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.

4x - 5y = 15<br> find the slope and y-intercept
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

slope=4/5

y-intercept = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

first we need to rewrite the expression to

y=mx+b

were b is the y-intercept and m the slope

4x-5y=15\\\\4x-5y+5y=15+5y\\\\4x+0=15+5y\\\\4x=5(3)+5(y)\\\\4x=5(3+y)\\\\\frac{1}{5}*4x= \frac{1}{5}*5(3+y) \\\\\frac{4x}{5}=3+y\\\\\frac{4x}{5} -3=3+y-3\\\\\frac{4x}{5} -3=y+0\\\\y=\frac{4x}{5} -3\\\\y=\frac{4}{5}x-3

so there we have it

m=\frac{4}{5} \\\\b=-3

Find the area of the equilateral triangle
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the side length is s.  Imagine that one side is level.  Draw a vertical line through the top vertex perpendicular to the base (level side).  Label this vertical line "h."  Then h and s are related as follows:

                               √3          h

sin 60 degrees = ------- = --------

                                 2           s

                                                                   s√3

and so h = the height of the triangle =  -----------

                                                                       2

The area of this triangle is (1/2)(base)(height), which here is:

(1/2)(s/2)( s√3 /2), or

        (s^2)√3

A = ---------------

               8
