Answer:the percentage decrease is 36.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial amount of sugar in his diet is 15 spoons in a day. Currently, the amount of sugar in his diet is 9 1/2 spoons in a day. Converting to decimal, it becomes 9.5 spoon in a day. The amount by which he reduced his sugar intake is 15 - 9.5 = 5.5 spoons.

Percentage decrease would be expressed as

Amount by which the intake decreased/ initial intake × 100

It becomes

5.5/15 × 100 = 36.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for mid-point is;

midpoint=((x_1+x_2)/2,(y_1+y_2)/2)

1.Given S(-3,4), U(-3,0) and T(5,0) then finding the mid-points

SU = [(-3+-3)/2,(4+0)/2] =(-3,2)

TU= [(-3+5)/2,(0+0)/2] =(1,0)

ST=[(-3+5)/2,(4+0)/2]=(1,2)

2.Mid-point formula for this case given W(-5,1) and Z(3,3) will be;

Midpoint = [ (x₁+x₂)/2,(y₁+y₂)/2]

Midpoint= [(-5+3)/2 ,(1+3)/2]

Midpoint=(1,2)

3. Finding the length of segments and the midpoint of the segments

Formula for length of segment, d, is given as;

For C(-1,5) and D(5,1)

d=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{(1-5)^2+(5--1)^2} =\sqrt{-4^2+6^2} =\sqrt{16+36} =\sqrt{52} =7.21

Midpoint of the segment CD will be

[(-1+5)/2,(5+1)/2] = (2,3)

For E (-3,-6) and F(5,0)

d=\sqrt{(0--6)^2+(5--3)^2} =\sqrt{6^2+8^2} =\sqrt{36+64} =\sqrt{100} =10

The midpoint for segment EF will be;

[(-3+5)/2 ,(-6+0)/2] =(1,-3)

For L(-4,4) and M(-1,-5)

d=\sqrt{(-5--4)^2+(-1-4)^2} \\d=\sqrt{-1^2+-5^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{1+25}=\sqrt{26} =5.1

An anemometer is a device used to measure wind speed.
mariarad [96]

Answer:

3.32ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The wire and the poles attached to the ground form a right triangle with the length of the wire being the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras Theorem:

Hypotenuse²=Adjacent²+Opposite²

6²=5²+x²

x²=36-25

x²=11

x=√11=3.32 ft.

The wires are attached 3.32 ft from the base of the pole on the ground

A snack bar sells two sizes of drinks. A large drink is $5 and a small drink is $3. In one day, they sold 60 drinks for a total
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of L = $5

Cost of S = $3

No. of drinks sold = 60 drinks

Total sale = $220

Solution:

L + S = 60 - (1) (multiplying by 3)

5L + 3S = 220 - (2)

(-)3L +(-) 3S = (-)180 - (1)

2L = 40

L = 40 / 2

L = 20 Large drinks

20 + S = 60

S = 60 - 20

S = 40 small drinks

Therefore, 20 large drinks and 40 small drinks
