Answer:

825

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of students who participated in the sport be x, which is equivalent to 0.825

The total number of students in the school is equivalent to 1

Expressing mathematically,we obtain

0.825:x=1:1000

\implies  \frac{0.825}{x}= \frac{1}{1000}

By cross multiplying we obtain,

x=0.825 \times 1000

We finally simplify to arrive at

x=825

Hence the number of students who participated in the sport is 825

Answer:

825 students

Step-by-step explanation:

When we say 0.825 students participate, we are actually meaning that 82.5% of the students are participating.

<u>Note:</u> to get decimal to percentage, we move the decimal 2 places right

In total there are 1000 students, so we need to find 82.5% of them to find the number who participate in a sport.

<u>Note:</u> To get this, we need to multiply 1000 by the DECIMAL of 82.5%, which is 0.825.

Hence, we have 1000 * 0.825 = 825 students

WHat is the missing height?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

w = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that the area of a triangle is given by

A = (1/2) x base length x height

we are given:

A = 10 cm²

base length = 5 cm

height = w

substituting the values above into the equation,

A = (1/2) x base length x height

10 = (1/2) x 5 x w

20 = 5w

w = 20/5

w = 4 cm

URGENT!! 25 points. help on C please. this assignment is already late
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

7+(11-4\times 2)=10

Step-by-step explanation:

So, this question involves you to play around with the numbers and the operations a bit. I've come up with a solution, but perhaps there are others as well.

So, we have:

7\text{ } 11\text{ } 4\text{ } 2\text{ } =\text{ } 10

So, what we can do is, for instance, multiply 4 and 2. Subtract that into 11. And then add the difference to 7. Thus:

7+(11-4\times 2)=10

This is a true number sentence. Let's do it to make sure.

First, do the operations inside the parentheses.

Multiplication comes first, so multiply:

7+(11-8)=10

Again, do the parentheses first. Subtract:

7+(3)=10

Now add:

10=10

So our answer is correct :)

it is greater than because when you multiply 8 by 3 you get 24

and you get the 3 because 3 feet make 1 yard.

Jasmine had a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting for her birthday .she and her friend each ate 1/4 of the cake and jasmine's
zloy xaker [14]
Hey there!

To solve this problem, you first would need to solve for how much of the cake is left after Jasmine, her friend, and Jasmine's brother got their slices. Then, you would need to split the remaining amount in half to get the answer of what each parent ate. We would need to make all of the denominators the same, so let's make all of the fractions out of 12, a common denominator of 3 and 4. 

\frac{12}{12} - \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{3}
\frac{12}{12} - \frac{3}{12} - \frac{3}{12} - \frac{4}{12}
\frac{12}{12} - \frac{10}{12} = \frac{2}{12}

It can then be concluded that each parent ate \frac{1}{12} of the cake, since there was \frac{2}{12} remaining. 

You can check this answer by adding up all of the parts we used in this problem:

\frac{3}{12} + \frac{3}{12} + \frac{4}{12} +  \frac{1}{12} +  \frac{1}{12} = \frac{12}{12}

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Between which two consecutive whole numbers does \sqrt{3} 3 ​ lie? Fill out the sentence below to justify your answer and use yo
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

It lies between 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Two consecutive numbers are numbers that come after each other:

x , x + 1 are consecutive numbers.

3 \sqrt{3} = 3√3 = 5.19615242271

Therefore, from the above calculation, we can see that square root of 3 is a number that is between consecutive numbers 5 and 6
