Troyanec [42]3 years ago

For this problem, you can use the proportion 1696/x = 32/100 since 1696 is 32% (or 32/100) of an unknown number of students . 
You can cross-multiply to get 32x = 169600
Then divide on both sides by 32 and get to 5300. 
Answer: 5300 student applied last year. 
Hope that helps!

The area of a rectangle is 35 cm2 what could the length of the 4th sides be
Talja [164]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle is length times width.  Since a rectangle has four sides, there will be two sides that have the length size and two with the width.  Anyway, now we need to find what numbers multiply together to make 35.

7 and 5 are the only whole numbers that multiply together to make 35, so those hve to be the length and width.  So two sides opposite each other are going to be 7 cm and the other two are going to be 5 cm

A building has an entry the shape of a parabolic arch 52ft high and 42ft wide at the base. Find an equation for the parabola if
Lady bird [3.3K]
The description expresses three points which can be used for a standard form equation. The vertex is stated to be (0,0) and is a maximum; two other points are (-21,-74) and (21,-74)
The equation for vertex form of a parabola:
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex (h,k)
thus our equation will be:
y=a(x-0)^2+0
thus
y=ax^2
using one of the points, the value of a will be:
-74=a(21)^2
a=-74/441
thus the equation will be:
y=-74/441x²

Find the missing side of the triangle. Side LaTeX: cc is the hypotenuse and sides LaTeX: aa and LaTeX: bb are legs. Leave your a
mylen [45]

Answer:

c = 2\sqrt{5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a = 2

b = 4

c = hypotenuse

Required

Find c

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Substitute values for a and b

c^2 = 2^2 + 4^2

c^2 = 4 + 16

c^2 = 20

Take square roots of both sides:

c = \sqrt{20

Express 20 as 4 * 5

c = \sqrt{4 * 5

Split surd

c = \sqrt{4} * \sqrt{5

Take square root of 4

c = 2 * \sqrt{5

c = 2\sqrt{5
