Answer:

The answer to your question is: 12 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Lion v = 75 ft/s

wildebeest = 66 ft/s and is 108 feet behind the lion

t = time = ?

Formula

v = d/ t    solve for d   d = vt

Process

lion      d = 75t

wildebeest =   d = 108 + 66t

Now

                    75t = 108 + 66t

solve for t     75t - 66t = 108

                     9t = 108

                       t = 12 s

In the contiguous United States, the ratio of states that border an ocean to states that do not border an ocean is 7:9. How many
Luda [366]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

The contiguous U.S. consist of all states beside Alaska and Hawaii; therefore, there are 48 contiguous U.S. states. However, the ratio given to us only consists of 16 states [7 + 9 = 16]. If we need to expand the ratio, we multiply 16 by 3 to get 48. Thus, we also multiply each of the terms by 3, and the ratio becomes 21:27. Therefore, the number of contiguous U.S. states that border an ocean is 21.

4) Arnold ate breakfast at a restaurant. His total came to $76.75. There is an 8% sales tax and 15% tip. What is Arnold's total
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The total cost is $95.32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total came to $76.75. There is an 8% sales tax and 15% tip.

Now, to find the total cost.

<em>8% sales tax is there so we calculate the amount after adding sales tax:</em>

$76.75 + 8% of $76.75

76.75+\frac{8}{100}\times 76.75

76.75+0.08\times 76.75

76.75+6.14

82.89

The cost after sales tax is $82.89.

Now, <em>the cost after 15% tip:</em>

$82.89 + 15% of $82.89

82.89+\frac{15}{100}\times 82.89

82.89+0.15\times 82.89

82.89+12.43

95.32

The cost after the tip is $95.32.

Therefore, the total cost is $95.32.
