Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting up an equation to solve,

25 as the denominator representing the total number of baseball games played to represent the "whole."

10 as the numerator representing the number of games the baseball games won to represent the "part" you want to calculate as a percentage.

The equation, looking like this,

10/25 = ___

after calculating the equation you get 2/5 as reduced, evaluating that in terms of percentage you get 40% as 5 represents 100% (the whole) and 2 representing 40% (the number of baseball games won)

Tara wants to fix the location of a mountain by taking measurements from two positions 3 miles apart. From the first position, t

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Shortest distance from the mountain is 3.17 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Let a mountain is located at point A.

Angle between the mountain and point B (∠B) = 53°

Angle between the mountain and point C (∠C) = 78°

Distance between these points = 3 miles

Since, m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

m∠A + 53° + 78° = 180°

m∠A = 180°- 131° = 49°

By applying sine rule in triangle ABC,

$\frac{\text{sin}(49)}{BC}=\frac{\text{sin}(53)}{AC}= \frac{\text{sin}(78)}{AB}$

$\frac{\text{sin}(49)}{3}=\frac{\text{sin}(53)}{AC}= \frac{\text{sin}(78)}{AB}$

$\frac{\text{sin}(49)}{3}=\frac{\text{sin}(53)}{AC}$

AC = $\frac{3\text{sin}(53)}{\text{sin}(49)}$

AC = 3.17 miles

$\frac{\text{sin}(49)}{3}=\frac{\text{sin}(78)}{AB}$

AB = $\frac{3\text{sin}(78)}{\text{sin}(49)}$

AB = 3.89 miles

Therefore, shortest distance from the mountain is 3.17 miles.

Solve for u -5(-5u+5)-8u=5(u-5)-4

sergij07 [2.7K]

$- 5( - 5u + 5) - 8u = 5(u - 5) - 4$

$25u - 25 - 8u = 5u - 25 - 4$

$17u - 25 = 5u -29$

$17u - 5u = - 29 + 25$

$12u = - 4$

$u = \frac{ - 4}{12}$

$u = - \frac{1}{3}$

A soccer coach filled a water cooler with 34.07 liters of water before a game. The players drank 29.6 liters during their game.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

4.47 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many liters were left, subtract the amount they drank from the original amount:

34.07 - 29.6

= 4.47

So, there were 4.47 liters of water left in the cooler.
