Answer:

75 students

Step-by-step explanation:

first write a ratio of the students asked to students dislike

40:30, 40 to 30, or 40/30

now simplify the ratio

4/3

now she asked 40 students, so we have to find out the unit rate

so we have to flip the fraction to 3/4 and then divided the top and bottom by 4

0.75/1

now multiply the top and bottom by 100

75/100

75 students

PRE ALGEBRA / PLEASE HELP!!||| How many kilometers is it from the main gate to the Manatee Springs? (Hint: to convert from yards
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

  • 6.04 km (per angle marks)
  • 5.36 km (per side hash marks)

Step-by-step explanation:

Going by the angle indicators, the ratios of corresponding sides of the similar triangles are ...

  x/2000 = 4200/3500

  x = 2000·6/5 = 2400 . . . . yards

Then the distance of interest is ...

  (2400 yd + 4200 yd)×(0.0009144 km/yd) = 6.6×.9144 km

  = 6.03504 km ≈ 6.04 km

_____

Going by the red hash marks, the ratios of corresponding sides of the similar triangles are ...

  x/2000 = 3500/4200

  x = 2000·(5/6) = 5000/3 . . . . yards

Then the distance of interest is ...

  (5000/3 + 4200) yd × 0.0009144 km/yd ≈ 5.36 km

_____

<em>Comment on the figure</em>

The usual geometry here is that the outside legs (opposite the vertical angles) are parallel, meaning that the angle indicators are the correct marks. It is possible, but unusual, for the red hash marks to be correct and the angle indicators to be mismarked. The red hash marks seem tentatively drawn, so seem like they're more likely to be the incorrect marks.

What is the domain of the function graphed below???? PLEASE HELP
Agata [3.3K]
You need to look at the x values when you calculate that.

There is a line which goes from -2 to 0. Another line at 0 to 4 and the last line is 7 to infinity.

You can combine the first two and get B) (-2, 4] and [7, infinity)

The area of the shaded segment is 100cm^2. Calculate the value of r.
Reil [10]
Hello, 

The formula for finding the area of a circular region is: A=  \frac{ \alpha *r^{2} }{2}

then:
A_{1} = \frac{80*r^{2} }{2}

With the two radius it is formed an isosceles triangle, so, we must obtain its area, but first we obtain the height and the base.

cos(40)= \frac{h}{r}  \\  \\ h= r*cos(40)\\ \\ \\ sen(40)= \frac{b}{r} \\ \\ b=r*sen(40)

Now we can find its area:
A_{2}=2* \frac{b*h}{2}  \\  \\ A_{2}= [r*sen(40)][r*cos(40)]\\  \\A_{2}= r^{2}*sen(40)*cos(40)

The subtraction of the two areas is 100cm^2, then:

A_{1}-A_{2}=100cm^{2} \\ (40*r^{2})-(r^{2}*sen(40)*cos(40) )=100cm^{2} \\ 39.51r^{2}=100cm^{2} \\ r^{2}=2.53cm^{2} \\ r=1.59cm

Answer: r= 1.59cm
