Answer:

The sample would double in 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation

The number of hours it will take for the sample to double can be found using the 72 rule.

The 72 rule is such that a growth rate would double itself by it is used in dividing the number 72 as shown below:

number of hours =72/8=9 hours

The number of hours it would take the sample to double is 9 hours as computed above.

1) Suppose a rhombus has 12 cm sides and a 30° angle. Find the distance between the pair of opposite sides.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

1) 6 cm

2) 117°

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Draw a picture of the rhombus.  The distance between opposite sides is the height of the rhombus.  If we draw the height at the vertex, we get a right triangle.  Using trigonometry:

sin 30° = h / 12

h = 12 sin 30°

h = 6 cm

2) Draw a picture of the rectangle.

∠KML is the angle the diagonal makes with the shorter side ML.  This angle is 54°.  ∠NKM is the angle the diagonal makes with the shorter side NK.  ∠KML and ∠NKM are alternate interior angles, so m∠NKM = 54°.

The angle bisector of angle ∠NKM divides the angle into two equal parts and intersects the longer side NM at point P.  So m∠PKM = 27°.

KLMN is a rectangle, so it has right angles.  That means ∠KML and ∠KMN are complementary.  So m∠KMN = 36°.

We now know the measures of two angles of triangle KPM.  Since angles of a triangle add up to 180°, we can find the measure of the third angle:

m∠KPM + 36° + 27° = 180°

m∠KPM = 117°

A card game has 50 cards. After dealing 7 cards to each player, tupi has 15 cards left over. solve the equation
KIM [24]
50 - 15 = 35

35 ÷ 7 = 5

So there were 5 players and your equation would be:-

50 - 15 ÷ x = 5

x = 7

Help its lateee and i suck at this
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1.  Identify the problem: Packaging boxes use too much material and create waste

2. What are the equations for the volume and surface area of a cube and rectangular prism?

Volume of a cube: Vcube = L x L x L = L3

Surface area of a cube: SAcube = 6 x (L x L) = 6L2

Volume of a rectangular prism: VRP = L x W x H = LWH

Surface area of a rectangular prism: SARP = 2 x (L x W) + 2 x (L x H) + 2 x (W x H) = 2(LW + LH + WH)

3. What is the difference in surface area of the packages below? (Note that they have the same volume.)

SAcube = 6L2

= 6 (20 cm)2

= 2,400 cm2

SARP = 2(LW + LH + WH) = 2 (20cm x 10cm + 20cm x 40cm + 10cm x 40cm) = 2,800 cm2

SARP – SAcube = 2,800 cm2

– 2,400cm2

= 400 cm
