Answer:

John read for 3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike read 6 hours. Sasha doubled the reading time so 3*2=12. Tom read half of that time, so it is the same as Mike which is 3. John read half of Tom's time, so 6 divided by 2 is 3.

A circle has an 18 inch radius and a shaded sector with a central angle of 50 degrees. What is the area of the shaded sector
Katyanochek1 [597]
Answer: The area of the sector will be about 141.3 square inches.

First, we need to find the area of the entire circle. The formula is pi(r^2). Inputting 18 for the radius makes the area of the circle about 1017.36 square inches.

Now, we multiply by the area by the size of the sector. It is 50 degree out of the entire 360 degrees. That is about 13.9%.

Multiply 13.9% by 1017.36 to get an area of about 141.3 square inches for the sector.

The quotient of two less than a number and five is eight
postnew [5]

Answer:

The number is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number.

"two less than a number" is x - 2

Quotient means the result of a division.

(x - 2)/5 = 8

Multiply both sides by 5.

x - 2 = 40

Add 2 to both sides.

x = 42

Answer: The number is 42.

Check.

Start with 42. 2 less than 42 is 40. The quotient of 40 and 5 is 40/5 which is 8. The answer is correct.

I want to put $580 until I saving account for one year. The rate of interest On the account was 6 1/2%. How much was the interes
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The amount of interest earned for the year is $37.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents principal or amount invested.

T represents the time

R represents the interest rate

I represents the interest

From the information given,

You want to put $580 into a saving account for 1 year. This means that

P = $580 and

T = 1 year

R = 6 1/2 = 6.5%

I = (580× 6.5×1)/100 = $37.7
