If you use the 365 days

first you multiply 365x24

there are 8760 hours in a year

then it is 365x7= 2555

8760-2555

you are awake 6205 hours

The table shows how many books the students in Bergdalsskolan list during the summer. There were 48 students who list 4 books. a

Juliette [100K]

Step 1:

First, find the total number of students.

Let the total number of students = m

Step 2:

Find the total number of students using the percentage of 4 books.

48 students listed 4 books with a percentage of 16%

$\begin{gathered} 48\text{ = 16\% of m} \\ 48\text{ = }\frac{16}{100}\text{ }\times\text{ m} \\ 48\text{ = }\frac{16m}{100} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 16m\text{ = 48 }\times\text{ 100} \\ 16m\text{ = 4800} \\ \text{m = }\frac{4800}{16} \\ \text{m = 300} \end{gathered}$

Hence, there are 300 students.

$\begin{gathered} \text{Number of students that had 1 book = 24\% of 300} \\ =\text{ }\frac{24}{100}\text{ }\times\text{ 300} \\ =\text{ }\frac{7200}{100} \\ =\text{ 72 students} \end{gathered}$

72 students had 1 book.

b) What percentage more read 2 books than 4 books?

percentage that read 2 books = 36%

percentage that read 4 books = 16%

36 - 16 = 20%

There are 20% students that read 2 books than 4 books.

Solve the following equation by factoring:9x^2-3x-2=0

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The two roots of the quadratic equation are

$x_1= - \frac{1}{3} \text{ and } x_2= \frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Original quadratic equation is $9x^{2}-3x-2=0$

Divide both sides by 9:

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3} - \frac{2}{9}=0$

Add $\frac{2}{9}$ to both sides to get rid of the constant on the LHS

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3} - \frac{2}{9}+\frac{2}{9}=\frac{2}{9}$ ==> $x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}=\frac{2}{9}$

Add $\frac{1}{36}$ to both sides

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{36}=\frac{2}{9} +\frac{1}{36}$

This simplifies to

$x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{36}=\frac{1}{4}$

Noting that (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

If we set a = x and b = $\frac{1}{6}\right)$ we can see that

$\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2$ = $x^2 - 2.x. (-\frac{1}{6}) + \frac{1}{36} = x^{2} - \frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{36}$

$\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2=\frac{1}{4}$

Taking square roots on both sides

$\left(x - \frac{1}{6}\right)^2= \pm\frac{1}{4}$

So the two roots or solutions of the equation are

$x - \frac{1}{6}=-\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}$ and $x - \frac{1}{6}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}$

$\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} = \frac{1}{2}$

So the two roots are

$x_1=\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{1}{3}$

and

$x_2=\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{3}$

A square has side length 3 units. What is the length of the diagonal?

ella [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

C. 3√2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of a square is √2 times the side length. For a square with side length 3, the diagonal is 3√2.

If you like, you can see this using the Pythagorean theorem.

d² = s² + s² . . . . . where d is the diagonal, and s is the side

d² = 2s²

d = √(2s²) = s√2

For s=3, ...

d = 3√2

Find the area of a regular decagon with perimeter 100 units. Show all work.

Slav-nsk [51]

A regular polygon has ten (10) equal sides ( since it is regular).
We are given with the perimeter value which is 100 units and the perimeter formula is P = 10a
Solving for a (the side measurement), we have:
100 = 10a
a= 100/10
a =10

We can now proceed in solving the area and the formula is shown below:
Area = 5/2 a√ (5+2√5)
Area = 5/2 * 10√(5+2√5)
Area = 76.94 square units

The answer is 96.94 square units.
