Answer:

The total number of students who have applied for the admissions in the school last year = 20000  

Step-by-step explanation:

The school you want to go to has an acceptance rate of 12%.

⇒ 12% of the students who apply to the school get in

Now, Total number of students that are being selected = 2400

We need to find the total number of students those who have applied for the admission

Let the number of students who have applied for the admission be x

Now, using the condition given in the problem, we have :

12% of x = 2400

⇒ 0.12 × x = 240

⇒ x = 20000

Thus, The total number of students who have applied for the admissions in the school last year = 20000

The answer is 20,000.

2,400 Divided by .12 equals 20,000.

2,400 / .12 = 20,000.

ALGEBRAIC PROOF!!!! PLS HELP!!! The area of a rectangular blanket is 20 square feet. The blanket's length is (2x + 1) ft and the
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

A = LW     formula for area of rectangle

(2x + 1)(2x) = 20      substitute length, width, and area into formula

4x² + 2x - 20 = 0      use the distributive property to multiply out left side

2x² + x - 10 = 0         divide both sides of equation by 2

(2x + 5)(x - 2) = 0        factor out trinomial

2x + 5 = 0  or  x - 2 = 0        use zero product rule to solve for x

2x = -5  or x = 2       subtract 5 from both sides; add 2 to both sides

x = -5/2  or  x = 2

We discard x = -5/2 since it would give negative length and width, and the length and width cannot be negative.

Length: 2x + 1 = 2(2) + 1 = 5

Width: 2x = 2(2) = 4

Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.

6. All angles in the figure below are right angles. What is the area of the figure? (4 point)
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Area the figure = 45 - 9 = 36 units² ⇒ last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>"I have added screenshot of the complete question as well as the diagram"</em>

All the angles of the figure are right angles

<u>From the attached figure:</u> <em>we can find the area of the figure by subtracting the area of the cutting part from the area of the rectangle of dimensions 9 units and 5 units</em>

∵ All the angles of the figure are right angles

∴ We can consider that the figure of dimensions 9 units and 5 units

  as a rectangle

∵ Area of any rectangle A = L × H , where L, H are the dimensions

  of the rectangle

∵ L = 9 units and H = 5 units

∴ Area of the rectangle = 9 × 5 = 45 units²

- The dimensions of the cutting part are 3 units and

  [9 - (2 + 4) = 9 - 6 = 3 units]

∴ The cutting part is a square

∵ Area any square = S², where S is the length of the side of the square

∵ S = 3 units

∴ The area of the cutting part = 3² = 9 units²

∵ Area of the figure = area rectangle - area square

∵ Area the rectangle = 45 units²

∴ Area the square = 9 unit²

∴ Area the figure = 45 - 9 = 36 units²

A cake decorator rolls a piece of stiff paper to form a cone. She cuts off the tip of the cone and uses it as a funnel to pour d
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for volume of a cone

V = 1/3 pi r^2 (h)

V = 1/3 pi 66^2 (18)

V= 1/3 pi 4356(18)

V = 1/3 pi 78408

V = 1/3 264,201.12

V = 82,067.04cm^3
