Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

W=2L-2

A=72

LW=72

L(2L-2) = 72

2L^2 -2L= 72

2L^2 -2L-72=0

L^2 - L -36 = 0

L= -5.52 or 6.52(neg # not a solution)

W=11.04

L=6.52

DIAG = $\sqrt{11.04^2+6.52^2}$ = 12.82

Use a Venn diagram to answer the question. A survey of 180 families showed that 67 had a dog; 52 had a cat; 22 had a dog and a

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

There are 13 families had a parakeet only

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the problem

- There are 180 families

- 67 families had a dog

- 52 families had a cat

- 22 families had a dog and a cat

- 70 had neither a cat nor a dog, and in addition did not have a

parakeet

- 4 had a cat, a dog, and a parakeet (4 is a part of 22 and 22 is a part

of 67 and 520

* We will explain the Venn-diagram

- A rectangle represent the total of the families

- Three intersected circles:

C represented the cat

D represented the dog

P represented the parakeet

- The common part of the three circle had 4 families

- The common part between the circle of the cat and the circle of the

dog only had 22 - 4 = 18 families

- The common part between the circle of the dog and the circle of the

parakeet only had a families

- The common part between the circle of the cat and the circle of the

parakeet only had b families

- The non-intersected part of the circle of the dog had 67 - 22 - a =

45 - a families

had dogs only

- The non-intersected part of the circle of the cat had 52 - 22 - b =

30 - b families

had cats only

- The non-intersected part of the circle of the parakeet had c families

had parakeets only

- The part out side the circles and inside the triangle has 70 families

- Look to the attached graph for more under stand

∵ The total of the families is 180

∴ The sum of all steps above is 180

∴ 45 - a + 18 + 4 + 30 - b + b + c + a + 70 = 180 ⇒ simplify

- (-a) will cancel (a) and (-b) will cancel (b)

∴ (45 + 18 + 4 + 30 + 70) + (-a + a) + (-b + b) + c = 180

∴ 167 + c = 180 ⇒ subtract 167 from both sides

∴ c = 180 - 167 = 13 families

* There are 13 families had a parakeet only

A rocking horse has a weight limit of 60pounds. What percentage of the weight limit is 33 pounds? What percentage of the weight

bixtya [17]

Answer:

The percentage is 55% when weight limit is 33 pounds.

The percentage is 190% when weight limit is 114 pounds.

The 95% of the limit weighs 57 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight limit of rocking horse = 60 pounds.

We need to find:

a) What percentage of the weight limit is 33 pounds.

b)What percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.

c) What weight is 95% of the limit.

Now Solving for a we get;

Weight limit = 33 pounds

Now percentage of the weight limit can be calculated by dividing given weight limit with total weight limit and then multiplying by 100 we get;

framing in equation form we get;

percentage of the weight limit = $\frac{33}{60}\times100 = 55\%$

Hence The percentage is 55% when weight limit is 33 pounds.

Now Solving for b we get;

Weight limit = 114 pounds

Now percentage of the weight limit can be calculated by dividing given weight limit with total weight limit and then multiplying by 100 we get;

framing in equation form we get;

percentage of the weight limit = $\frac{114}{60}\times100 = 190\%$

Hence The percentage is 190% when weight limit is 114 pounds.

Now Solving for c we get;

Percentage Weight = 95%

Now Amount of weight limit can be calculated by multiplying Percentage weight limit with total weight limit and then Dividing by 100 we get;

framing in equation form we get;

percentage of the weight limit = $\frac{95}{100}\times60 = 57 \pounds$

Hence The 95% of the limit weighs 57 pounds.
