Answer:

Mr. Sims would need 17 and a half (17.5) cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Sims is mixing cement to secure a mailbox post.

The requirement of  water for each pound of cement = 5 cups

Mr. Sims is mixing cement = 3.5 pounds

Here we use unitary method

In 1 pound required water = 5 cups

in 3.5 pounds required water = 5 × 3.5 = 17.5 cups

Mr. Sims would need 17 and a half (17.5) cups of water .

A circle passes through points A(7,4), B(10,6), C(12,3). Show that AC must be the diameter of the circle.
Artist 52 [7]

so we have three points, A, B and C, if indeed AC is the diameter of the circle, then half the distance of AC is its radius, and the midpoint of AC is the center of the circle, morever, since B is also on the circle, the distance from B to the center must be the same radius distance.

in short, half the distance of AC must be equals to the distance of B to the midpoint of AC, if indeed AC is the diameter.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{7}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad C(\stackrel{x_2}{12}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{12+7}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{3+4}{2} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{19}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{7}{2} \right)=M\impliedby \textit{center of the circle}

now, let's check the distance from say A to the center, and check the distance of B to the center, if it's indeed the center, they'll be the same and thus AC its diameter.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{7}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad M(\stackrel{x_2}{\frac{19}{2}}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{\frac{7}{2}})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ AM=\sqrt{\left( \frac{19}{2}-7 \right)^2+\left( \frac{7}{2}-4 \right)^2} \\\\\\ AM=\sqrt{\left( \frac{5}{2}\right)^2+\left( -\frac{1}{2} \right)^2}\implies \boxed{AM\approx 2.549509756796392} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ B(\stackrel{x_1}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad M(\stackrel{x_2}{\frac{19}{2}}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{\frac{7}{2}}) \\\\\\ BM=\sqrt{\left( \frac{19}{2}-10 \right)^2+\left( \frac{7}{2}-6 \right)^2} \\\\\\ BM=\sqrt{\left( -\frac{1}{2}\right)^2+\left( -\frac{5}{2} \right)^2}\implies \boxed{BM\approx 2.549509756796392}

if 368 teenagers in a population of 4,310 report that they have smoked at least one cigarette during the past year, to one decim
allochka39001 [22]
Divide the amount of teenagers that smoked by the total population:

368 \div 4310 = 0.0853

Multiply this decimal by 100 to convert into a percentage:

0.0853 \times 100 = 8.53

To round to the nearest decimal place, look at the hundredths value:

8.53
3 > 5
8.53 -> 8.5

8.5% of teenagers reported that they smoked at least one cigarette.
