The table is shown below in the attached picture.

The grand total is the bottom rightmost cell, yellow in color.

12th graders AND likes specialty cold drinks is the cell colored green.

These 137 people are p% of the total. To get the value of p, we will divide this number (137) by grand total (750) and multiply by 100 to get the value.

\frac{137}{750} =0.183=18.3%.

Rounded to the nearest percent, it is 18%. Answer choice D is correct.

Find two positive consecutive odd integers such that square of the smaller integer is 10 more than the larger integer
Otrada [13]

Let 2n+1 be the smaller integer. The larger integer is then 2n+3, and we have

(2n+1)^2=10+(2n+3)\implies4n^2+4n+1=2n+13

\implies4n^2+2n-12=0

\implies2n^2+n-6=0

\implies(2n-3)(n+2)=0

\implies 2n-3=0\text{ or }n+2=0

\implies n=\dfrac32\text{ or }n=-2

We omit n=-2, since 2(-2)+1=-3 is negative.

Then for n=\dfrac32 we find 2\left(\dfrac32\right)+1=4, but this is not odd.

There are no consecutive odd integers that satisfy the given condition!

Wilma and Fred rode their bikes toward each other from points on a straight road 32 miles apart. If Fred rode 3 miles per hour f
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

wilma is 22.5 mph

fred is 25.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Time:40 minutes, or 2/3 hours

Speed:

Fred:x+3

Wilma: x

Distance:32 miles

2/3(x+x+3)=32

2/3(2x+3)=32

1 1/3x+2=32

4/3x=30

x=22.5

wilma is 22.5 mph

fred is 22.5+3= 25.5 mph

Please someone help me with this word problem for my math class T.T
olga55 [171]

Answer:

<u>Perimeter</u>:

= 58 m (approximate)

= 58.2066 or 58.21 m (exact)

<u>Area:</u>

= 208 m² (approximate)

= 210.0006 or 210 m² (exact)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following dimensions of a rectangle:

length (L) = \sqrt{252} meters

width (W) = \sqrt{175} meters

The formula for solving the perimeter of a rectangle is:

P  = 2(L + W) or 2L + 2W

The formula for solving the area of a rectangle is:

A = L × W

<h2>Approximate Forms:</h2>

In order to determine the approximate perimeter, we must determine the perfect square that is close to the given dimensions.  

13² = 169

14² = 196

15² = 225

16² = 256

Among the perfect squares provided, 16² = 256 is close to 252 (inside the given radical for the length), and 13² = 169 (inside the given radical for the width).  We can use these values to approximate the perimeter and the area of the rectangle.

P  = 2(L + W)

P = 2(13 + 16)

P = 58 m (approximate)

A = L × W

A = 13 × 16

A = 208 m² (approximate)

<h2>Exact Forms:</h2>

L = \sqrt{252} meters = 15.8745 meters

W = \sqrt{175} meters = 13.2288 meters

P  = 2(L + W)

P = 2(15.8745 + 13.2288)

P = 2(29.1033)

P = 58.2066 or 58.21 m

A = L × W

A = 15.8745 × 13.2288

A = 210.0006 or 210 m²

True or false: f(x) represents a function.<br> A. True <br> B. False
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

A.) True

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of outputs and inputs becomes a function when there is only one output per input. In this case, each "x" value only has one "y" value, making it a function.
