Answer: The total number of colored papers is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The ratio of coloured papers to wight papers is 3:8.

Let total number of colored papers = 3x

and total number of wight papers = 8x

Since, there are 48 wight papers , then

$8x=48$

$\Rightarrow\ x=6$

Now , number of colored papers = 3(6)=18

Hence, the total number of colored papers is 18.

Find all real zeros of the function y= -9x - 1

Svetllana [295]

Answer: -1/9 which is <u>choice B</u>

Explanation:

The term "zeros" refers to the x intercepts.

Plug in y = 0 and solve for x.

y = -9x-1

0 = -9x - 1

9x = -1

x = -1/9

Please help!! I have tried it on my own and I am stuck

elena55 [62]

Answer:

1. 23.59 feet

2. 32.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. See the diagram attached.

The man is 11 feet distance from the bottom of the tree.

And the angle of elevation from the man to the top of the tree is 65°.

Now, we need to approximate the height of the tree,

Using the trigonometry, we can write

$\tan 65^{\circ} = \frac{\textrm {Height of the Tree}}{\textrm {Base Distance}} = \frac{h}{11}$

⇒ h = 11 tan 65° = 23.59 feet (Approx.) (Answer)

2. See the diagram attached.

From the given right triangle the hypotenuse is 25 feet and the base is 21 feet.

And the angle between the hypotenuse and the base is the pitch of the ram of a NASCAR turn.

Using trigonometry, we can write

$\cos \theta = \frac{\textrm {Base}}{\textrm {Hypotenuse}} = \frac{21}{25}$

⇒ $\theta = \cos^{-1}(\frac{21}{25}) = 32.9^{\circ}$ (Answer)

Deanna gets 3 problems incorrect on her math quiz and scores 85%. How many questions were on the quiz?

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

There were 20 questions on the quiz

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with knowing the number of questions on a quiz, given that Deana had a certain percentage after scoring an amount of marks.

We proceed as follows;

Let the number of questions on the quiz be X.

Now, she got 85% by making 3 incorrect choices. This means the percentage of questions she got incorrectly would be 100-85 = 15%

what we are saying is that it is just 15% of her questions that were wrong.

This mathematically;

15% of x = 3

15/100 * x = 3

15x = 3 * 100

15x = 300

x = 300/15

x = 20
