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.

How do i find x and y?​
Stells [14]

Answer:

x=90

y=67

Step-by-step explanation:

as the line that bisects the vertical angle of isosceles triangle perpendicularly bisects the base

so x=90

and sum of all sides of triangle is 180 so

90+23+y=180

therefore,y=67

Fruit Company A recently released a new applesauce. By the end of its first year, profits on this product amounted to $37,100. T
Anastasy [175]

Answer: 11 year

P(1) = 37,100

P(4) = 58,400

The linear equation (for x ≥ 1)

P(x) = 37,100 + a(x-1)

For x = 4

58,400 = 37,100 + a(4-1)

58,400 - 37,100 = 3a

21300 = 3a

a = 7100

So, the linear equation:

P(x) = 37100 + 7100*(x-1)

P(x) = 37100 + 7100x - 7,100

P(x) = 7100x + 30000

To find when the profit should reach 108100, we can substitute P(x) by 108100.

108100 = 7100x + 30000

108100 - 30000 = 7100x

78100 = 7100x

x = 78100/7100

x = 11

Both lines pass through the point (-3,-4). one has a slope of 4 and the other has a slope of -1/4
Alchen [17]
If the question is to find the slope-intercept form of both lines, here's the answer:
Both lines pass through the point (-3,-4), so we can use these coordinates in both equations. The slope-intercept form is represented by y=mx+b, with m the slope, b the intersection of the line with Y'Y for x=0, y and x the coordinates of a point.
Let's first apply all these for the first line, with a slope of 4.
y = mx + b
y=-3; x=-4; m=4. All we need to do is find b.
-3 = 4(-4) + b
-3 = -16 + b
b=13
So the equation of the first line is y= 4x + 13.

Now, we'll do the same thing but for the second line:
y=-3; x=-4; m=-1/4, and we need to find b.
-3 = (-1/4)(-4) + b
-3 = 1 + b
b= -4
So the equation of the second line is y=(-1/4)x - 4

Hope this Helps! :)

At time t=3, there are 2.5 cubic feet of water in the tub. Write an equation for the locally linear approximation of W at t=3, a
velikii [3]

Answer:

W=0.8333*t

2.917 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

At time t=3, there is 2.5 ft³ of water in the tub

Finding the relation will be;

3=2.5

1=?

Rate=0.8333 ft³/min

W=0.8333 ft³ / min

W=0.8333*t

At t=3.5 will be;

1 min = 0.8333

3.5 min =?

Apply cross-production

3.5*0.8333 =2.917 ft³

Estimate √97.5 / 1.96
evablogger [386]

Answer: 5


Step-by-step explanation:

 1. You have the following expression given in the problem above:

\frac{\sqrt{97.5}}{1.96}

2. You can estimate the result by rounding the numerator and the denominator.

3. As you can see, you can round up 97.5 to 100.

4. Then, you can round up 1.96 to 2.

5. Therefore, you have:

\frac{\sqrt{100}}{2}

\frac{10}{2}=5

6. Therefore, the result is 5.
