Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I believe the you just multiply 271,000 student by 52% the result is that 140,920 which is more than half of the 271,000 that should be 135,300. I hope it helps.

Answer:

As the number of students believe that abortion should be legal 140920 is greater than half students of college first year.

140920 > 135500

This shows that t over half of all first year students believe that abortion should be legal .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ value}

As given

An annual survey of first year college students asks 271,000 students about their attitudes on a variety of subjects.

According to a recent survey, 52% of first year students believe that abortion should be legal.

Let us assume that according to the survey number of students believe that abortion should be legal be x.

Here

Percentage = 52%

Total value = 271,000

Part value = x

Put in the formula

52 = \frac{x\times 100}{271000}

x = \frac{271000\times 52}{100}

x = 2710\times 52

x = 140920

Thus according to the survey number of students believe that abortion should be legal 140920 .

Now find out the half students of first year .

Half\ students\ of\ college\ first\ year = \frac{271000}{2}

Half\ students\ of\ college\ first\ year = 135500

As according to survey  the number of students believe that abortion should be legal 140920 is greater than half students of college first year.

i.e

140920 > 135500

Thus this shows that t over half of all first year students believe that abortion should be legal .

1. You have that:
 
 - Each gallon of paint covers 400 ft²<span>.
 - One side of a wall must be painted and its dimensions are :is 8 meters tall and 40 meters long.
 
 1 ft=0.3048 m
 1 ft</span>²=(0.3048 m)²=0.09290 m²
 
 2. Each gallon of paint covers 400 ft<span>², then:
</span> 
 400 ft²x<span>0.09290=37.16 m</span>²
 
 3. The area of one side of the wall is:
 
 A=8 mx40 m
 A=320 m²
 
 4. Therefore, you have:
 
 1 gallon-----37.16 m²
             x-----320 m²
 
 x=320x1/37.16
 x=8.61 gallons
 x≈9 gallons
 
 The answer is: 9 gallons

Answer:

1) 109 cm

2) 120 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides the same length and four (4) right angles. The diagonal, together with two adjacent sides, forms a right triangle. The relationship between side lengths and the diagonal length is given by the Pythagorean theorem. If sides are "a" and "b" and the diagonal is "c", that theorem tells you ...

... c² = a² + b²

1) c² = (60 cm)² + (91 cm)² = 11881 cm²

... c = √11881 cm = 109 cm

2) The perimeter is double the sum of adjacent side lengths, so ...

... 2(a+b) = 46 in

... a + b = 23 in . . . . . divide by 2

The Pythagorean theorem tells you

... a² + b² = (17 in)²

Squaring the equation from the perimeter relation gives ...

... (a + b)² = (23 in)² = a² + 2ab + b²

Subtracting a² + b², we have

... (a² +2ab +b²) - (a² + b²) = (23 in)² -(17 in)²

... 2ab = (529 -289) in² = 240 in² . . . . . simplify

... 240 in²/2 = ab = 120 in² . . . . . area is the product of length and width

_____

We could solve the two equations for a and b to find that there are two possible solutions: (a, b) = (8, 15) or (15, 8). Either way, ab = 8·15 = 120.

Frank is constructing the circumscribed circle for △XYZ. He has already used his compass and straightedge to complete the part o
Tom [10]
Circumscribed circle for a triangle is circle where the circumference would cut all the vertices in the triangle 
the diagram already has arcs marked from point Y, with the aim of drawing a perpendicular bisector to line XY.

Therefore the next step is to place the compass on point X and draw two arcs which cross the arcs already drawn (second option is the correct answer)

The points at which the 2 arcs meet are connected to each other making a perpendicular bisector that would cut XY perpendicularly.

Next step is to place the compass at Z and draw 2 arcs between Z and Y points, similarly place the compass at Y and draw 2 arcs that would cut the arcs already drawn. 

Then connect the two points where the arcs meet and thats the perpendicular bisector of ZY.
The point at which perpendicular bisectors of XY and YZ meet is known as the circumcenter. Place the compass on this point with the radius any of the three points X,Y or Z and draw the circle
