You need to make a series of equations from what you are given first. I am going to use the first letter of each of the names to represent the length of that persons wire.
1/2s=2/5d
3c=s
s+d+c=6 ft

Okay. Now you can combine the first two equations knowing what s equals:
1/2(3c)=2/5d
d=15c/4

Now you have d=15c/4 and s=3c, so you can replace d and s in the third equation.

3c+15c/4+c=6

Then solve for c and plug it into the equation 3c=s to find the length of sarah's wire.

6 hours Zoey can expect from the tablet on a full battery charge if the battery dropped by 33%, from 100% to 67%.

<h3>What is percentage?</h3>

It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.

We have:

Zoey wants to use her computer tablet throughout a 6-hour flight. Upon takeoff, she uses the tablet for 2 hours and notices that the battery dropped by 33%, from 100% to 67%.

Let's suppose x hours Zoey can expect from the tablet on a full battery charge.

The value of x can be calculated using:

x = (2×100)/33

x = 200/33

x = 6.06 ≈ 6 hours

Thus, 6 hours Zoey can expect from the tablet on a full battery charge if the battery dropped by 33%, from 100% to 67%.

Which of the following sets of points are vertices of a right triangle?
grandymaker [24]

  • Please find the picture for your triangle.
  • We know, area of a ∆ = <u>1/2 × base × height</u>
  • Here, base = ( 1 + 7 ) units = <u>8 units</u>
  • Height = ( 7 - 1 ) units = <u>6 units</u>
  • Therefore, area of the ∆
  • = <u>(1/2 × 8 × 6) square units</u>
  • = <u>24 square units.</u>

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<em><u>2</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>square </u></em><em><u>units</u></em>

Hope you can get an idea from it.

Carry on learning.
