Hello!

To calculate how many votes Mrs. Jones had received, you would begin by converting 70% into a decimal, and then multiplying that decimal by the total number of votes.

Remember, all percentages are out of 100. So, 70/100 can be simplified into 7/10. As a decimal, 7/10 would be 0.7.

Next, we multiply 0.7 by the total number of votes, which is 1,500.

0.7 · 1500 = 1050

Therefore, in this election, Mrs. Jones received 1,050 votes out of the total 1,500 votes casted.

each truck in the line weigh two tons more than the truck before it. the trucks weigh a total of 32 tons.how many pounds does a
mixer [17]
If there are 4 trucks then the first truck weighs x
then x+2tons
then x+4tons
then x+6tons = 32tons
so 4x+12=32
         -12   -12
     /4         /4
x=5 
so plug it back in 
truck 1= 5tons or 10,000lbs
truck 2= 7tons or 14,000lbs
truck 3= 9tons or 18,000lbs
<span>truck 4= 11tons or 22,000lbs</span>

Convert 110 km/myr (kilometers per million years) to cm/yr (centimeters per year)
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

110\ \text{km/myr} =11\ \text{cm/yr}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Convert 110 km/myr (kilometers per million years) to cm/yr (centimeters per year) ?

Solution :

Using metric conversions,

1 kilometer = 1000 meter

1 meter = 100 centimeter

So, 1 kilometer = 100,000 centimeter

and 1 million year = 1,000,000 year

1\ \text{km/myr} =\frac{100000}{1000000}\ \text{cm/yr}

1\ \text{km/myr} =0.1\ \text{cm/yr}

So, 110\ \text{km/myr} =110\times 0.1\ \text{cm/yr}

110\ \text{km/myr} =11\ \text{cm/yr}

Therefore, 110\ \text{km/myr} =11\ \text{cm/yr}

Team{Number of Students}

Acers{78}

Blazers{80}

Outbacks{83}

Quasars{77}

<u>Total-400</u>

Answer:

The probability that the Principal selects a voyager on the first try is:

82/400

Since another student is to be selected, the <u>total population has reduced by 1 </u>and the <u>number of voyagers likewise has been reduced by 1.</u>

Therefore:

Probability that another voyager is selected on the second try =

81/399

<u>The correct option is A.</u>
