The ratio of pharmacy technicians on duty at the hospital during for the day vs. night shifts is 32:19. 1. Express as a percenta
zzz [600]

Answer:

37.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The ratio tells you how they are divided between night and day.

In other words night/ day = 19/32

That's not what you want.

What you want is night over total.

Total

Total = night + day = 19.1 + 32 = 51.1

Night Percent

Night% = Night * 100 / Total

Night% = 19.1 * 100 / 32

Night% = 37.38 %

A building contractor is to dig a foundation 45 feet long, 16 feet wide and 6 feet deep. The contractor pays 13 dollars per load
9966 [12]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 160 yd³ must be hauled
  • $520 is the cost

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 feet in a yard, so the volume of the hole is ...

  (45 ft)/(3 ft/yd) × (16 ft)/(3 ft/yd) × (6 ft)/(3 ft/yd)

  = (15 × 16/3 × 2) yd³ = 160 yd³ . . . volume to be hauled

__

The cost is $13/(4 yd³), so the total cost will be ...

  ($13/(4 yd³)) × 160 yd³ = $520 . . . cost of hauling

In the figure below which term best describes point X?
Dmitrij [34]

The answer is B. centroid, which is the intersection of three medians of the triangle's sides.

Let's look into other answers as well:

A. Circumcenter

It is the point where three perpendicular bisector meet, and is not correct as we can see there is no indication of right angles.

The first photo is what a circumcenter looks like:

C. Incenter

It is the point where the angle bisectors of the triangles meet, which is not indicated in the photo as well.

The second photo is what a incenter looks like:

D. Orthocenter

It is a point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect, and is not indicated by the figure.

The second photo is what a Orthocenter looks like:

Therefore the answer is B. Centroid.

Hope it helps!

Circle A has a diameter of 9 inches, a circumference of 28.26 inches, and an area of 63.585 square inches. The diameter of circl
torisob [31]
Please note that pi has just one value.  The only difference stems from round-off error when you don't use all of the digits following "3.14159 ... " to represent the value of pi.  The formula for circumference is C = 2 pi r, or C = pi d, 
where r=radius and d=diameter.

Circle A:  Diameter 9 inches and Circumference of 28.26 inches

If the diameter is 9 inches, then C = 28.26 inches = pi (9 inches).  Divide 28.26 inches by 9 inches.  Note that you MUST round off the ratio (pi) that you obtain, since 28.26 has 4 significant figures and 9 has just one.

28.26
------- = 3.14, but because 9 has just one significant figure, you must round 
    9           this 3.14 to just 3.
