We have, This morning 340 guests at a hotel requested room service if there are 500 guests in the hotel. It is required to find the percent of guests requested room service this morning.

Percentage is given by :

$P=\dfrac{500-340}{500}\times 100\\\\P=32\%$

So, 32% of the guests requested room service this morning.

Mary stated that 2.01 x 10⁶ is less than 4.8 x 10⁴ because 2.01 is less than 4.8. what was mary's mistake ?

katrin [286]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is always written as a number between 1 and 9.9999999 repeating. There follows a power of 10. I'm not sure which answer would help you see it clearer but

4.8 * 10^4 the decimal is shifted 4 places the right which is 48000 where you have no numbers, you use zeros.

2.01 * 10^6 means that you shift the decimal 6 places to the right.

2010000

So 2 million is larger than 48 thousand.

The other way to do it is just to look at the power. 6 is more than 4. 6 describes the number of places you move. So does 4. 6>4 so that's the larger number.

If 4 daps = 7 yaps, and 5 yaps = 3 baps, how many daps equal 42 baps? **GIVING OUT BRAINLIEST**

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

40 daps

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say daps is d, yaps are y and baps are b

4d = 7y, 5y=3b

First convert to y

4/7d = y

Now convert that to b

5(4d/7) = 3b

20d / 7 = 3b

20d / 21 = b

Plug it in:

42(20d/21)

40d

aka 40 daps

Solve by using Pythagorean Theorem, a= 5, b= x-1, and c=x

charle [14.2K]

The value of x is 13, from the values of x the values of a,b and c becomes 5, 12 and 13, which is obtained by using Pythagorean theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

a = 5

b = x - 1

c = x

Step:1

Pythagorean theorem is,

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$ ................................(1)

( It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides )

From the given values the equation (1) becomes,

$5^{2} + (x-1) ^{2} = x^{2}$

( $(a-b)^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} -2ab$ )

25 + ( $x^{2}$ + 1 - 2x ) = $x^{2}$

25 + 1 -2x = 0 ( ∵ Eliminate $x^{2}$ in both sides)

26 = 2x

x = 13

Step:2

From the values of x,

a = 5

b = ( 13 - 1 ) = 12

c = 13

Result:

The value of x is 13, from the values of x the values of a,b and c becomes 5, 12 and 13, which is obtained by using Pythagorean theorem.

Find the length of the height of the right trapezoid shown below, if it has the greatest possible area and its perimeter is equa

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The height of the right trapezoid is $\frac{6}{5+\sqrt{3}}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the height of the right trapezoid in units

we know that

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

$P=AB+BC+CD+DH+HA$

we have

$P=6\ units$

$AB=BC=CH=HA=x$ ---> because is a square

substitute

$6=x+x+CD+DH+x$

$6=3x+CD+DH$ -----> equation A

<em>In the right triangle CDH</em>

$sin(30\°)=\frac{CH}{CD}$

$sin(30\°)=\frac{1}{2}$

so

Remember that $CH=x$

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{CD}$

$CD=2x$

$tan(30\°)=\frac{CH}{DH}$

$tan(30\°)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

so

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}=\frac{x}{DH}$

$DH=x\sqrt{3}$

substitute the values in the equation A

$6=3x+CD+DH$ -----> equation A

$CD=2x$

$DH=x\sqrt{3}$

$6=3x+2x+x\sqrt{3}$

$6=5x+x\sqrt{3}$

$6=x[5+\sqrt{3}]$

$x=\frac{6}{5+\sqrt{3}}\ units$
