Answer:

5/12 of the students are freshmen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the total number of students.

Then (1/6)n are seniors; (2  1/2)(1/6)n are freshmen, or

(1/6)n are seniors and 5/12 are freshmen.  This comes from multiplying 2.5 by 1/6:  we get .416666..., which is equivalent to 5/12.

Please help me find the perimeter.​
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

31.42 cm (rounded up to two decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

We first find the circumference of the semi-circle segment:

The circumference will be given by; \frac{1}{2} × π × D (where D is the diameter)

The diameter is 6 cm so circumference is;

\frac{1}{2} × π × 6 cm = 9.42 cm (rounded up to two decimal places)

The perimeter of the figure therefore is;

8cm + 6 cm + 8 cm + 9.42 cm = 31.42 cm

Find the value for x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Area of the triangle = 8 ft^2​
zmey [24]

Answer:

x = 3.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, formula to determine the area f a triangle is,

Area = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})

     8 = \frac{1}{2}(x + 1)(3x - 7)

16 = x(3x - 7) + 1(3x - 7)

16 = 3x² - 7x + 3x - 7

16 = 3x² - 4x - 7

0 = 3x² - 4x - 23

3x²- 4x - 23 = 0

By quadratic formula,

x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

x = \frac{4\pm \sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4(3)(-23)}}{2(3)}

x = \frac{4\pm \sqrt{292}}{6}

x = \frac{4\pm 17.09}{6}

x = 3.51, -2.18

But the length of sides can't be negative.

Therefore, x = 3.51 will be the answer.

Convert 17.42 m to customary units. A.57'-17/8" B. 36-10 1/2" C. 442 1/2" D. 367/8" E. None of these answers is reasonable.
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Option E - None of these answers is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Convert 17.42 m to customary units ?

Solution :

The customary units is defined as the measure length and distances in the customary system are inches, feet, yards, and miles.

The options belong to feet and inches.

We have to convert meter into inches, feet.

Meter into feet,

1 \text{ feet} = 0.3048 \text{ meter}

1 \text{ meter} = \frac{1}{0.3048}\text{ feet}

17.42 \text{ meter} = \frac{17.42}{0.3048}\text{ feet}

17.42 \text{ meter} = \frac{174200}{3048}\text{ feet}

17.42 \text{ meter} =57 \frac{464}{3048}\text{ feet}

17.42 \text{ meter} =57 \frac{58}{381}\text{ feet}

Now, Feet into inches

1 \text{ feet} = 12\text{ inches}

\frac{58}{381} \text{ feet} = 12\times \frac{58}{381}\text{ inches}

\frac{58}{381} \text{ feet} =\frac{232}{381}\text{ inches}

i.e.  17.42 \text{ meter} =57\text{ feet }\frac{232}{381}\text{ inches}

or 17.42 \text{ meter} =57'\frac{232}{381}''

None of these answers is reasonable.

Therefore, Option E is correct.
