Answer:

The truck is hauling 3/4 of a full load

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

2/3 ton of gravel represent the 100% of a full load

Find out how much of a full load the truck is hauling with 1/2 ton of gravel, using proportion

Let

x ----> the percentage of a full load

\frac{(2/3)}{100\%}=\frac{(1/2)}{x}\\\\x=100\%(1/2)/(2/3)\\\\x=100\%(3/4)\\\\x=75\%

Convert to fraction number

75\%=\frac{75}{100}=\frac{3}{4}

therefore

The truck is hauling 3/4 of a full load

The life of a battery in critical tool is at = 32 hours

Ambell uses 70% of its batteries from manufacturer 1 and out of that 90% batteries lasts for about 40 hours.

Similarly, 75% of the batteries procured from the manufacturer 2 lasts for about 40 hours.

Therefore, the probability that a battery is form manufacturer 1 is :

there are 49 dogs signed up for the dog show. there are 36 more small dogs than large dogs. how many small dogs are signed up fo
pogonyaev
Okay, so total dogs are 49.
So we know if x=large dogs and y=small dogs, then x+y=49.
Next we are told that there are 36 MORE small dogs than large dogs. We can take that more meaning addition, and x being our value for large dogs. So y=x+36.
After that we now know what value we can plug in for y. So x+x+36=49.
We can then simplify it to 2x+36=49.
Subtracting the 36 from both sides, leaves you with 2x=13.
Followed by dividing both sides by 2, gives you x=6.5. Or 6.5 large dogs.
Now we can plug this into our formula for the small dogs (y=x+36) to give us y=6.5+36, which simplifies to y=42.5. Or 42.5 small dogs. Which is our answer.
We can double check it by adding the small and large dogs together, 6.5+42.5, which gives us 49, our total entries.
