Answer:

Each students provides 13 pounds of meal

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students in Ms. Lee class = 220

Total pounds of food collected = 2,860

how many meals did each student provide?

Meals provided by each student = Total pounds of food collected / total number of students

= 2,860 / 220

= 13 pounds

Each students provides 13 pounds of meal

Note: 1.2 pounds of food equals one meal

1.2 pounds : 1 meal = 13 pounds : x meals

1.2/1 = 13/x

1.2 * x = 1 * 13

1.2x = 13

x = 13 / 1.2

= 10.83 meals

Approximately 11 meals to the nearest number

Note:1 kilogram is 2.2 pounds

1 kg : 2.2 pounds = x kg : 13 pounds

1/2.2 = x / 13

1 * 13 = 2.2 * x

13 = 2.2x

x = 13/2.2

= 5.91 kilogram

Approximately x = 6 kilograms

QUESTION 4 of 10: Your average weekly take home wage is $615. You take a one-week paid vacation and a second week unpaid vacati
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

$45

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to calculate the income of this year.

We know that a year has 52 weeks. And, our payed weeks are 51, they are, the 50 weeks we work plus the one week of paid-vacation. The remaining week does not give us income, as is unpaid. So our total year income is:

51 * $615 = $31,365

So, our surplus will be our income minus our expenses:

Surplus = $31,365 - $31,320 = $45

Our cash surplus is $45

Problem page the length of a rectangle is four times its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 70 cm , find its area.
agasfer [191]
So we can call the width of the rectangle x.
So then the length would be 4x.
The perimeter would then be 10x.
Since the perimeter is 70, we can say 70 = 10x.
And then simplify that to 7 = x.
So the length of a rectangle would be 28 cm, and the width would be 7.
So to find the area, just multiply length by width.
28*7 = 196 square cm
So the rectangle's area is 196 square cm.

I hope I helped!

If QT is 9 and TP is 8 Find the length of the following:<br><br>RP<br>RT<br>RS​
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

i. RP = 17

ii. RT = 15

iii. RS = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that; QT = 9 and TP = 8.

From the diagram, join R to P. Thus RP = QP (radius of the circle)

                        RP = QT + TP

                             = 9 + 8

                         RP = 17

Applying Pythagoras theorem to triangle TRP;

             RT = \sqrt{(RP)^{2} - (TP)^{2} }

                  = \sqrt{17^{2} - 8^{2} }

                 = \sqrt{225}

                 = 15

∴           RT = 15

But, RT = TS = 15.

So that;

       RS = 15 + 15

             = 30

        RS = 30

Therefore;  RP = 17, RT = 15 and RS = 30.
