What is your yield percent?

Mathematics
1 answer:
lana66690 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is - 45.56%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

chicken weighs = 31 lbs

left clean meat = 14 lbs and 2 oz or 14+2/16

Formula:

A reasonable assumption for the definition of 'yield percent' is :

= (lbs of edible product) / (lbs of product as-purchased) * 100%

Solution:

Putting the values in the given formula:

= (14 + 2/16) / (31) * 100

= 14.125 / 31 * 100

 = 45.56%  (or 45.6% when rounded to one decimal place).

Which set of numbers could represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The first set: 8, 15, and 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Pair: 8, 15, 17</h3>

By the pythagorean theorem, a triangle is a right triangle if and only if

\text{longest side}^2 = \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2.

In this case,

\text{longest side}^2 = 17^2 = 289.

\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 8^2 + 15^2\\ &=64 + 225 = 289 \end{aligned}.

In other words, indeed \text{hypotenuse}^2 = \text{first leg}^2 + \text{second leg}^2. Hence, 8, 15, 17 does form a right triangle.

Similarly, check the other pairs. Keep in mind that the square of the longest side should be equal to the sum of the square of the two

<h3>Pair: 10, 15, 20</h3>

Factor out the common factor 2 to simplify the calculations.

\text{longest side}^2 = 20^2 = 400

\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 10^2 + 15^2\\ &=100 + 225 = 325 \end{aligned}.

\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2.

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

<h3>Pair: 12, 18, 22</h3>

\text{longest side}^2 = (2\times 11)^2 = 2^2 \times 121.

\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= (2 \times 6)^2 + (2 \times 9)^2\\ &=2^2 \times(36 + 81) = 2^2 \times 117 \end{aligned}.

\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2.

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

<h3>Pair: 7, 9, 11</h3>

\text{longest side}^2 = 11^2 = 121.

<h3>\begin{aligned}&\text{first shortest side}^2 + \text{second shortest side}^2 \\ &= 7^2 + 9^2\\ &=49+ 81 = 130 \end{aligned}.</h3>

\text{longest side}^2 \ne \text{first shorter side}^2 + \text{second shorter side}^2.

Hence, by the pythagorean theorem, these three sides don't form a right triangle.

A book exhibition was held for four days in a schoolthe number of tickets sold at the counter on the first secend third and four
bija089 [108]

Answer:

7707 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we know that:

the number of tickets sold at the counter on

First day = 1094 tickets

Second day = 1812 tickets

Third day = 2050 tickets

Fourth day = 2751 tickets

The total number of tickets sold on all the four days is calculated as:

(1094 + 1812 + 2050 + 2751)tickets

= 7707 tickets
