4.5 boxes of nails are required for finishing 2 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

3.4 boxes of nails are required for finishing 1.5 tables

Required:

How much boxes of nails would he use for finishing 2 tables

Solution:

We can solve using Unitary Method:

Nails needed to finish 1.5 tables = 3.4 boxes

Nails needed to finish 1 table = $\frac{3.4}{1.5}\,\,boxes$

Nails needed to finish 2 tables = $\frac{3.4}{1.5}*2 =4.5\,\,boxes$

So, 4.5 boxes of nails are required for finishing 2 tables.

There are 1,295 students attending a small university.There are 714 women enrolled. What percent of the students are women. Equa

Semenov [28]

If 1295 × p = 714, then you can rearrange the equation to find the percentage.

You have to get p on its own, so you divide 1295 on both sides of the '='.

1295 × p = 714

p = 714 ÷ 1295

p = <span>0.55135135135...

p </span>× 100 = actual percentage

actual percentage = 55.14%

The table represents an exponential function.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

b=2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The table is given as:

$\left|\begin{array}{c|c}x&y\\--&--\\1&9\\2&6\\3&4\\4&\dfrac83\\\\5&\dfrac{16}{9}\end{array}\right|$

The exponential function is given in the form

$y= a (b)^{x}$

where a is the initial value and b is the multiplicative rate of change

When x=1, y=9, we have:

$9= a (b)^{1}$

When x=3, y=4, we have:

$4= a (b)^{3}$

Dividing the two equations:

$\dfrac{a (b)^{3}}{a (b)^{1}} =\dfrac{4}{9} \\b^2=\dfrac{4}{9}\\b=\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{9}} \\b=\dfrac{2}{3}$

The multiplicative rate of change, b is 2/3.

Hi there! The answer is 15/8.

The general formula for the tangent is
$\tan(m) = \frac{opposite}{adjecent}$

When we fill in the data from the picture, we get the following:
$\tan(m) = \frac{15}{8}$
