Answer:

243 trees were saved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recycling one metric ton (1000 kg) of corrugated cardboard will save number of trees = 17

Warehouse recycled 14327 kg of cardboard last year. So we have to find the number of trees saved.

To find the number of trees we will use the unitary method.

∵ Recycling 1000 kg of cardboard number of trees saved = 17

∴ Recycling 1 kg cardboard number of trees saved = \frac{17}{1000}

∴ 14327 kg cardboard will save the number of trees = \frac{17}{1000}\times 14327

= 243.559

≈ 243 trees

Therefore, 243 trees were saved.

1 kg = 0.001 metric tons..so 14327 kg = (14327 * 0.001) = 14.327 metric tons
and if 1 metric tons saves 17 trees....then 14.327 tons saves : 14.327 * 17 = 243.559 saved trees...and since u cant have 0.559 trees, u would round to 243 trees

Round seven point seven six to one decimal place
Rzqust [24]
7.76 to one decimal place

= 7.8

We are looking at one decimal place, in this case the number 7 after the decimal place next to 6. Any number above 5 rounds up the number in front of it. 6 is above 5 so it changes the 7 to an 8.

Compute the total and annual return on the following investment Two years after paying 53500 for shares in a startup company you
wel

Answer:

-46.91%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of buying the shares = $53,500

Selling cost of the shares = $3,300

Number of years = 2

Since the selling cost is less than the buying cost, therefore the statement for the loss can be verified

Now,

The loss = Selling cost - cost of buying = $3,300 - $53,500 = - $50,200

thus, the loss per year = \frac{\textup{50,200}}{\textup{2}} = -$25100

Hence,

Rate of return = \frac{\textup{Loss per year}}{\textup{Cost of buying}}\times100

or

Rate of return = \frac{\textup{-25100}}{\textup{53,500}}\times100

or

Rate of return = -46.91%
