Answer:

He has won 28 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he wins 80% of the games he pitched, we need to find 80% of 35.

80% as a decimal is 0.8.

$0.8 * 35 = 2.8$

Now we need to convert the product to a whole number.

$2.8 * 10= 28$

80% of 35 is 28.

The baseball player won 28 games he pitched in.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The lateral area is 392.5 sq. inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pipe is in a shape of a cylinder. The lateral area formula for a cylinder is:

Lateral Area = $2\pi r h$

Where

r is the radius (half of diameter)

h is the height

Given, diameter = 5

so,

radius = 5/2 = 2.5

Also,

height = 25 inches (same as length, here)

Now we use 3.14 for $\pi$ and substitute the values to get the lateral area:

Lateral Area = $2\pi r h = 2(3.14)(2.5)(25)=392.5$

The lateral area is 392.5 sq. inches.

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you need to find the scale factor. This is done through cross multiplying proportions. In this instance, you have to cross multiply x/4 by 3.5/7. When you multiply x and 7, you get 7x. When you multiply 3.5 and 4, you get 14. Simplify by isolating the variable, and you get 2.
