Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets get a common denominator
2/3 *2/2 = 4/6
1/2 * 3/3 = 3/6
4/6 > 3/6
2/3 > 1/2
Answer:
512 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the parking lot at the Red Hill Shopping Center, the angle of sight (elevation) to the top of the hill is about 25. From the base of the hill you can also sight the top but at an angle of 55. The horizontal distance between sightings is 740 feet. How high is Red Hill? Show your subproblems.
Solution:
Let x be the distance from the base of the hill to the middle of the hill perpendicular to the height, let h be the height of the hill. Therefore:
tan 25 = h/(x + 740)
h = (x + 740)tan 25 (1)
tan 55 = h / x
h = x tan 55 (2)
Hence:
(x + 740)tan 25 = xtan 55
0.4663(x + 740) = 1.428x
0.4663x + 345.07 = 1.428x
0.9617x = 345.07
x = 359 ft.
h = xtan55 = 359 tan(55) = 512 ft.
Answer: She would need 206 paper cups.
Step-by-step explanation: First of all, Monica has a 10-gallon container full of lemonade and this translates into 37850 cubic centimetres volume of lemonade. The conversion rate has been provided as one gallon equals 3785 cubic centimetres, therefore ten gallons would be 3785 times ten which gives you 37,850 cubic centimetres of lemonade.
Each cone shaped paper cup has a diameter measuring 8 centimetres and 11 centimetres in height. The radius of the cone shaped cup therefore is 4 centimetres (radius equals diameter divided by two). The volume of each cup therefore is given as;
Volume of a cone = (πr²h)/3
Volume of a cone = (3.14 * 4² * 11)/3
Volume of a cone = 552.64/3
Volume of a cone = 184.2
If each cone could hold 184 cubic centimetres of lemonade, then the entire ten gallons would require the following number of cone shaped cups;
Number of cups = Total volume/Volume of a cup
Number of cups = 37850/184.2
Number of cups = 205.48
Rounded to the nearest whole number, this becomes
Number of cups ≈ 206
Therefore Monica would need 206 cone shaped paper cups to empty the entire 10 gallons of lemonade.
The first step to determine the percentage of increase is to
compute for the difference of consumer price index in value.
231.11 (consumer price index for 2012) – 211.4 (consumer
price index for 2007) = 19.71 (increase)
To compute for the percentage of increase, you need to
compare the increase to the consumer price index for 2007.
19.71/211.4 = 9.3% increase
