Answer:
V=whl=3·9·7=189, Which is 189.
Step-by-step explanation:
X would equal 9. Subtract 18 from both sides then divide by two to get 9 as X
Answer:
1.778 times more or 16/9 times more
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Mirror 1: D_1 = 8''
- Mirror 2: D_2 = 6"
Find:
Compare the light gathering power of an 8" primary mirror with a 6" primary mirror. The 8" mirror has how much light gathering power?
Solution:
- The light gathering power of a mirror (LGP) is proportional to the Area of the objects:
LGP ∝ A
- Whereas, Area is proportional to the squared of the diameter i.e an area of a circle:
A ∝ D^2
- Hence, LGP ∝ D^2
- Now compare the two diameters given:
LGP_1 ∝ (D_1)^2
LGP ∝ (D_2)^2
- Take a ratio of both:
LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ (D_1)^2 / (D_2)^2
- Plug in the values:
LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ (8)^2 / (6)^2
- Compute: LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ 16/9 ≅ 1.778 times more
Answer: 31.25%
Step-by-step explanation: To answer the question <em>what percent of 80 is 25</em>, we translate the question into an equation.
So we have "what percent" that's x, "of 80" means times 80, "is 25" = 25.
Now to solve for <em>x</em>, since <em>x</em> is being multiplied by 80, we need to divide by 80 on both sides of the equation. On the left side of the equation the 80's cancel and we have <em>x</em> and on the right side of the equation, we have 25 ÷ 80 which gives us 0<em>.</em>3125. Now, remember that we want to right our answer as a percent so to write 0.3125 as a percent, we move the decimal point 2 places to the right and we get 31.25%.
Therefore, 31.25% of 80 is 25.
