Answer:

The mom ate 49 fish.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a rule of three.

a mother otter is fed 7 fish for every 2 fish for its cub

if  a cub has eaten 14 fish , how many fish did the mother eat ?

For each 2 fish cub eats, the mon eats 7. How much has the mom eaten if the cub has eaten 14?

So

2 - 7

14 - x

2x = 14*7

Simplifying by 2

x = 7*7

x = 49

The mom ate 49 fish.

Find the area of the polygon. A = __ft squared
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

28.5^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is, b(base)+c(height)= b+c over 2.  b+c/2.

B=19ft in this problem.

C=38ft

Knowing this, we can further simplify.

19+38/2

Now, we add 19 and 38.

(57)

57/2= 28.5

So, the anwser is 28.5^2

given

A coat at a store is originally priced at $54.99

The store marks down the price down to $32.99

Required

the percent decrease

A. 25,600π in3<br><br><br><br> B. 10,240π in3<br><br><br><br> C. 1280π in3<br><br><br> D. 640π in3
NeX [460]

Answer: The correct answer is B; 10,240π in³

Step-by-step explanation: To calculate the volume of a cylinder, the given formular is

Volume = π r² h, where

radius (r) = 16

height (h) = 40

Pi (π) = 3.14

It is important to take note that in questions like these, the value of pi is usually given as 3.14 or 22/7. However, for this particular question, the answer should be expressed in terms of pi, (that is, the answer must include pi). For that reason we shall leave pi as it is, and we shall not use it's value when applying the formular.

Therefore, inserting the values of radius, height and pi into our formular, we now have;

Volume = π r² h

Volume = π x 16² x 40

Volume = π x 256 x 40

Volume = π x 10,240

Therefore the exact volume of the cylinder = 10,240π in³

The cheapest available ticket for Super Bowl Ll on the secondary market costs
drek231 [11]

Answer:

He must work 52 days to pay for a single ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using proportions.

Per hour:

Joel earns $7.25 per hour, 20% of which is deducted for taxes. So without taxes, in each hour, he earns 100%-20% of 80% of this, so 0.8*7.25 = $5.8.

Per day:

He works 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, so 8 hours a day.

For each hour, he earns $5.8.

So in a day, he makes 8*5.8 = $46.4

How many days he must work:

The ticket costs $2400.

He makes $46.4 a day.

So, to buy a ticket, he needs to work:

2400/46.4 = 51.7 days

Rounding up

He must work 52 days to pay for a single ticket.
