Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Its basic division really. The easiest way to think of it is how many times can 3 fit into 12 three fits into 12 four times in fraction that's 1/4 or 1 over 4. Just like the quarter (United States quarter) each one is 25 cents and you need 4 of then to make 1 US dollar or 100% so each group of three is 25 percent. This under standing could work with a variety of numbers 5 is what percent of 20 or 7 is what percent of 28 if it comes in 4s each is 25%. Hope this helps.

7. A cylindrical tank can hold 2279.64 cubic feet of water. The radius of the tank is 11 feet. What is the height of the tank?

aliina [53]

Answer:

r = 8.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume for a cylinder is V=πr^2h therefore,

v = 2279.64

h = 11ft

r = ?

2279.64 = πr^2 * 11

$\frac{2279.64}{11}= {\pi r^2} \\$

207.24 = πr^2

$\frac{207.24}{\pi} =r^2\\\\66 = r^2\\\\\sqrt{66} = r\\\\\\8.12 = r$

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

$x = \frac{1}{2} \times \sqrt{6} \\ \\ x = \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{2} \\ \\ y = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} \times \sqrt{6} \\ \\ y = \frac{ \sqrt{3 \times 6} }{2} \\ \\ y = \frac{ \sqrt{18} }{2} \\ \\ y = \frac{ 3\sqrt{2} }{2}$
