If he catches 2 out of 5, that mean he catches 14 out of x. We multiply 2 by 7 to get 14, so we multiply 7 by 5 to get 35. 35 balls were thrown at him. To check your work you can simply simplify 14/35 to get 2 out of 5 again. Hope this helps!

Answer:

x = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

since, the triangles are complementary the sum of their measures will be 90°

now,

  • =》30° + x = 90°

  • =》x = 90° - 30°

  • =》x = 60°

Please solve this i really need this

Answer:

a = 8 (to nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<B = 36°

m<C = 104°

c = 12

Required:

a

SOLUTION:

✔️First find m<A:

m<A = 180 - (104 + 36)

m<A = 40°

✔️Find a using Sine Rule:

Thus:

\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{c}{sin(C)}

Plug in the values

\frac{a}{sin(40)} = \frac{12}{sin(104)}

Multiply both sides by sin(40)

\frac{a}{sin(40)} * sin(40) = \frac{12}{sin(104)} * sin(40)

a = \frac{12*sin(40)}{sin(104)}

a = 8 (nearest whole number)

Time intervals measured with a stopwatch typically have an uncertainty of about 0.2 seconds, due to human reaction time at the s
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

a) 2,650%

b) 27,400%

c) 164,900%

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to measure the percentage we would have to increase the typical value to obtain the values given in a), b) and c).  

But 0.2 increased in x% equals  

0.2 + 0.2(x/100) =0.2(1+x/100)

So, if we want to increase 0.2 in x%, we must multiply it by (1+x/100)

a)

We need to find the value of x such that

0.2(1+x/100) = 5.5 ⇒ (1+x/100)=5.5/0.2 ⇒  1+x/100=27.5

⇒  x/100=26.5 ⇒ x=2,650%

b)

0.2(1+x/100) = 55 ⇒ (1+x/100)=55/0.2 ⇒  1+x/100=275

⇒  x/100=274 ⇒ x=27,400%

c)

5.5 min = 5.5*60 s = 330

0.2(1+x/100) = 330 ⇒ (1+x/100)=330/0.2 ⇒  1+x/100=1,650

⇒  x/100=1,649 ⇒ x=164,900%

Are these ratios equivalent 3/7, 18/42
galina1969 [7]
Yes, the two ratios are equivalent. If you multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 6, you will get 18/42.
