Because we are dealing with area, we have to square the difference of the 2 polygons.40 / 15 = <span> <span> <span> 2.6666666667 </span> </span> </span> <span> <span> <span> 2.6666666667^2 = </span></span></span> <span> <span> <span> 7.1111111111

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches. If Stanley has 49 seashells from Flori
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.

Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.

Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.

Let the number of seashells all together be x.

Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.

Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.

Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:

35\%\ of\ x=49.

⇒ \frac{35}{100} \times x=49

⇒ 0.35\times x=49

⇒ 0.35x=49

Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:

⇒ x=140.

Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

A construction company purchased some equipment costing $300,000. The value of the equipment depreciates
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

11.9\ years  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The  formula to calculate the depreciated value  is equal to  

V=P(1-r)^{x}  

where  

V is the depreciated value  

P is the original value  

r is the rate of depreciation  in decimal  

x  is Number of Time Periods  

in this problem we have  

P=\$300,000\\r=14\%=14/100=0.14\\V=\$50,000

substitute the values and solve for x

50,000=300,000(1-0.14)^{x}  

(50,000/300,000)=(0.86)^{x}  

(5/30)=(0.86)^{x}  

Apply log both sides

log(5/30)=(x)log(0.86)  

x=log(5/30)/log(0.86)  

x=11.9\ years
