Answer:

Minor earthquakes occurred in the country in the last​ year were<u> 2326</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In the last​ year, a total of 2727 earthquakes occurred in the country.

Of​ these, 85.3 % were minor tremors with magnitudes of 3.9 or less on the Richter scale.

Now, to find the minor earthquakes occured in the country last year.

<em>Total earthquakes occurred in the country = 2727.</em>

<em>The percent of minor earthquakes = 85.3%</em>.

Now, to get the number of minor earthquakes:

85.3% of 2727.

=\frac{85.3}{100} \times 2727.

=\frac{232613.1}{100}

=2326.131

<em>The number of minor earthquakes nearest whole number = 2326.</em>

Therefore, minor earthquakes occurred in the country in the last​ year were 2326.

Answer:

  • east 95 km
  • south 89 km

Step-by-step explanation:

SOH CAH TOA can remind you of the relationships between triangle measures. The distance east is the side of the right triangle that is opposite the angle, so is related to the hypotenuse (ship's travel distance) by the sine function.

  sin(43°) = (travel distance)/(distance east)

So, ...

  (distance east) = (travel distance)·sin(43°)

Likewise, the cosine function can be used to find the distance south.

Then we have ...

  east = (130 km)sin(43°) ≈ 95 km

  south = (130 km)cos(43°) ≈ 89 km

A traditional postage stamp has a width of 4/5 inches and a length of 9/10. What is the area of a traditional postage stamp?
Illusion [34]
4/5*9/10= 36/50 = 18/25

Just multiply the fractions straight across since area is length*height

Rearrange the formula I = √P/R for R.
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

A) R = P/I²

Step-by-step explanation:

I = √P/R

Square each side

I^2 = (√P/R)^2

I^2 = P/R

Multiply each side by R

I^2R =P/R * R

I^2R = P

Divide by I^2

I^2R / I^2 = P/ I^2

R = P/ I^2
