If 60% is shopping, then 40% is not shopping (100% - 60%=40%). You can use a <span>cross-multiplication, or the rule of three for the equivalences, I mean:
2500/40% = x/60% so you solve for x and get x = 60%*2500/40% = 3750 people who shopped that day.</span>

If i live in Miami and my cousin in Los Angeles at what time can we talk? and why?
miss Akunina [59]
Ok well right now in California its 5:34 and its probably 8:34 in Miami. Because the sun is not in the same elevation. Depending on longitude and position there is a time difference that was calculated by a system. Based on simple mathematics and subtraction you can conclude that the time difference between Miami and California is 3 hours<span />

You’re given two side lengths of 3 centimeters and 5 centimeters. Which measurement can you use for the length of the third side
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

You could use a measurement of 4 centimeters.

The valid range is  2  < x < 8  cms.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side must either be less than 3+5, that is less than 8 cms and  it must be greater than (5-3) = 2 cms. If it is any other length we could not construct a triangle.

If line t is a transversal of lines l and m, name the angle relationship of the given angle pairs.
Ghella [55]

Answer:

\angle 1\ and\ \angle 3 are corresponding angles and are congruent to each other.

\angle 8\ and\ \angle 4 are alternate exterior angles and thus congruent to each other.

\angle 2\ and\ \angle 3 are interior angles on the same side, and they are supplementary(sum=180°).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Line l\parallel m

Line t is traversal.

By angle properties we can name the angle relationship of given angle pairs.

\angle 1\ and\ \angle 3 are corresponding angles and are congruent to each other.

\angle 8\ and\ \angle 4 are alternate exterior angles and thus congruent to each other.

\angle 2\ and\ \angle 3 are interior angles on the same side, and thus they are supplementary.

A sequence is defined by the function f ( n ) = f ( n − 1 ) + 5 , where n represents the number of the term for n &gt; 1 , and f
Shkiper50 [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

if f(1)=-4, then adding 5 would give you 1, again would give you 6, again would give 11. Therefore, your first four terms are -4,1,6,11.
