Answer:

Sixth graders: 14

Seventh graders: 28

Eighth graders: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you just have to use a rule of three to solve the percentages, remember that the 100% will be the 70 students, and we solve each case separetly:

70 students= 100%

sixth grades=   40%

Sixth grades= (40*70)/100

Sixth graders= 28

70 students= 100%

seventh grades=   20%

seventh graders=   (20*70)/100

Seventh graders=14

So if we have that the rest of the students are eighth graders, we just add up the sixth and seventh graders and withdraw them from the total:

28+14=42

70-42=28

SOwe have that the eighth graders are 28

Find the volume of the Canada post mailbox shown below.
harina [27]

Answer:

1,152,112.5 cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of this mailbox we can separate in two parts:

A rectangular prism, with dimensions 180 cm x 70 cm x 85.5 cm and

A triangular prism, with dimensions 25 cm x 70 cm x 85.5 cm.

Now we need to find the volume of both parts:

V_rectangular = 180 * 70 * 85.5 = 1,077,300 cm3

V_triangular = (1/2) * 25 * 70 * 85.5 = 74,812.5 cm3

Finally, we just need to sum the volumes of the parts:

V_mailbox = V_rectangular + V_triangular = 1077300 + 74812.5 = 1,152,112.5 cm3

What is the Slope of a line That contains (2,5) and (3, 1) Sketch the graph. Need help with this question.​
Svetach [21]

Answer:

-4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, first plot the two points we are given on the provided coordinate plain. Then using rise/run (slope) find the distance between the two points going up and over or rising and running. So we go up 4 and over 1, this means the slope is 4/1. Since the line we just graphed is going top left towards bottom right, it is negative.

I hope this helps u!! :)
