Answer:

= -3/20 = -7 3/4 = -12 27/50

Step-by-step explanation:

For -3/20, we know that .1 is a tenth, so half of that, 0.05, must be a twentieth. -0.15 = -3 x 0.5, so it's -3/20.

For the second problem, we'll set the -7 aside for the mixed number. 0.25 is a quarter, and there's three of them (0.25 x 3 = 0.75), so it's 7 3/4

For the third problem, we again set the -12 aside for the mixed number. 0.54 is 54 one-hundreths, which is 54/100. we can reduce that by dividing both the numerator and denominator of the fraction by 2, and we get 27/50. Because 27 is prime, it cannot be reduced any further, the answer is -12 27/50.

-0.15 = -15/100 = -3/20

-7.75 = -7 3/4

-12.54 = -12 54/100 = -12 27/50

Dennis_Churaev [7]

We are given with an initial deposit of $20,000 and a future worth of <span>$35,000. In this case, we are asked for the return of income (ROI) of the investment. in this case, we assume the number of years equal to 1. hence,

</span>$35,000 = <span>$20,000* (1+i) ^1

The surface area of a given cone is 1,885.7143 square inches. What is the slang height?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

If $r >> h$ , the slang height of the cone is approximately 23.521 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cone (A) is given by this formula:

$A = \pi \cdot r^{2} + 2\pi\cdot s$

Where:

$r$ - Base radius of the cone, measured in inches.

$s$ - Slant height, measured in inches.

In addition, the slant height is calculated by means of the Pythagorean Theorem:

$s = \sqrt{r^{2}+h^{2}}$

Where $h$ is the altitude of the cone, measured in inches. If $r >> h$ , then:

$s \approx r$

And:

$A = \pi\cdot r^{2} +2\pi\cdot r$

Given that $A = 1885.7143\,in^{2}$ , the following second-order polynomial is obtained:

$\pi \cdot r^{2} + 2\pi \cdot r -1885.7143\,in^{2} = 0$

Roots can be found by the Quadratic Formula:

$r_{1,2} = \frac{-2\pi \pm \sqrt{4\pi^{2}-4\pi\cdot (-1885.7143)}}{2\pi}$

$r_{1,2} \approx -1\,in \pm 24.521\,in$

$r_{1} \approx 23.521\,in \,\wedge\,r_{2}\approx -25.521\,in$

As radius is a positive unit, the first root is the only solution that is physically reasonable. Hence, the slang height of the cone is approximately 23.521 inches.

What is m∠PTR? a. 12 b. 40 c. 50 d. 140 HELP!!!

kramer

Answer:

m<PTR = 140°

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the value of x. To find the value of x, derive an equation which you'd use in solving for x.

m<PTQ = (x + 28)°

m<RTS = (2x + 16)°

m<PTQ = m<RTS (vertical opposite angles are congruent)

Therefore:

x + 28 = 2x + 16

Solve for x. Combine like terms

28 - 16 = 2x - x

12 = x

x = 12

Find m<PTQ

m<PTQ = (x + 28)

plug in the value of x

m<PTQ = 12 + 28 = 40°

m<PTR + m<PTQ = 180° (supplementary angles)

m<PTR + 40° = 180° (substitution)

m<PTR = 180 - 40 (subtracting 40 from each side)

m<PTR = 140°

Chan wants to buy a used car that costs $8,500. He took out a loan for the cost of the car, and his payments are $209 per month

Leto [7]

Multiply 209 by 12 to find one year which is 2508
Multiply 2508 by 4 to find 4 years which is 10032
Subtract 8500 from 10032 which is 1532
So he paid 1532 more than the cars original price
I hope thats understandable!
