Answer:

12,662 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of books = 75,972

No. of science books = ⅓ of 75,972 = ⅓*75,972 = 25,324 books.

No. of business books = 75% of the remaining books = 75% of (75,972 - 25,324)

= \frac{75}{100}*50,648 = 37,986

No. of business books = 37,986

No. of maths books in the math section = 75,972 - (25,324 + 37,986)

= 75,972 - 63,310

= 12,662 books

A quadrilateral with 90 degree angles is shown. The lengths of the left and right sides are 10 and 2 y + 4. The lengths of the t
notka56 [123]

Answer: y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quadrilateral has 90 degree angles, it must be a a square or a rectangle. This means the measure of sides left and right are the same and the measure of sides top and bottom are the same.

To get the measure of y, you can use left and right or top nd bottom.

I'll use left and right. 10=2y+4 => 10-4=2y => 6=2y => y=3

You can check it by substituting. 2(3)+4=10      The answer is the measure of the right side, which is the same as the measure of the left side.

I hope this helps you!

Describe the end behavior of the function:<br> f(x) = 1/2*2^x +3
suter [353]
Although there is (1/2) in the front of the expression, the base is 2, not (1/2). (1/2) is a positive number, and 2 is a positive number larger than 1, so as x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches infinity as well. as x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches 3.
