Answer:

a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes

The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes

a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set up equation is as follows;

11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;

13 = 3·M - 2

3·M = 13 + 2 = 15

3·M = 15

M = 15/3 = 5

M = 5

The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes

In circle D with m \angle CDE= 76m∠CDE=76 and CD=13CD=13 units find area of sector CDE. Round to the nearest hundredth.
Ksju [112]

Answer:

112.03sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sector = theta/360 * πr²

The area of a sector = 76/360 * 3.14 * 13²

The area of a sector = 76/360 * 530.66

The area of a sector = 40,330.16/360

The area of a sector = 112.03sq. units

This gives the area of the sector

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The pressure is 20\ psi

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form y*x=k or y=k/x

In this problem we have

V*P=k

where

V is the volume of a gas at a constant temperature

P is the pressure

we have

For V=100\ in^{3},P=25\ psi

step 1

Find the value of k

substitute the values of V and P

100*25=k

k=2,500

The equation is equal to  V*P=2,500

step 2

Find the pressure when the volume is 125 cubic inches

For V=125\ in^{3}

substitute in the equation and solve for P

125*P=2,500

P=2,500/125=20\ psi
