A man drove 16 mi directly east from his home, made a left turn at an intersection, and then traveled 5 mi north to his place of

work. If a road was made directly from his home to his place of work, what would its distance be to the nearest tenth of a mile?

Use the Pythagorean theorem.

Distance = sqrt(16^2 + 5^2)

Distance = sqrt(256 + 25)

Distance = sqrt(281)

Distance = 16.763

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 16.8 miles

George buys some first class and second class stamps to put on some letters. Each first class stamp costs 67p, and each second c
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

£191.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 4 = 5 parts

Divide 320 by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

320 ÷ 5 = 64 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus

4 parts = 4 × 64 = 256

Thus he bought 64 first class and 256 second class.

Cost = (64 × £0.67) + (256 × £0.58)

        = £42.88 + 148.48

        = £191.36

For the problem below, θ is a central angle in a circle of a radius r. Find the length of arc s cut off by θ.
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Here, we will use the formula from trigonometry which defines a radian

we know that an angle is a radian when the length of the radius of the circle is equal to the length of the arc formed

hence, if the radius is r and the arc is r, the angle (in radians) will be 1

if the radius is r and the arc is 2r, the angle in radians will be equal to:

length of arc / radius = 2r/r = 2 radians

I believe this will explain what is actually happening in these type of questions

So, the equation:

Θ(in radians) = s / r (where the length of arc is s and the radius is r)

π/4 = s / 12

s = 3π or 9.42 inches

One serving of Gooey Gushers provides 12% of the daily value of vitamin C. Tim ate 312 servings of Gooey Gushers.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

a) Given expression,

12% of 312

Since 100% of 312 = 312

⇒ 10% of 312 = 31.2,

⇒ 1% = 3.12

⇒ 2% = 2 × 3.12 = 6.24

So, 12% of 312 = 10% of 312 + 2% of 312

= 31.2 + 6.24

= 37.44

b) Given,

Total number of servings = 312,

The percentage of vitamin C in each serving = 12%,

Thus, the total amount of the vitamin C in 312 servings = 12% of 312

=\frac{12\times 312}{100}

=\frac{3744}{100}

= 37.44,

Hence, the question can be asked about the total amount of the vitamin C.
