Answer:

24 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If 60% equals 72, then 20% would be 1/3 of 72 which is 24.

Answer:

24 students selected milk

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of students,

Since, 60% of students selected soda,

⇒ Number of students who selected soda = 60% of x = 0.6x

According to the question,

0.6x = 72

Divide both sides by 0.6,

⇒ x = 120

Now, 20% students selected milk

Hence, the number of student who selected milk = 20% of 120 = 0.20 × 120 = 24

Graham and Hunter are circus performers. A cable lifts Graham into the air at a constant speed of 1.5 ft/s. When Graham’s arms a
lidiya [134]

Answer: Hello there!

this type of equations in one dimension (when all the factors are constants) are written as:

h =  initial position +  initial velocity*t + (acceleration/2)*t^2

First, let's describe the hunter's equation:

We know that Graham moves with a velocity of 1.5 ft/s, and when he is  18 ft above the ground, Hunter throws the ball, and because Graham is pulled with a cable, he is not affected by gravity.

If we define t= 0 when Graham is 18 ft above the ground, the equation for Graham height (in feet) is:

h = 18 + 1.5t

where t in seconds.

Now, the equation for the ball:

We know that at t= 0, the ball is thrown from an initial distance of 5ft, with an initial velocity of 24ft/s and is affected by gravity acceleration g, where g is equal to: 32.2 ft/s (notice that the gravity pulls the ball downwards, so it will have a negative sign)

the equation for the ball is:

h = 5 + 24t - (32.2/2)t^2 = 5 + 24t - 16.1t^2

So the system is:

h = 18 + 1.5t

h = 5 +24t - 16.1t^2

so the right answer is A

The length of a rectangle is "a" inches and the width is 3 inches more than its length. find the perimeter and the area
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Length = a

Width = a + 3

Formulas

P = 2L + 2w

Area = L * w

Solution

Perimeter

P = 2L +  2w

P = 2*a + 2(a + 3)             Remove the Brackets

p = 2a + 2a + 6                Combine

<u><em>P = 4a + 6</em></u>

Area

Area = L * w

Area = a (a + 3)

<u><em>Area = a^2 + 3a</em></u>
