Answer:

3.5 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the pounds for the male by the amount of tons it is.

8000/4 = 2000

This is how many pounds are in one ton.  Divide the weight of the female by this.

7000/2000 = 3.5

The female weighs 3.5 tons.

The length of one side of a square is (x + 2 1/4). If the perimeter is 14 units, what is the area?
Stels [109]

The perimeter is the total of adding all of the side lengths together.

A square has 4 equal side lengths.

So the perimeter of a square is:

P = s + s + s + s  or  P = 4s

[P = perimeter       s = side lengths of the square]


Since you know the side length of the square is (x + 2 1/4), you can replace s with (x + 2 1/4)

P = 4s

P = 4(x + 2 1/4)  Multiply 4 into (x + 2 1/4)

P = 4x + 8 4/4

P = 4x + 9

Since you know the perimeter, you can plug it in.(you could have also plugged it in in the beginning)

P = 4x + 9

14 = 4x + 9  Subtract 9 on both sides

5 = 4x  Divide 4 on both sides

5/4 = x


Now that you know x, find the side length of the square.

(x + 2 1/4)

(5/4 + 2 1/4)

2 6/4 = 3 2/4 = 3 1/2 units or 3.5 units


To find the area of a square, you multiply 2 of the sides together:

A = s · s  

A = 3.5 · 3.5

A = 12.25 units²

Forty- two people attended s meeting about a zoning ordinance. Six more of the attendees voted in favor of the ordinance than th
kumpel [21]
Let the attendees in opposition be x. This means that the attendees in favour are x+6.
That means x+x+6=42, which is 2x+6=42, so 2x=36 and x=18. Therefore, there are 18 attendees who opposed it.

Sam has three identical tennis balls with a diameter of 2.7 inches. Determine the volume of all three tennis balls?
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

They are 30.93 in³ altogether.

Step-by-step explanation: V = 4/3 π r³

r = 2.7/2 = 1.35

π x 1.35 x 1.35 x 4/3 = 10.31 in³

10.31 x 3 = 30.93

The average rate of change of g(x) between x = 4 and x = 7 is 5/6 . Which statement must be true?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

\frac{5}{6}=\:\frac{g\left(7\right)-g\left(4\right)}{7-4}  would be the correct statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that

Average rate of change = Change in output / Change in input    

                                        =  Δy  / Δx

                                        =\frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}

                                        =\frac{g(x_{2})-g(x_{1})}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

                                         =\frac{g(7)-g(4)}{7-4}                    

As the average rate of change of g(x) between x = 4 and x = 7 is 5/6.

so

\:Average\:rate\:of\:change\:=\:\frac{g\left(7\right)-g\left(4\right)}{7-4}

                                  \frac{5}{6}=\:\frac{g\left(7\right)-g\left(4\right)}{7-4}

Therefore, \frac{5}{6}=\:\frac{g\left(7\right)-g\left(4\right)}{7-4}  would be the correct statement.
