Lynn has a box of crayons.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

<em>There are 72 crayons in the box</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Fractions</u>

To solve this problem we'll manage numbers as fractions to keep the precision up to the end of it.

Lynn has a box of crayons. It's given 4/9 of the crayons are blue. The remaining crayons are:

$1-\frac{4}{9}=\frac{5}{9}$

From that portion, 65% are red, or equivalently, 35% are yellow.

We write 35% as a fraction:

$\displaystyle 35\%=\frac{35}{100}=\frac{7}{20}$

Thus, the portion of yellow crayons is:

$\displaystyle \frac{7}{20}\cdot \frac{5}{9}=\frac{7}{36}$

This fraction of x crayons is equal to 14, thus:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{14}{\frac{7}{36}}=14\cdot\frac{36}{7}$

x = 72

There are 72 crayons in the box

What is the ratio for sine

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Blank 1: opposite

Blank 2: adjacent

Blank 3: opposite

Blank 4: adjacent

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a trigonometric acronym for this which is:

Soh Cah Toa

Soh means that sine is opposite over hypotenuse.

Cah means that cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse.

Toa means that tangent is opposite over adjacent.

Let me actually write these out as fractions:

sine is $\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

cosine is $\frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

tangent is $\frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}$

Blank 1: opposite

Blank 2: adjacent

Blank 3: opposite

Blank 4: adjacent

Every day, Jason runs for 36 minutes and lifts weights for 44 minutes. How many minutes will Jason spend working out in 8 days?

Lisa [10]

36 x 8 = 288
44 x 8 = 352
288 + 352 = 640
So 640 minutes in 8 days.

Answer:

XQ = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question it asks for XQ instead of x, but you need to find x first.

1. Find x.

XQ is half of MQ so this statement is true: 3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)

Solve for x.

3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)

Distribute 2.

3x - 3 = 4x - 12

Isolate x.

3x = 4x - 9

-x = -9

Divide -1 out.

x = 9

Now solve for XQ, which the equation is given.

XQ = 2(9) - 6

XQ = 18 - 6

XQ = 12
