Answer:

1\frac{2}{3}\ kg

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out how much the guests ate, multiply the total amount of kg of mashed potatoes by the 4/12 fraction

so

5(\frac{4}{12})=\frac{20}{12}\ kg

convert to mixed number

\frac{20}{12}=\frac{12}{12}+\frac{8}{12}=1\frac{8}{12}\ kg

simplify

1\frac{8}{12}=1\frac{2}{3}\ kg

Need Help Badly<br>What is the solution
Kamila [148]
Sqrt(1-3x)=x+3
[sqrt(1-3x)]^2=(x+3)^2
1-3x=(x+3)(x+3)
1-3x=x^2+6x+9
-3x=x^2+6x+8
0=x^2+9x+8

The answers are -1 and -8 BUT, we have to plug them back into the original equation to make sure we don't get a negative under the square root sign.

After doing this, we realize that only -1 works, so the answer is x=-1

Sorry that this took forever to answer. I was thinking of a good way to explain this, and if you need any further explanation, message me:)

Best wishes:)

A vase has the shape of a rectangular prism. The inside of the vase is also a rectangular prism. What is the volume of the solid
saw5 [17]

Answer:

V_{s} = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{out}^{2} \cdot h -\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (D_{out}-2\cdot t)^{2}\cdot (h-t)

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric description of the vase is described in the image attached below. The volume of the solid part of the vase is:

V_{s} = V_{out} - V_{in}

V_{s} = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{out}^{2} \cdot h -\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (D_{out}-2\cdot t)^{2}\cdot (h-t)

Where:

D_{out} - Outer diameter, in centimeters.

t - Vase thickness, in centimeters.

Some students were asked what kinds of animals they have at home.
Nataly_w [17]

(a) Animals by popularity; Dogs, Cats, Others, Horses.

(b) If 250 students were interviewed, 20 students have other pets.

(c) No, it was incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; We arrange the different pets in chronological order, from the highest percent to the lowest percent;

1. Dogs - 67%,

2. Cats - 20%

3. Others - 8%,

4. Horses - 1%.

None is not included in this list.

Step 2; If 250 students were interviewed, 8% of those have other pets. So we need to calculate how much 8% of 250 is.

8% of 250 = \frac{8}{100} × 250 = 0.08 × 250 = 20.

So 20 students had other pets.

Step 3; 20% of the interviewed students had cats. If 75 students had cats, we need to equate 20% to the 75 and find out how many students were actually interviewed.

20% × x = 75, 0.2 × x = 75,

x = \frac{75}{0.2} = 375.

So if 375 students were interviewed, 75 students would have cats. So the estimate of 250 students being interviewed is incorrect.
