<h2>Addition</h2><h3>Concept</h3>

Add units together in order to reach a sum.

<h3>Utilization</h3>

In this problem, you are told to find the probability (or %) that someone owns either a dog, OR a cat. If they own both - then they do in fact own a dog or cat. So the formula is:

dog owners % + cat owners % + both owners %

Aka,

23 + 18 + 5 = 46

<h3>Answer</h3>

The answer is 46% of people own either a cat or a dog, because 23% + 18% + 5% is 46%.

Answer:

answer is 57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m<6= x - 8

m<7 = 2x - 7

We know

<6 + <7 = 180° [ being linear pair ]

x - 8 + 2x - 7 = 180°

3x - 15 = 180°

3x = 180° + 15°

3x = 195°

x = 195° / 3

x = 65°

Now

m<6= x - 8 = 65° - 8° = 57°

hope it helps :)

You are looking at a convention bid that requires 100,000 square feet of meeting space. You have one room at 200 ft x 200 ft, an
Alla [95]
The 2 rooms only add up to 45,000 square feet (150 x 150 x 2) and the larger room is only 40,000 square feet (200 x 200) so this only gives you 85,000 square feet (40,000 + 45,000) which is not enough for the 100,000.

The side length of the base of a square pyramid is 30 centimeters. The height of the pyramid is 45 centimeters.
puteri [66]

Answer:

volume = 13500 cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given pyramid, its volume can be determined by:

volume of pyramid = \frac{lwh}{3}

Where: l is the base length, w is the base width and h id the height of the pyramid.

For the given question, l 30 cm, w = 30 cm and h = 45 cm.

So that,

volume = \frac{30*30*45}{3}

            = \frac{40500}{3}

            = 13500

volume = 13500 cm^{3}

The volume of the pyramid is 13500 cm^{3}.

Three lines of crops in a garden form a triangular shape. Strawberries are planted in a 10 ft line and green beans are planted i
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

p = 19.18

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is illustrated using the attachment and will be solved using cosine formula

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bcCosA

<em>Let the strawberry side be s, the Green beans be b and the pumpkins be p.</em>

<em />

The cosine formula in this case is:

g^2 = s^2 + p^2 - 2spCosG

Where

s = 10

g = 18

The equation becomes

18^2 = 10^2 + p^2 - 2 * 10 * p * Cos\ 68

324 = 100 + p^2 - 20 * p * 0.375

324 = 100 + p^2 - 7.5p

Collect Like Terms

p^2 - 7.5p + 100 - 324 = 0

p^2 - 7.5p - 224 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

p = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Where

a = 1

b = -7.5

c = -224

p = \frac{-(-7.5)\±\sqrt{(-7.5)^2-4*1*-224}}{2*1}

p = \frac{7.5\±\sqrt{56.25+896}}{2}

p = \frac{7.5\±\sqrt{952.25}}{2}

p = \frac{7.5\± 30.86}{2}

p = \frac{7.5 + 30.86}{2} or p = \frac{7.5 - 30.86}{2}

p = \frac{38.36}{2} or p = \frac{-23.36}{2}

p = 19.18 or p = -11.68

But length can not be negative.

So:

p = 19.18
