A teacher needs 256 lengths of string cut to 40cm each. If balls of string are 30M long, how many balls are needed?

1 answer:

4 0

First you need to work out how much string is needed -
256 pieces needed x 40cm each:
256 x 40 = 10240cm

Then, convert to metres (100cm = 1m)
10240 / 100 = 102.4m

Then, you work out how many balls are needed:
30 can fit into 102.4 3 times with .41m to spare. So, you need three balls of string, PLUS another one to cover the 41cm

So to conclude: 4 balls of string are needed.

An electronics store makes a profit of $72.00 for every television sold and $90.00 for every computer sold. The manager’s target

viktelen [127]

Answer:

<h2>Option A, C and D is the three possible solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Each Television earns $72 and each Computer earns $90.

The manager’s target is to make at least $360.00 a day.

It is <u>not clarified the exact number of Televisions and Computers</u>.

Hence, as per the given condition, $72x + 90y \geq 360\\8x + 10y \geq 40\\4x + 5y \geq 20$ .

Now we just need to check the given options, whether they satisfy the above equation, or not.

Except the option B, each inequality indicates a value greater than 360.

Hence, option B can not be the possible solution.

hey, do any of you guys know how to plot functions on a graph. You know like f(X) and g(X)? I find it really hard and also do yo

It helps if you have an example, like f(x) = 2x+3
What you typically do, is:

- draw xy axis, label them (ie., 1,2,3,4 along both axes)
- calculate the f(x) values for several x (e.g., -2, 0, 1, 3, doesn't matter).
- plot the calculated values as points. The calculated f(x) is your y value.
- sketch a smooth line through the points. It helps if you know in advance if the line is going to be straight or curved.
- The more points you calculate, the more accurate your graph will be

The total amount shared by the friends illustrates mean and average, and the amount spent by each friend is $11.5

<h3>How to determine the amount?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Total = $76
Tip = $16
Number of friends = 8

The amount spent by each friend is calculated using:

Amount = (Total + Tip)/Number of friends

So, we have:

Amount = (76 + 16)/8

Evaluate

Amount = 11.5

Hence, the amount spent by each friend is $11.5

I keep putting in the formula but I keep getting the answer wrong

Advocard [28]

Answer:

314 in² (nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Radius of a regular polygon</u>: The distance from the <u>center</u> of the polygon to any vertex. The radius of a hexagon is equal to the length of one side.

Therefore, from inspection of the given diagram:

radius = 11 in ⇒ side length = 11 in

To find the area of a regular polygon, we first need to calculate the apothem. The <u>apothem</u> is the line drawn from the center of the polygon to the midpoint of one of its sides.

$\textsf{Length of apothem (a)}=\dfrac{s}{2 \tan\left(\frac{180^{\circ}}{n}\right)}$
