Adults 0.24 0.36 0.60
Children 0.11 0.29 0.40
Total 0.35 0.65 1.00

Select the true statement.

A. A smaller percentage of children (43%) prefer pizza.
B. A smaller percentage of children (30%) prefer pizza.

The 60% of adults who like pizza was found by dividing the adults who like pizza ( 0.36) by the total adults ( 0.60): 0.36 / 0.6 = 0.6 = 60%

To find the percent of children that like pizza divide 0.29 by 0.40:

0.29 / 0.40 = 0.725 = 72.5%, which is about 70%

The answer would be C. A greater percentage of children (about 70%) prefer pizza.

Solve the equation x2 + x = 12.
Otrada [13]

please give brainliest

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x2+x=12

Step 1: Subtract 12 from both sides.

x2+x−12=12−12

x2+x−12=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(x−3)(x+4)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

x−3=0 or x+4=0

x=3 or x=−4

Answer:

x=3 or x=−4

blondinia [14]

Answer:

d)  x  = 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding Angles:   The pair of angles formed on the same side of traversal which crosses two parallel lines is called a pair of corresponding angles.

These angles are EQUAL to each other.

Now, here in the given figure:

The two below lines are parallel to each other.

Also, the line crossing it on the right side forms a traversal.

So angle x and angle with 72 degrees form a pair of Corresponding Angles.

⇒ x  = 72°

Hence the measure of angle x  = 72°

Farmer Joe has his horses in a rectangular pen. The length of the pen is 10 feet longer than three times its width. The total fe
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The width of the garden is 100 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(L+W) where L = length and W = width.

Since we know the perimeter (the fence that surrounds the garden) is 820 feet and the length of the pen is 10 feet longer than 3 times its width, we can set an equation and solve for the width:

L = 10 + 3W

So substitute 10 + 3W for L in the equation:

2[(10 + 3W) + W) = 820

2(10 + 4W) = 820

10 + 4W = 410

4W = 400

W = 100

Therefore, the width of the garden is 100 feet.
