Answer: 91. I find the easiest method for questions like this about ratios is to multiply the side of the ratio you are given a value for, in this case the right hand side (children), by a number so it equals the value given. This was 2x13 to equal 26. Then, to find the value of the other side, the adults, you must multiply the left hand side by the same number used on the right hand side. 7x13 equals 91.

An electrician has 4.1 meters of wire how many strips 7/10 m can he cut . How much wire will he have left
kogti [31]
7/10 m= 0.7 m

4.1÷0.7=5.85 

You would round down 5.85 to just 5, because he cannot cut less than a whole strip.

To find the exact amount of wire used in 5 strips:

5×0.7= 3.5

4.1-3.5= 0.6 m will be leftover.

Y=-x^2-10x+24 What is the y value of the vertex?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Get the equation in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c.

2.) Calculate -b / 2a. This is the x-coordinate of the vertex.

3.) To find the y-coordinate of the vertex, simply plug the value of -b / 2a into the equation for x and solve for y. This is the y-coordinate of the vertex.

1.) y = -x^2 - 10x + 24

2.) -(-10) / 2(-1) = -5

3.) y = -(-5)^2 - 10(-5) + 24

    y = -25 + 50 + 24

    y = 49

Stolb23 [73]
Jim's backyard:
15 5/6 yd long
10 2/5 yd wide

Sod pieced:
1 1/3 yd long
1 1/3 yd wide

Area of backyard:
15 5/6 times 10 2/5 =
164 2/3 yd

Area of Sod Piece:
1 1/3 times 1 1/3 =
1 7/9 yd

Divide area of backyard by area of sod piece :
164 2/3 divided by 1 7/9 =
92 5/8

He will need to buy 93 pieces of sod to cover his backyard.

What is the left wedges surface area??
dimaraw [331]

Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.

Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.
