Answer:

Yes, Mark has $16 left and only has to pay his sister $15.

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5=x/20

use cross multiplication to find (x),which represents 20% of 20.

x/20=1/5 (cross multiply)

20=5x (divide by 5 on both sides)

x=4

This tells you that Mark gave $4 to the local charity.

20-4=16

Subtracting 4 from his original amount, he now has $16 left.

Answer: yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark gave 1/5 of 20 = $4 to local charity. He has $16 left. He paid his sister $15. He still has $16 - $15 =$1 left

Given that the two triangles are similar, solve for x if AU = 20x + 108, UB = 273, BC = 703, UV = 444, AV = 372 and AC = 589.
skelet666 [1.2K]
Data:

<span>segment AU = 20x + 108,
segment UB = 273,
segment BC = 703,
segment UV = 444,
segment AV = 372 and
segment AC = 589.

From the figure:

1) Similarity => segment AB / segment BC = segment AU / segment UV

2) segment AB = segment AU + segment UB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381

=> (20x + 381) / 703 = (20x + 108) / 444

=> 444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)

=> 8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

=> 14060x - 8880x = 169164 - 75924

=> 5180 x = 93240

=> x = 93240 / 5180

=> x = 18

Answer: x = 18

A grain silo is built from two right circular cones and a right circular cylinder with internal measurements represented by the
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The volume of the grain silo can be found by adding the volumes of all the solids of which it is composed (a cylinder and two cones). The silo is made up of a cylinder (with height 10 feet and base radius 5 feet) and two cones (each with height 5 ft and base radius 5 ft). The formulas given at the beginning of the SAT Math section:

Volume of a Cone:

V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h

Volume of a Cylinder:

V=\pi r^2h

can be used to determine the total volume of the silo. Since the two cones have identical dimensions, the total volume, in cubic feet, of the silo is given by

V_{silo} =\pi (5^2)(10)+(2)(\frac{1}{3})\pi (5^2)(5)=(\frac{4}{3})(250)\pi

which is approximately equal to 1,047.2 cubic feet.

<u>The final answer is D.</u>
