Answer:

48 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this

You can easily solve this by using a rule of three.

Step 1

define

the top section has a volume of 3/8 of the entire refrigerator.

if the entire refrigerator has a volume of 1, the bottom section has a volume of

Volume of bottom section=1-(3/8)

Volume of bottom section=5/8

Step 2

to find the entire volume use the rule of three

if

(5/8) of the entire volume ⇔30 cubic feet

(1) entire volume                 ⇔x cubic feet

\frac{5/8}{30\ cubic\ feet}=\frac{1}{x} \\\\\\ isolating\ x\\\\x=\frac{30\ cubic\ feet}{5/8} \\x=48 cubic feet\\  

the entire volume is 48 cubic feet.

Have a great day.

What percentage of children chose peanut butter 70% 25% 30% or 45%
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

30 % of children chose peanut butter

Step-by-step explanation:

To work out what percentage of children chose peanut butter, we have to find the total number of children and how many children liked peanut butter. The total number of children is 20 and the number of children who choose peanut butter is 6. To work the percentage we do

→ How many children liked peanut butter ÷ Total number of children × 100

→ 6 ÷ 20 × 100

→ 0.3 × 100

→ 30 % of children chose peanut butter

Is 92 1/2 pounds equivalent to 1,480 ounces
kow [346]
Hi there!

Since

16 ounces = 1 pound,

We should divide 1480 by 16 and see if it equals 92.5.

1480 ÷ 16 = 92.5
92.5 = 92.5

Answer:
Yes.

Hope this helps!

The coordinates of points M,N, and P are ....
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

(-1, -1) Let me know if the explanation didn't make sense.  

Step-by-step explanation:

If we graph the three points we can see what looks like a quadrilateral's upper right portion, so we need a point in the lower left.  This means M is only connected to N here and P is only connected to N.  So we want to find the slope of these two lines.

MN is easy since their y values are the same, the slope is 0.

NP we just use the slope formula so (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (-1-3)/(5-4) = -4.

So now we want a line from point M with a slope of -4 to intersect with a line from point P with a slope of 0.  To find these lines  weuse point slope form  for those two points.  The formula for point slope form is y - y1 = m(x-x1)

y-3 = -4(x+2) -> y = -4x-5

y+1 = 0(x-5) -> y = -1

So now we want these two to intersect.  We just set them equal to each other.

-1 = -4x -5 -> -1 = x

So this gives us our x value.  Now we can plug that into either function to find the y value.  This is super easy of we use y = -1 because all y values in this are -1, so the point Q is (-1, -1)

A Unites States naval submarine began at sea level. It submerged 140 ft and then traveled 40 miles. It dove down an additional 1
kodGreya [7K]

Answer: -231 ft

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The submarine started at sea level = 0

It submerged 140 ft = -140 ft

It traveled 40 miles horizontally so it is still at -140 ft

It dove down an additional 120 ft = -260 ft <em>(-140 + -120)</em>

It traveled 25 miles horizontally so it is still at -260 ft

It rose 29 ft = -231 ft <em>(-260 + 29)</em>

Note: submerged and dove are negative values and rose is positive

0 - 140 - 120 + 29 = -231
