Answer:

9670 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height given (8219.5 ft) is 85% OF ORIGINAL, hence original is much higher. But how do we figure this out?

we translate word problem to equation.

8219.5 IS 85% of TOTAL

Firstly, 85% = 85/100 = 0.85

Remember, is means =

of means multiplication

So we have:

8219.5 = 0.85 * Total

Hence, total = [let total be 7]

8219.5 = 0.85 * t

t = 8219.5/0.85 = 9670 feet

Answer:

PQ=30

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that the segment has 3 parts that are 3:1:1 and sum up to 50, you could find how much 1 would equal by finding the total in relation to the ratio (doing 3+1+1) which gets you 5 parts. Then you can divide the total (50) by 5 to figure out how much one part would equal (10). Now, since you know that 1 part is equal to 10 and that PQ is 3 parts, you can find that PQ is equal to 3x10, or 30.

andriy [413]

Answer:

78,624,000 license plates

Step-by-step explanation:

For each of the 4 numbers, we have the following possibilities:

First number: 10 digits possible

Second number: 9 digits possible (one used)

Third number: 8 digits possible (two used)

Fourth number: 7 digits possible (three used)

For each of the 3 letters, we have the following possibilities:

First letter: 26 digits possible

Second letter: 25 digits possible (one used)

Third letter: 24 digits possible (two used)

The total number of license plates is the product of all these possibilities:

Number of plates = 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 26 * 25 * 24 = 78,624,000 license plates
