Given a side length if 18 inches, find the height of a stop sign rounded to the nearest tenth.

The formula for finding the height of an octagon from only one side is h=s(1 + the square root of 2). S is the length of one side. Your formula would be h=18(1 + the square root of 2).

h=18+18(the square root of 2)

h=18 + 25.4558

h=43.4558

Hope this helps!! :) And the decimal is rounded, just so you know ;). If your teacher likes everything in simplest radical form, then just don't convert the 18*the square root of 2 into a decimal and solve as you normally would.

A researcher claims that 90% of people trust DNA testing. In a survey of 100 people, 91 of them said that they trusted DNA testi
tatuchka [14]

You must know that % is a number out of 100.

Therefore given 91/100 trusted DNA surveying, we know as a percentage this is 91% from the equation below:

(91/100)*100=91

We can conclude that 1%=1 person.

Although the difference is only 1 (91-90=1), the actual proportion of people who trust DNA testing is larger than the 90% by 1%.

If the diameter of the sphere is increased by 20% . By what % does its curved surface area increase?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Curved surface area of sphere = 2πr × 2r=4πr^2;

The new diameter is 120/100 from the old diameter;

2R = (120/100)x(2r);

So, R = 1.2 x r;

Curved surface area of new sphere = 4πR^2 = 4π(1.2xr)^2= 4πr^2x1.44= curved surface of old sphere x (144%);

Finnaly, the increase is 44%.

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equivalent ratio it must be multiplied or divided by the same number.
