Area and percent . ​
siniylev [52]

Answer:

a. 61.92 in²

b. 21.396 ≈ 21.4%

c. $4.71

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Amount of waste = area of rectangular piece of stock - area of two identical circles cut out

Area of rectangular piece of stock = 24 in × 12 in = 288 in²

Area of the two circles = 2(πr²)

Use 3.14 as π

radius = ½*12 = 6

Area of two circles = 2(3.14*6²) = 226.08 in²

Amount of waste = 288 - 226.08 = 61.92 in²

b. % of the original stock wasted = amount of waste ÷ original stock × 100

= 61.92/288 × 100 = 6,162/288 = 21.396 ≈ 21.4%

c. 288 in² of the piece of stock costs $12.00,

Each cut-out circle of 113.04 in² (226.08/2) will cost = (12*113.04)/288

= 1,356.48/288 = $4.71.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The amount of mango juice needed is 8 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of mango juice needed, we will need to know the amount used the previous week.

Cranberry juice to Mango juice is 3:2 with cranberry used being 4 quarts. Let the quarts of Mango juice used be x

This means;

3/2 = 4/x

1.5 = 4/x

1.5x = 4

x = 4/1.5 quarts

Since they are making 3 times as much punch, the amount of mango juice needed will be 4/1.5 * 3 = 4 * 2 = 8 quarts
