 6, 6, </em></u><em>7, 7,</em><u><em> 7, 8, 8, 9, 10</em></u>

<em />

<em>Now You see that there two's 7 left.</em>

<em> If there is an even number of numbers add the two middles and divide by 2</em>

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>7 + 7 = 14</em>

<em>14/2 = 7</em>

<em>Therefore, Median = 7.</em>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>According to the solving above we can conclude that:</em>

<em>Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours</em>

<em>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>
