The manager already hired 9 people. Let $x$ be the number of people he still can hire. Since these people will add to the 9 he already hired, when the hiring campaign will be over he will have hired $9+x$ people. We know that he can't hire more than 14 people, so the number of people hired must be less than or equal to 14:

$9+x \leq 14$

If we subtract 9 from both sides, we have

$x \leq 14-9=5$

so, the manager can hire at most 5 other people

12 = 12/1 = 24/2, 24/2+1/2=25/2 so 25/2, and it's in simplest form because 2 can't go into 25

The area of the shaded sector is shown. Find the radius of circle M. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the sector, its area and the angle at the center are not given.

I will solve this using the following illusration

The area of a sector is:

$Area= \frac{\theta}{360} * \pi r^2$

Assume that:

$\theta = 120$

$Area = 20$

The equation becomes

$20= \frac{120}{360} * \pi r^2$

Simplify

$20= \frac{1}{3} * \pi r^2$

Take: $\pi = 3.14$

$20= \frac{1}{3} *3.14* r^2$

Cross Multiply

$3.14 * r^2 = 20 * 3\\$

Solve for $r^2$

$r^2 = \frac{20 * 3}{3.14}$

$r^2 = 19.11$

Take square roots

$r = \sqrt{19.11$

$r = 4.4$

How would you estimate whether 27/50 is closer to 1/2 or 1 without using a number line? Explain.

Ivahew [28]

Answer

$Find\ out\ the\ how\ would\ you\ estimate\ whether\ \frac{27}{50}\ is\ closer\ \frac{1}{2} to\ or 1\ without\ using\ a\ number\ line .$

To prove

$As\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{27}{50}\ in\ decimal\ form.$

$= \frac{27}{50}$

= 0.54

$As\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{1}{2}\ in\ decimal\ form.$

$= \frac{1}{2}$

= 0.5

$As\ the\ value\ of\ 1 \ in\ decimal\ form.$

= 1.00

Now we find out the mid point of the 0.5 and 1.00 .

$Mid\ point = \frac{1.00+0.5}{2}$

(Mid point is the point lies middle of a line segment .)

Mid point = 0.75

Thus

$0.54< 0.75$

This shows o.54 lies between 0.5 and 1.00

This means 0.54 lies right to 0.5 and left from 1.00 .

Therefore

$\frac{27}{50}\ lies\ right\ to\ \frac{1}{2} and\ left\ from\ 1.$
