Answer:

110

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate or proportion shows the relationship between the variation in the  number of two variables.

Given that the ratio of alternative songs to total songs is 9:14.

Total songs = 308

Since the to every 14 total songs, there is 9 alternative songs.

Thus,

Number of alternative songs = \frac{9}{14} x 308

                                                = 198

There are 198 alternative songs in the music library.

The number of songs that are NOT alternative songs = 308 - 198

                                                                                         = 110

Thus, there are 110 songs that are NOT alternative songs.

aleksley [76]

Answer:

6 $1 bills, 5 $5 bills

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the student has x $1 bills.

Then they have 11 - x $5 bills.

31 = 1 * x + (11 - x) * 5 = 55 - 4x

4x = 55 - 31 = 24

x = 6

So, they have 6 $1 bills and 11 - 6 = 5 $5 bills

1. A boat is 18 ft away from a point perpendicular to the shoreline. A person stands at a point down the shoreline so that a 68°
slega [8]

Answer:

19.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating distances using perpendicular angles, we use trig functions such as Sin, Cos, and Tan.

  • Sine is defined in a perpendicular triangle as the ratio of the opposite side to the angle over the hypotenuse.
  • Cosine is defined in a perpendicular triangle as the ratio of the adjacent side to the angle over the hypotenuse.
  • Tangent is defined in a perpendicular triangle as the ratio of the opposite side over the adjacent side.

Because our angle and know side value are across from each other and we need to know the hypotenuse, we chose to use Sine.

We set up the equation sin (68) = \frac{18}{h}.

We isolate h by multiplying h across the equal sign and dividing sin (68) across as well. sin (68) = \frac{18}{h}\\hsin (68) = \frac{18}{h}*h\\hsin (68) = 18\\\frac{hsin (68)}{sin (68)} =\frac{18}{sin (68)} \\

And finally we have h=\frac{18}{sin (68)}. We input to calculator.

h=\frac{18}{0.92718} \\h=19.4 feet

See the attached picture below showing the shore with the boat out at sea and the position of the person.

aniked [119]

Answer:

25.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Purchase price = $250 / share

Jan - feb : 38% decrease

(100 - 38)% * 250 = $155

February - March : 20% increase

(100 + 20)% * $155

120% * $155 = $186

Percentage decrease from January to March :

[(250 - 186) / 250] * 100%

(64 / 250) * 100%

0.256 * 100%

25.6%
