DM

Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent the pizza as 1. And every time we take a slice, we take percentage away. This pizza is cut up equally into 10 slices. So, if we take away a slice, we take away 1/10 of the pizza. What if Sally ate 6 slices? Same difference. She took away 6/10 of the pizza.

And to answer the question, "What percentage of the pizza did Sally eat if she had six slices?"

We will convert the 6/10 into a percentage. First convert the fraction into a decimal then into a percent.

To convert a fraction into a decimal, simply divide it's numerator by it's denominator.

6/10 = 0.60

And to convert a decimal into a percentage, move the decimal point two places to the right and change it into a % sign.

0.60 = 60%

So, the answer to this question C) 60%

a train goes 20% farther than an older train in the same amount of time. During the time it takes the other train to go 200 mile

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

240 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to write an equation. For this problem let <u>d be the distance traveled</u>. We know that the new train (being much more modern than poor old Thomas who is long retired) can go 20% further. To show this we will take 20% of 200 and then add that to the original distance.

Our equation would look something like this:

d=200+(20%·200)

[one more little note: to find percentage take your percent and convert it into a decimal 20%=0.2)

d=200+(0.2·200)

d=200+40

<u>d=240</u>

Pam has 90 m of fencing to enclose an area in a petting zoo with two dividers to separate three types of young animals. The thre

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The area function is

$A=\frac{135}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}x^2$ .

The domain and range of A is $(0,15m)$ and $(0, 253.125 m^2]$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given length of fencing is $90 m$ .

Let the length and width of each pen be $x$ and $y$ respectively as shown in the figure.

As there are 3 pens, so, the total area,

$A= 3 xy \;\cdots (i)$

From the figure the total length of fencing is $6x+4y$ .

Here, for a significant area for the animals, $x>0$ as well as $y>0$ as $x$ and $y$ are the sides of ben.

From the given value:

$6x+4y=90\;\cdots (ii)$

$\Rightarrow y=\frac {45}{2}-\frac{3x}{2}$

Now, from equation (i)

$A=3x\left(\frac {45}{2}-\frac{3x}{2}\right)$

$\Rightarrow A=\frac{135}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}x^2\;\cdots (iii)$

This is the required area function in the terms of variable $x$ .

For the domain of area function, from equation (ii)

$x=15-\frac{2y}{3}$

$\Rightarrow x$ [as y>0]

So, the domain of area function is $(0,15m)$ .

For the range of area function:

As $x \rightarrow 0$ or $y\rightarrow 0$ , then $A\rightarrow 0$ [from equation (i)]

$\Rightarrow A>0$

Now, differentiate the area function with respect to $x$ .

$\frac {dA}{dx}=\frac{135}{2}-9x$

Equate $\frac {dA}{dx}$ to zero to get the extremum point.

$\frac {dA}{dx}=0$

$\Rightarrow \frac{135}{2}-9x=0$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{15}{2}$

Check this point by double differentiation

$\frac {d^2A}{dx^2}=-9$

As, $\frac {d^2A}{dx^2}$ , so, point $x=\frac{15}{2}$ is corresponding to maxima.

Put this value back to equation (iii) to get the maximum value of area function. We have

$A=\frac{135}{2}\times \frac {15}{2}-\frac{9}{2}\times \left(\frac {15}{2}\right)^2$

$\Rightarrow A=253.125 m^2$

Hence, the range of area function is $(0, 253.125 m^2]$ .
