Answer:

20% of a spig is a spug.

Step-by-step explanation:

Spig = I

Spoog = O

Speeg = E

Spug = U

.4I = O

.25E = O

.7E = U

1I = 5 U To get the percentage of spigs we divideeach side by 5 to get spugs.

1 I / 5 = 5 U / 5

1/5 I = U

1/5 = .2 = 20%

.2I = U

20% of a spig is a spug.

There are a total of 100 balloons. If the ratio of yellow balloons to blue balloons is 8 to 12, how many of them are yellow

Ivanshal [37]

If you have 8 yellow balloons for every 12 blue balloons, then if you have 20 balloons in total, 8 out of 20 of those balloons will be yellow. Then you can set up this ratio:

$\frac{8yellow}{20total} = \frac{Xyellow}{100total}$

Then, you can use either cross multiplication or multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number to help solve for x. Personally, I prefer cross multiplication, so that's what I'll show you here:

$\frac{8yellow}{20total} = \frac{Xyellow}{100total} \\ 8yellow*100total=20total*Xyellow$

Finally, solve for x:

$8yellow*100total=20total*Xyellow \\ 8*100=20*x \\ 800=20x \\ 800/20=20x/20 \\ x=40yellow$

If you had 100 balloons, you will have 40 yellow balloons.

Hope this helps!!

Lorene plans to make several open-topped boxes in which to carry plants. She makes the boxes from rectangular sheets of cardboar

Answer:

29 feet in length, 5 feet in width and 12 feet in height

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that for the volume of a quadrangular prism is:

V = l * w * h

Ie length times width times height

In this case, the height is determined by the squares that you put in each corner, taking into account that a square has all the same sides, the height is 12 inches. h = 12

they tell us that the length is 24 inches more than the width, that is, l = 24 + w

replacing we have:

1740 = (24 + w) * w * 12

1740 = 12 * w ^ 2 + 288 * w

12 * w ^ 2 + 288 * w - 1740 = 0

if we calculate the root, we have w = 5 or w = -29

only works when w = 5

Thus:

l = 24 + 5

l = 29

which means that the dimensions are:

29 feet in length, 5 feet in width and 12 feet in height
