Answer

7.5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Since adding x grams of salt will bring th percentage of the salt to 25

Hence. 10% of the 50 gram gives. 5 gram initial salt before it is added.

5+ x/ 50 * 100= 25/

5+x /50 = 0.25

5+x = 12.5

X= 12.5- 5

X= 7.5pounds

Answer:

120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached is a screenshot.

y = 180 - 50 - 70 = 60.

x + y = 180, so x = 120

Remember to try to use parallel lines when you can

The second uses the same method, just the opposite side.

The result of rounding the whole number 2,746,052 to the nearest hundred thousands place is:
Rasek [7]
The answer would be 2,700,000.
This is because of the rules of rounding.
If a digit is 4 or smaller, it rounds down.
If a digit is 5 or more, it rounds up.
The number is 2, 746, 052 so it stays at 700,000.

TLDR: 2,700,000

Assume the radius of a circle is
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They want you to see how radius is important.  Just remember that one radian is one radius,  that should help  you see why radius is important.

They ask for the unit circle ,  that is a circle of one unit for the radius,  which makes it super easy to calculate things for it,  they ask what is the area, which is that famous formula, πr^{2} ,  then they ask what's its circumference.  which is that other famous formula  2πr

so to go all the way around a circle of one unit radius,  it's  2π  exactly or about 6.28..... units,   call it meters, or feet or inches, it doesn't mater here.

the size of the circle doesn't matter here either,  b/c we are using the radius ,  that relaationship doesn't change ,  all circles,  what ever size , have this same relationship between the radius and radians.    :P  this is handy.
