Vesna [10]

Answer:

<em><u>Part 1:</u></em> "What is the ratio of vacant space to occupied space?"  \frac{6}{35}

<em><u>Part 2:</u></em> "What percent of the space is occupied?"  85.37%


Step-by-step explanation:


<u>1st part:</u>

Total square foot = (8*300) + (1*800) + (1*900) = 4100 sq. feet

Vacant Space = 2*300=600

Occupied Space = 4100 - 600 = 3500


Thus ratio of vacant space to occupied space = \frac{600}{3500}=\frac{6}{35}


<u>2nd part:</u>

To find % of occupied space, we need to divide occupied space (in sq ft.) by the <em>total square feet</em> and then multiply by 100 (since we want the percentage):

\frac{3500}{4100}=0.8537=85.37

Occupied space is 85.37%

Vanessa mane 6 sandwiches for a party and cut all into fourths. How many 1/4- sandwich pieces did she have?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Whenever you cut a sandwich in four parts, you make four small sandwiches out of each sandwich you're cutting.

So, if you have six sandwiches, and make four small sandwiches out of each of them, you'll end up with

6 \cdot 4 = 24 small sandwiches

In the following figure, select whether the green and red graphics are functions or not
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

  C. green is not a function, red is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

A curve does not describe a functional relationship if a vertical line crosses it in more than one place. Clearly the y-axis crosses the green curve in 2 places, so it is NOT a function.

There is a very steep section at x=10 on the red curve. It we assume it is simply "very steep" and not "vertical", then the red curve IS a function. If you assume that short section is vertical, then the red curve is not a function, either. My choice is to go with "very steep," not "vertical."

My conclusion is that green is not a function; red is a function.
