15 boys and 16 girls....total is (15 + 16) = 31

probability that a boys name is drawn : boys/total ppl = 15/31

You can work out the percentage change and that would help you work out the rate of appreciation :)

The formula is ((new value - old value)/old value) * 100.

So you do $\frac{270,000 - 250,000}{250,000} \times 100 = 8\%$

Therefore the rate of appreciation is 8% p/a.

A drop of oil makes a circular ring in a water puddle. The radius of the oil ring expands at 1.5 cm per second. If r(t)=1.5t and

Answer:

$a(t) =n(0.25t^2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$r(t) = 0.5t$

$a(r) = nr^2$

Required

Determine the area in terms of time

From the question, we have:

$r(t) = 0.5t$ -> radius per time

and

$a(r) = nr^2$ --> area from radius

The interpretation of the question is to find the composite function: a(t)

If $a(r) = nr^2$ , and $r(t) = 0.5t$ , the

Substitute 0.5t for r

$a(t) =n(0.5t)^2$

$a(t) =n*0.25t^2$

$a(t) =n(0.25t^2)$

7 or more games

2x = 20+

so if he had 7 games, mark would have double (14 games)z 14+7=21. that's more that 20 games.

Fine the area of a parallelogram with base b and height h.<br> b = 82 cm<br> h = 16.6 cm

Alona [7]

I just added an answer to a question exactly like that. The answer would be 1, 361.2. To find area you need to multiply the base and height together. Just think, b*h=a. Base times height equals area. Good luck!
