Daniel [21]

Using the percentage concept, supposing 520 out of 1000 respondents believe in global warming, 52% of respondents agreed that global warming is occurring.

<h3>What is a percentage?</h3>

The percentage of an amount a over a total amount b is given by a multiplied by 100% and divided by b, that is:

P = \frac{a}{b} \times 100\%

In this problem, we suppose that 520 out of 1000 respondents believe in global warming, hence a = 520, b = 1000, and the percentage is of:

P = \frac{520}{1000} \times 100\% = 52\%

Sally is making bouquets of flowers with the ratio of red to white flowers being 2:3. If Sally used 12 red flowers, how many whi
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

18 white flowers

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given ratio:

Red : White

2 : 3

If Sally used 12 red flowers, how many white flowers will she use?

Let the number of white flowers Sally uses be represented by x

This is calculated as:

2/3 = 12/x

Cross Multiply

2 × x = 3 × 12

x = 3 × 12/2

x = 18 white flowers

Therefore, if Sally used 12 red flowers, the number of white flowers will she use is 18 white flowers.

The amount c in grams of a 100 gram sample of carbon-14 remaining after t years is represented by the equation c= 100 (0.99988)t
tigry1 [53]

Answer: The amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years is 99.95 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to substitute t=4 in the equation given and solve for c.

c= 100 (0.99988)^t

c =100 (0.99988)^4

c = 100 x 0.999520086

c= 99.95200864 ≅99.95 grams (rounded)

The amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years is 99.95 grams.
