Answer:

\text{Fraction of Sara sold }= \dfrac{1675}{2587}

\text{Fraction of Kenny sold }= \dfrac{684}{2587}

\text{Fraction of Leila sold }= \dfrac{228}{2587}

Step-by-step explanation:

The three salespeople for a local advertising firm are sara, Kenny and Leila.

Sara sold total ads = $3350

Kenny sold total ads = $1368

Leila sold total ads = $456

First we calculate total sale of all three = 3350 + 1368 + 456 = $5174

We need to find fraction of total sale with each person sell.

\text{Fraction of Sara sold }=\dfrac{\text{Sara total sold}}{\text{Total sale by all three}}

\text{Fraction of Sara sold }=\dfrac{3350}{5174}\Rightarrow\dfrac{1675}{2587}\approx 64.75\%

\text{Fraction of Kenny sold }=\dfrac{\text{Kenny total sold}}{\text{Total sale by all three}}

\text{Fraction of Kenny sold }=\dfrac{1368}{5174}\Rightarrow\dfrac{684}{2587}\approx 26.45\%

\text{Fraction of Leila sold }=\dfrac{\text{Leila total sold}}{\text{Total sale by all three}}

\text{Fraction of Leila sold }=\dfrac{456}{5174}\Rightarrow\dfrac{228}{2587}\approx 8.8\%

A garden is shaped in the form of a regular heptagon (seven-sided), MNSRQPO. A circle with center T and radius 25m circumscribes
Alenkinab [10]

The relationship between the sides MN, MS, and MQ in the given regular heptagon is \dfrac{1}{MN} = \dfrac{1}{MS} + \dfrac{1}{MQ}

The area to be planted with flowers is approximately <u>923.558 m²</u>

The reason the above value is correct is as follows;

The known parameters of the garden are;

The radius of the circle that circumscribes the heptagon, r = 25 m

The area left for the children playground = ΔMSQ

Required;

The area of the garden planted with flowers

Solution:

The area of an heptagon, is;

A = \dfrac{7}{4} \cdot a^2 \cdot  cot \left (\dfrac{180 ^{\circ}}{7} \right )

The interior angle of an heptagon = 128.571°

The length of a side, S, is given as follows;

\dfrac{s}{sin(180 - 128.571)} = \dfrac{25}{sin \left(\dfrac{128.571}{2} \right)}

s = \dfrac{25}{sin \left(\dfrac{128.571}{2} \right)} \times sin(180 - 128.571) \approx 21.69

The \ apothem \ a = 25 \times sin \left ( \dfrac{128.571}{2} \right) \approx 22.52

The area of the heptagon MNSRQPO is therefore;

A = \dfrac{7}{4} \times 22.52^2 \times cot \left (\dfrac{180 ^{\circ}}{7} \right ) \approx 1,842.94

MS = \sqrt{(21.69^2 + 21.69^2 - 2 \times  21.69 \times21.69\times cos(128.571^{\circ})) \approx 43.08

By sine rule, we have

\dfrac{21.69}{sin(\angle NSM)} = \dfrac{43.08}{sin(128.571 ^{\circ})}

sin(\angle NSM) =\dfrac{21.69}{43.08} \times sin(128.571 ^{\circ})

\angle NSM = arcsin \left(\dfrac{21.69}{43.08} \times sin(128.571 ^{\circ}) \right) \approx 23.18^{\circ}

∠MSQ = 128.571 - 2*23.18 = 82.211

The area of triangle, MSQ, is given as follows;

Area \ of \Delta MSQ = \dfrac{1}{2}  \times  43.08^2 \times sin(82.211^{\circ}) \approx 919.382^{\circ}

The area of the of the garden plated with flowers, A_{req}, is given as follows;

A_{req} = Area of heptagon MNSRQPO - Area of triangle ΔMSQ

Therefore;

A_{req}= 1,842.94 - 919.382 ≈ 923.558

The area of the of the garden plated with flowers, A_{req} ≈ <u>923.558 m²</u>

State a true conclusion. 1) If two planes intersect, their intersection is a line. 2) Plane R and plane S intersect. Conclusion:
Vesna [10]

Two planes that intersect are simply called a plane to plane intersection. When they intersect, the intersection point is simply called a line.

Therefore, Plane R and Plane S form a line when they intersect.

If cells are: a1=90, a2=85, a3=80, a4=75, and a5=75. what will be your formula if you are going to get the average?
swat32
The average can be given by the following formula:
 Average = (a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + a5) / (5).
 Equivalently.
 Average = (ai) / (i).
 Where,
 i = 1,2,3,4, ..., n
 Substituting
 Average = (90 + 85 + 80 + 75 + 75) / (5).
 Average = 81
 answer:
 Average = (a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + a5) / (5).
 or
 Average = (ai) / (i).
 Where,
 i = 1,2,3,4, ..., n
