Total wages = 1
Food = 1/3
Rent = 1/5
Savings = total wages - food - rent
= 1 - 1/3 - 1/5
= 15/15 - 5/15 - 3/15
= 7/15

If the parallelogram floor needs a base of 16 feet,what will the height of the floor be
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete because the area of the parallelogram is missing. However, the following will guide you in answering the question</em>

Given

Base = 16\ ft

Required

Determine the Height

Area of a Parallelogram is:

Area = Base * Height

Make Height the subject

Height = \frac{Area}{Base}

Substitute 16 for Base

Height = \frac{Area}{16}

This implies that you divide the value of area by 16 to get the height of the parallelogram.

Take for instance;

Area = 64ft\²

The height would be

Height = \frac{64}{16}

Height = 4\ ft

Or

Area = 80ft\²

The height would be

Height = \frac{80}{16}

Height = 5\ ft

Answer:

605 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7

and there are 847 girls

we can plug this value into the ratio by doing something like:

5:7

= 5/7

= x/847

Because the ratio has to be the same, we can substitute x for the number of boys and solve by the cross method or whatever you guys call it.

5            x

---   x    ------

7          847

The x in the middle is just to show the direction you are multiplying.

the 5 is multiplied by the 847 and the 7 is multiplied by x.

847 * 5 = 4,235

4,235  divided by 7 is 605

605 is your answer.

The cross method can be used in most situations.

* is used to represent multiplication btw

In attempting to calculate the carrying capacity of a cylindrical pipe, Avery measured the outer diameter to be 2 inches, neglec
andreev551 [17]
Volume of the pipe = πr^2l
Wrong measure = π x (2)^2 x l = 4πl
Correct measure = π x (2 - 2(1/8))^2 x l = 49/16πl
error = 4πl - 49/16πl = 15/16πl

% error = ((15/16πl) / 49/16πl) x 100% = 30.6%
