The ratio of the areas of two squares is 4 to 9, what is the ratio of their perimeter in the same order?

1 answer:

7 0

A square with area 4 has side lengths of 2 since s^2 = area
A square with area 9 has side lengths of 3 since s^2 = area
The perimeter of a square with side length 2 is 4*2
The perimeter of a square with side length 3 is 4*3
So ratio of the perimeters is 2:3

If $1000 is invested in an account earning 3% compounded monthly, how long will it take the account to grow in value to $1500? R

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

14 months

Step-by-step explanation:

1 month) 1.03(1000) = 1030

2 months) 1030(1.03) = 1060.9

3 months) 1060.9(1.03) = 1092.727

4 months) 1092.727(1.03) = 1125.50881

5 months) 1125.50881(1.03) = 1159.2740743

6 months) 1159.2740743(1.03) = 1194.05229653

7 months) 1194.05229653(1.03) = 1229.87386542

8 months) 1229.87386542(1.03) = 1266.77008139

9 months) 1266.77008139(1.03) = 1304.77318383

10 months) 1304.77318383(1.03) = 1370.01184302

11 months) 1370.01184302(1.03) = 1411.11219831

12 months) 1411.11219831(1.03) = 1453.44556426

13 months) 1453.44556426(1.03) = 1497.04893119

14 months) 1497.04893119(1.03) = 1541.96039912

I multiplied them all by 1.03 because 0.03 is 3% but if I multiplied the numbers by 0.03 it would give me 3% of that number instead of increasing it by 3% so by doing 1.03 x the number I am adding the 3% onto the number

For 2 sweaters for that price what percent discount is that?

Harrizon [31]

Answer: 75% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Your first sweater is the full 100% of the cost. The second it only 50 percent. If you add these to find out how many percent you will pay which is 150 for both. If you were to divide by 2 you get 75 percent off each sweater. The first sweater is $48 the second you multiply by .5 (as its 50 percent off ) and the cost is $24 dollars. 48 plus 24 is 72 then that divided by 2 is 36. Now 36$ is the price per sweater. 36/48 or 3/4 (which is 75%)

At the building site there are 16 pallets with sacks of cement the total weight of all the pallets and cement is 4856 pounds eac

inysia [295]

The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
We have then:
x: weight of each pallet with cement
We then have the following equation:
16x = 4856
Clearing x we have:
x = (4856) / (16)
x = 303.5 punds
Answer:
each pallet with cement weigh:
x = 303.5 punds
