Given:

Number of tomatoes Sheldon picks = 4\dfrac{4}{10} kg

Rotten tomatoes = 1.5 kg

To find:

How many kilograms of tomatoes were not rotten?

Solution:

Number of tomatoes Sheldon picks = 4\dfrac{4}{10} kg

                                                            = \dfrac{4(10)+4}{10} kg

                                                            = \dfrac{40+4}{10} kg

                                                            = \dfrac{44}{10} kg

                                                            = 4.4 kg

Rotten tomatoes = 1.5 kg

Remaining tomatoes which are not rotten is

Required tomatoes = Tomatoes Sheldon picks - Rotten tomatoes

                                = 4.4-1.5

                                = 2.9 kg

Therefore, the tomatoes which were not rotten is 2.9 kg.

In the diagram, point P is a point of tangency. Find the radius r of circle O.​
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

r = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

QP is a tangent to the circle O at the point P.

Therefore, by the property of tangency,

OP ⊥ QP

By applying Pythagoras theorem In right triangle QPO,

(Hypotenuse)² = (Leg 1)² + (Leg 2)²

(OQ)² = (OP)² + (PQ)²

(25 + r)² = (35)² + r²

625 + r² + 50r = 1225 + r²

50r = 1225 - 625

50r = 600

r = 12

Therefore, r = 12 units is the answer.

In circle D with m \angle CDE= 122m∠CDE=122 and CD=6CD=6 units, find the length of arc CE. Round to the nearest hundredth.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

12.78 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arc length =

2πr × θ/360

From the question:

θ = 122°

r = 6 units

Therefore, the arc length =

2 × π × 6 × (122/360)

= 12.775810125 units

Approximately to the nearest hundredth = 12.78 units

Therefore, the length of arc CE is 12.78 units

Rachel was an 85 average after four test. what does she need to earn on the next test if she wants to raise her average to exact
irakobra [83]

she took four tests with one more to take totals 5 tests

 88 x 5 = 440

 all her tests need to equal at least 440 to get an 88 average

since she has 85 average after 4, 85*4 = 340, so her 4 tests so far have equaled 340

440-340 = 100

 she will need to get a 100 on her 5th test to have an 88 average
