The answer is A: 2:5. If there is 8 girls out of 20 children the ratio is 8:20, which can be simplified to 2:5. Hope this helps :)

Two cars, one going due east at 25 m / sec and the second going due south at 50/3 m / sec are traveling toward the intersection
valkas [14]

Answer:

30 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the distance from the first car to the intersection is x, and the distance from the second car to the intersection is y.

The distance between the cars can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

d² = x² + y²

Taking derivative with respect to time:

2d dd/dt = 2x dx/dt + 2y dy/dt

d dd/dt = x dx/dt + y dy/dt

We know that x = 200, dx/dt = -25, y = 150, and dy/dt = -50/3.

To find dd/dt, we still need to find d.

d² = x² + y²

d² = (200)² + (150)²

d = 250

Plugging everything in:

250 dd/dt = (200) (-25) + (150) (-50/3)

dd/dt = -30

The cars are approaching each other at a rate of 30 m/s at that instant.

Solve the following equation algebraically show the steps: <br><br><br> n/3 -5 = 5
Lana71 [14]

\longrightarrow{\green{   \: n = 30 }} 

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\red{:}}}}}

\frac{n}{3}  - 5 = 5

➼ \:  \frac{n}{3}  = 5 + 5

➼ \:  \frac{n}{3}  = 10

➼ \: n = 10 \times 3

➼ \: n = 30

Therefore, the value of n is 30.

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\blue{To\:verify}}{\blue{:}}}}}

\frac{30}{3}  - 5 = 5

✒ \: 10 - 5 = 5

✒ \: 5 = 5

✒ \: L.H.S.=R. H. S

Hence verified.

(Power and Energy) If electricity costs $0.09 per kilowatt hour, find the cost (in dollars) of running each of the following ele
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

a) $0.97

b) $0.16

c) $24.30

Step-by-step explanation:

$0.09 per kilowatt hour = $0.09/kWh

6h/day 30 days = 180h

a) 60W*180h = 10800 Wh = 10.8kWh

10.8kWh * $0.09/kWh = $0.97

b) P = V*I

V = 120V

I = 80mA = 80/1000 = 0.08A

P = 120*0.08 = 9.6W

9.6W*180h = 1728 Wh = 1.728kWh

1.728kWh * $0.09/kWh = $0.16

c) 1500W*180h = 270000 Wh = 270kWh

270kWh * $0.09/kWh = $24.30

The ceiling of Katie’s living room is a square that is 15 ft long on each side. To decorate for a party, she plans to hang crepe
goldfiish [28.3K]

I think that 3 rolls is wrong and that 6 rolls is right. If you create a 15 by 15 square and draw two lines through the center that connect to the opposite corner, you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.


Perimeter: 15+15+15+15=60ft.


Length of Line from Corner to Corner:

(15)(15)+(15)(15)=C^2

225+225=C^2

450=C^2

21.2=C

21.2(2)= 42.4ft.

42.4ft.+60ft.= 102.4ft.

102.4ft. divided by 20ft. = 5.12 = <u>6 rolls</u>
