Work out 77 % of 775.66 m Give your answer rounded to 2 DP.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

597.25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find 77% of 775.66 m.

It can be calculated as follows :

$77\%\times 775.66\\\\=\dfrac{77}{100}\times 775.66\\\\=597.25\ m$

So, 77% of 775.66 m is equal to 597.25 m.

Of 560 marbles in a bag, 65% are red and the rest are blue. After 28 red marbles are replaced with blue ones, how many blue marb

jonny [76]

Answer: The answer is 400 blue marbles.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are 560 marbles in a bag, out of which 65% are red and rest are blue.

So, number of red marbles is

$n_r=65\%\times 560=\dfrac{65}{100}\times 560=364,$

and number of blue marbles is

$n_b=560-364=196.$

Now, if 28 red marbles are replaced by blue marbles, the the new number of red and blue marbles will be

$n_r^\prime=364-28=336~~~\textup{and}~~~n_b^\prime=196+28=224.$

Now, to get 65% of the marbles blue, we need to add some more blue marbles to the bag. Let 'x' number of blue marbles are added to the bag, then

$65\%\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{65}{100}\times (560+x)=224+x\\\\\Rightarrow 13(560+x)=20(224+x)\\\\\Rightarrow 7280+13x=4480+20x\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=2800\\\\\Rightarrow x=400.$

Thus, 400 blue marbles need to be added to the bag.

Find the area under the curve y = 27/x3 from x = 1 to x = t. Evaluate the area under this curve for t = 10, t = 100, and t = 100

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given is a function as

$y=\frac{27}{x^3}$

We are to find the area form x=1 to x=t

The curve from x=1 lies in the I quadratnt.

So area above x axis is to be calculated

Area = $\int\limits^t_1 {\frac{27}{x^3} } \, dx \\=\frac{-27}{2x^2} \\= \frac{-27}{2t^2}-\frac{-27}{2}\\=\frac{27}{2}(1-\frac{1}{t^2} )$

a) When t =10,

area = $\frac{27}{2} (1-\frac{1}{10^2} )\\= 13.365$

b) t=100

area = $\frac{27}{2} (1-\frac{1}{100^2} )\\= 13.49865$

c) t=10000

area = $\frac{27}{2} (1-\frac{1}{10000^2} )\\= 13.5$
