Answer:

c. 309

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

to solve the problem we will use a rule of three

Step 1

82.5%  ⇒ 254 emp

100%   ⇒ xemp

x\emp\ (82.25\%)=254\emp*100\%\\\x\ emp\ =\frac{254\ emp*100\%}{(82.25\%)}\\ X=308.8145897\\

x represents number of employees so it must be a positive integer

x=309

step 2

prove 1

x*(82.25/100)=308*(82.25/100)

82.25 % of x = 254.1525

x=254, ok

note:

It is rounded to 254 because the percentage given in the exercise is not accurate, it should be 82.20064725%

Have a great day.

What is the value of x in the product of powers below plz I need help
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall this rule of exponents:

a^b*a^c = a^(b+c)

We have:

6^9*6^x = 6^2

Then 9 + x = 2.  Subtracting 9 from both sides, we get:  x = -7

A need help Dilations-He Said, She Said (12/10)
Elodia [21]

Answer:

We conclude that the original triangle ΔDEF is dilated by a scale factor of 5/2 to get the image triangle ΔD'E'F'.

Therefore, 'Cárl' is correct. Hence, option 'a' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Checking the location of the vertices of the original triangle ΔDEF

  • D(-2, 4)
  • E(2, 4)
  • F(0, 2)

Checking the location of the dilated vertices of the image triangle ΔD'E'F'

  • D'(-5, 10)
  • E'(5, 10)
  • F'(0, 5)

Notice that if we multiply the vertices of the original triangle ΔDEF by 5/2, we get the correct image vertices of image triangleΔD'E'F'

i.e.

D(-2, 4) → D'(5/2 (-2), 5/2 (4))  → D'(-5, 10)

E(2, 4) → E'(5/2 (2), 5/2(4))  → D'(5, 10)

F(0, 2) → E'(5/2 (0), 5/2(2))  → F'(0, 5)

Thus, we conclude that the original triangle ΔDEF is dilated by a scale factor of 5/2 to get the image triangle ΔD'E'F'.

Therefore, 'Cárl' is correct. Hence, option 'a' is correct.

How many degrees in a full rotation?
ANTONII [103]
We call a full circle or a full rotation 360 degrees.  There's nothing magic
or mathematical about that number.  It was invented by people.  It could
have been any number they wanted. 

But it was a great choice because it has a lot of factors. With 360 degrees
in a full rotation, you can split up a full rotation into 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12,
15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, or 180 equal pieces, without
ever slicing up a degree !
