Answer:

P = 169.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a four sided shape with 4 perpendicular angles. It has two pairs of parallel sides which are equal in distance: width and length. Its area, the amount of space inside it, can be found using the formula A = l*w. If the area is 600.6 m² and the length is 7.8m, you can solve for the width by dividing the area by the length. Division is the inverse operation of multiplication and it will isolate the width.

600.6 / 7.8 = 77 inches.

On contrast, the perimeter is the distance around the shape. It si found by adding all sides together in the formula P = 2l + 2w. Substitute l = 7.8 and w =77.

P = 2(7.8) + 2(77)

P = 15.6 + 154

P = 169.6 meters

A population of insects increases at a rate of 1.5% per day. About how long will it take the population to double?
never [62]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

46.6 days

Explanation:

The general form for exponential growth is

A=p(1+r)^t, where A is the total amount, p is the initial amount, r is the percent of growth, and t is the amount of time (in this case, days).

We do not know the initial amount, the total amount, or the amount of time.  We do know that r, the percent of growth, is 1.5%; 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015:

A=p(1+0.015)^t

We also know we want the total amount, A, to be twice that of the initial amount, p:

2p = p(1+0.015)^t&#10;\\&#10;2p=p(1.015)^t

Divide both sides by p:

\frac{2p}{p}=\frac{p(1.015)^t}{p}&#10;\\&#10;\\ 2=1.015^t

Using logarithms to solve this,

\log_{1.015}(2)=t&#10;\\&#10;\\46.6=t

Your friends shuffle the cards and then deal them. Select probability of getting a red card. Select probability of getting a spa
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

1/2 ; 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cards in a deck = 52

Number of red cards = 26

Number of spades = 13

Probability of event A :

P(A) = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P( red card) = number of red cards / total cards in deck

P(red card) = 26 / 52 = 1/2

P(spade) = number of spades / total cards in deck

P(red card) = 13 / 52 = 1 / 4

What % could i make 2/5 of a hour? like 10% of a hour. like that.
yarga [219]

well, we can say that 1 hour is 100%, what is 2/5 hr off of it in percentage?

\begin{array}{ccll} hour&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 100\\ \frac{2}{5}& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{1}{~~ \frac{2}{5}~~}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 5x=200\implies x=\cfrac{200}{5}\implies x=40
