Answer:

15 nuts do not get found.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Of a squirrel's hidden nuts, for every 5 that get found, there are 3 that do not get found.

Total number of nuts squirrel had hidden = 40

Proportion of nuts not found to total = 3/(3+5) = 3/8

Hence out of 40, nuts not found =3/8(40) = 15 nuts.

15 nuts would not be found and 25 nuts would be found if squirrel had hidden in total 40 nuts.

This is because the proportion of found:unfound = 5:3

Hence 25:!5 =5:3 satisfies this

15 nuts are not found.

180 lb 12 oz - 79.3 kg = ___________ kg

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$180lb\ 12 oz - 79.3kg = 2.8kg$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$180\ lb 12\ oz - 79.3kg$

Required

Solve

First, convert 180lb to kg

$1lb \to 0.454kg$

$180lb \to 180 *0.454kg$

$180lb \to 81.7kg$ -- to 1dp

Next, convert 12oz to kg

$1oz \to 0.03kg$

$12oz \to 12 * 0.03kg$

$12oz \to 0.4kg$ --- to 1 dp

So, the expression becomes:

$180\ lb 12\ oz - 79.3kg$

$81.7kg + 0.4kg - 79.3kg$

$= 2.8kg$

Hence:

$180lb\ 12 oz - 79.3kg = 2.8kg$

The coordinates of the vertices of a rectangle are (−3, 4) , (7, 2) , (6, −3) , and (−4, −1) . What is the perimeter of the rect

ki77a [65]

Answrer

Find out the what is the perimeter of the rectangle .

To prove

Now as shown in the figure.

Name the coordinates as.

A(−3, 4) ,B (7, 2) , C(6, −3) , and D(−4, −1) .

In rectangle opposite sides are equal.

Thus

AB = DC

AD = BC

Formula

$Disatnce\ formula = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}$

Now the points A(−3, 4) and B(7, 2)

$AB = \sqrt{(7- (-3))^{2} +(2- 4)^{2}}$

$AB = \sqrt{(10)^{2} +(-2)^{2}}$

$AB = \sqrt{100+4}$

$AB = \sqrt{104}$

$AB = 2\sqrt{26}\units$

Thus

$CD= 2\sqrt{26}\units$

Now the points

A (−3, 4) , D (−4, −1)

$AD = \sqrt{(-4 - (-3))^{2} +(-1- 4)^{2}}$

$AD = \sqrt{(-1)^{2} +(-5)^{2}}$

$AD = \sqrt{1 + 25}$

$AD = \sqrt{26}\units$

Thus

$BC = \sqrt{26}\units$

Formula

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)

Here

$Length = 2\sqrt{26}\ units$

$Breadth = \sqrt{26}\ units$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(2\sqrt{26} +\sqrt{26})$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(3\sqrt{26})$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 6\sqrt{26}$

$\sqrt{26} = 5.1 (Approx)$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 6\times 5.1$

Perimeter of a rectangle = 30.6 units.

Therefore the perimeter of a rectangle is 30.6 units.
