Answer:

  19

Step-by-step explanation:

After x days, the boy will have read 10x. If this is less than 192, we have ...

  10x < 192

  x < 192/10

  x < 19.2

If x is an integer, the largest possible value x could have is 19.

the angle theta is in the second quadrant and cos theta = -2/√29 determine possible coordinates for point P on the terminal arm
Gekata [30.6K]

\cos(\theta)=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{29}} and $\theta$ lies in $2^{\text{th}}$ quadrant.

where, $x-$ coordinate is negative, and $y-$ coordinate is positive

so it can't a.

now, cosine means, side adjacent over the hypotenuse, in Cartesian plane, that will be $x-$ coordinate over the distance from origin.

Assume the triangle , with base $2$ units and hypotenuse $\sqrt{29}$ and it's in second quadrant. (so \cos(\theta)=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{29}})

now, the leftmost point on $x-$ axis is , obviously $(-2,0)$

and by Pythagoras theorem, we can find the perpendicular side, that will be $y^2=(\sqrt{29})^2-(2)^2\implies y=5$

so the coordinates of the upper vertex is $(-2,5)$, each point lying on this "ray" should have equal ratio of respective coordinates. i.e. $\frac25=\left|\frac xy\right| $

and it should lie on second quadrant, so $x<0 \, y>0$

Option d satisfies this.

In a school library, 7/12 of the books are about science. Of the science books, 2/3 are about mammals. What fraction of the tota
Pavel [41]

The  fraction of the total books about mammals is 7/18

Let the total number of books in the school be 1 whole , ie 12/12( since we are dealing with fractions)

Number of science books =7/12

Number of mammals books =2/3 of science books

=2/3  x 7/12=14/36 = 7/18

Since the total books are 12/12 which is also =1 whole

Then the fraction of total books that are about mammals are 7/18 x 1 whole =7/18

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did she
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

6 19/20 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts.

She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B.

Gift A + Gift B + Gift C = $20

Gift C = $20 - (Gift A + Gift B)

Gift A = $8 1/4

Gift B = $4 4/5

Hence:

The amount she had left for gift C is :

Gift C = $20 - ($8 1/4 + $ 4 4/5)

Gift C = $20 - $13 1/20

Gift C = $ 6 19/20

Let's assume that bacteria doubles every 10 minutes. If a culture begins with exactly
zmey [24]

Greetings!

First off, we should know that there are 60 minutes in an hour. Therefore, the first step we will need to do, is divide 60 by 10.

60 ÷ 10 = 6

As shown above, we now know we will have to double the number 6 times. If we start with 30, this will be our first problem.

(1)   30 + 30 = 60

And so on and so forth...

(2)   60 + 60 = 120

(3)   120 + 120 = 240

(4)   240 + 240 = 480

(5)   480 + 480 = 960

(6)   960 + 960 = 1920

And after our sixth time we have our answer:

1920 bacteria
