Answer:

The percentage increase in Jayana's postcard collection is 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Jayana had 20 postcards last year

With 3 more postcards this year

From the given equation Quantity = Percent x Whole

Here;

Let P = Percent/100%

Quantity = Increment in postcard = 3 postcards

Whole = The total postcards from last year = 20 postcards

Hence,

3 postcards = P x 20 postcards

P = 3/20 = 0.15

Recall P = Percent/100%

∴ Percent = P x 100% = 0.15 x 100% = 15%

The percentage increase in Jayana's postcard collection is 15%

There were 65 people waiting in two lines to buy a snowball ice drink they were joined in the line by 11 more people a total of
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

67 people were still left waiting in line.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 65 plus 11 more, there'd be 76 people in line.

I guess the fact that it says "waiting in two lines" can be completely discarded because bottom line is 9 people got their drinks- which means that "waiting in two lines" means nothing.

76 - 9 = 67 people still left waiting in line.

Which variable expression represents the phrase “the quotient of 5 times a number and 2”?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

5x/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the mystery number is "x"

5 times that = 5 * x = 5x

Then the quotient (that means the result of division, so divide!) of that and 2 would give you: 5x/2

Divide a^24-a^18+a^12 by a^6<br> what is the quotation?
lana66690 [7]

I think you mean "what is the QUOTIENT?"

\dfrac{a^{24} - a^{18} + a^{12}}{a^6} =

= \dfrac{a^{24}}{a^6} - \dfrac{a^{18}}{a^6} + \dfrac{a^{12}}{a^6}

= a^{24 - 6} - a^{18 - 6} + a^{12 - 6}

= a^{18} - a^{12} + a^{6}

Find the volumes of the solids generated by revolving the triangle with vertices (2, 2)​, (2, 6)​, and (5, 6) about ​a) the​ x-a

  • About the x-axis (washer method):

\displaystyle\pi\int_2^5\left(6^2-\left(\frac43x-\frac23\right)^2\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{16\pi}9\int_2^5(20+x-x^2)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{56\pi}

  • About the y-axis (shell method):

\displaystyle2\pi\int_2^5x\left(6-\left(\frac43x-\frac23\right)\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{8\pi}3\int_2^5x(5-x)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{36\pi}

  • About x=7 (shell method):

\displaystyle2\pi\int_2^5(7-x)\left(6-\left(\frac43x-\frac23\right)\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{8\pi}3\int_2^5(35-12x+x^2)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{48\pi}

  • About y=2 (washer method):

\displaystyle\pi\int_2^5\left((6-2)^2-\left(\frac43x-\frac23-2\right)^2\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{16\pi}9\int_2^5(5+4x-x^2)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{32\pi}
