Answer:

The total number of students are 250 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

24% of students buy there lunch, 190 students bring their lunch from home.

As the percentage is always be 100% .

Thus

Percentage students bring their lunch from home = (100 - 24 ) %

                                                                                    = 76 %

Formula

Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ value}

Percentage = 76%

Part value = 190

Put all the values in the formula

76 = \frac{190\times 100}{Total\ value}

Total\ value= \frac{19000}{76}

Total value = 250

Therefore the total number of students are 250 .

so we know that 24% of the students buy their lunch at the cafeteria, and 190 students brownbag.

well, 100% - 24% = 76%, so the remainder of the students, the one that is not part of the 24% is 76%, and we know that's 190 of them.

since 190 is 76%, how much is the 24%?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 190&76\\ x&24 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{190}{x}=\cfrac{76}{24}\implies 4560=76x \\\\\\ \cfrac{4560}{76}=x\implies 60=x \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{total amount of students}}{190+60\implies 250}

If the 10th of the 10 consecutive numbers is 10, what is their sum?
liq [111]
Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):

x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number.  x+9 = 10, so x = 9.

Think of it this way:  there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.

Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.

The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:

sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55          (answer)

Find the directional derivative of f(x,y,z)=2z2x+y3f(x,y,z)=2z2x+y3 at the point (−1,4,3)(−1,4,3) in the direction of the vector
Feliz [49]

f(x,y,z)=2z^2x+y^3

f has gradient

\nabla f(x,y,z)=2z^2\,\vec\imath+3y^2\,\vec\jmath+4xz\,\vec k

which at the point (-1, 4, 3) has a value of

\nabla f(-1,4,3)=18\,\vec\imath+48\,\vec\jmath-12\,\vec k

I'm not sure what the given direction vector is supposed to be, but my best guess is that it's intended to say \vec u=15\,\vec\imath+25\,\vec\jmath, in which case we have

\|\vec u\|=\sqrt{15^2+25^2}=5\sqrt{34}

Then the derivative of f at (-1, 4, 3) in the direction of \vec u is

D_{\vec u}f(-1,4,3)=\nabla f(-1,4,3)\cdot\dfrac{\vec u}{\|\vec u\|}=\boxed{\dfrac{294}{\sqrt{34}}}
