Answer:

  110

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12% studied Spanish, then 88% did not. The ratio of those who did not to those who did is ...

  88 : 12 = 22 : 3

Then the number of students who did not study Spanish is ...

joey made a deposit into an account that earns 6% simple interest.After three years, joey had earned $400. How much was joey's i
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount deposited, we will simply use the formula for calculating simple interest.

Simple Interest = pxrxt/100     (fraction)

Where p = principal

      R= Rate

           T= Time

Principal is the initial amount deposited which we are ask to find.

R is given to be 6%  and T is the time which is given in years

Simple interest is the interest earned over the year which is given to be $400

Lets substitute our variable into the equation

Simple Interest = pxrxt/100    (fraction)

$400  = P × 6 × 3   /     100

$400 = 18p/100    (fraction)

We will then cross multiply

$40 000  =   18 P

To get  the value of P, we divide both-side of the equation by 18

4000/18 = 18p/18     (fractions)

$2222.22 =  P

P = $2222.22

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer: 729

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{3^{-2} * 3^{-4} * (-1)^{2}  }

3^-2 = 1/9

3^-4 = 1/81

(-1)^2 = 1

1/(1/9 * 1/81 * 1)

1/ 1/729 = 729

In your BIO 111 course, you learn that human hair can vary in diameter, but one estimate of the average diameter is 50 microns o
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

5000 particles of size 10 nanometer should be stacked

Step-by-step explanation:

Average diameter of the of the human hair = 50 micron = 50 × 10⁻⁶ m

Now,

let the number of 10 nanometer i.e 10 × 10⁻⁹ m particle be 'n'

thus,

n × 10 × 10⁻⁹ m = 50 × 10⁻⁶ m

Therefore to find the number of 10 nanometer i.e 10 × 10⁻⁹ m particle,

n = \frac{50\times10^{-6}}{10\times10^{-9}}

or

n = 5000

Hence,

5000 particles of size 10 nanometer should be stacked
