Answer:

800

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion using the information we are given. We know that 240 students corresponds to 30% and that the total number of students, x, corresponds to 100%

$\frac{240}{x} = \frac{30}{100}$

Cross multiply and solve:

240 * 100 = 30x

24000 = 30x

800 = x

The corners of a meadow are shown on a coordinate grid. Ethan wants to fence the meadow. What length of fencing is required?

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

34.6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The lenght of fencing required is the total distance between point A to B, B to C, C to D, and D to A. That is the distance between all 4 corners of the meadow.

The coordinates of the corners of the meadow is shown on a coordinate plane in the attachment. (See attachment below).

Let's use the distance formula to calculate the distance between the 4 corners of the meadow using their coordinates as follows:

Distance between point A(-6, 2) and point B(2, 6):

$AB = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Let,

$A(-6, 2)) = (x_1, y_1)$

$B(2, 6) = (x_2, y_2)$

$AB = \sqrt{(2 - (-6))^2 + (6 - 2)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{(8)^2 + (4)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{64 + 16} = \sqrt{80}$

$AB = 8.9$ (nearest tenth)

Distance between B(2, 6) and C(7, 1):

$BC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Let,

$B(2, 6) = (x_1, y_1)$

$C(7, 1) = (x_2, y_2)$

$BC = \sqrt{(7 - 2)^2 + (1 - 6)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{(5)^2 + (-5)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{25 + 25} = \sqrt{50}$

$BC = 7.1$ (nearest tenth)

Distance between C(7, 1) and D(3, -5):

$CD = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Let,

$C(7, 1) = (x_1, y_1)$

$D(3, -5) = (x_2, y_2)$

$CD = \sqrt{(3 - 7)^2 + (-5 - 1)^2}$

$CD = \sqrt{(-4)^2 + (-6)^2}$

$CD = \sqrt{16 + 36} = \sqrt{52}$

$CD = 7.2$ (nearest tenth)

Distance between D(3, -5) and A(-6, 2):

$DA = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

Let,

$D(3, -5) = (x_1, y_1)$

$A(-6, 2) = (x_2, y_2)$

$DA = \sqrt{(-6 - 3)^2 + (2 - (-5))^2}$

$DA = \sqrt{(-9)^2 + (7)^2}$

$DA = \sqrt{81 + 49} = \sqrt{130}$

$DA = 11.4$ (nearest tenth)

Length of fencing required = 8.9 + 7.1 + 7.2 + 11.4 = 34.6 units

Graph the relation. Is the relation a function? Why or why not? {(–1, 1), (–2, 1), (–2, 2), (0, 2)} Yes; there is only one domai

Luden [163]

{(–1, 1), (–2, 1), (–2, 2), (0, 2)}

In a function, each input has an output

Each domain has a range. In a function, range can be repeated but domain cannot be repeated. Same domain cannot have two range values.

Here domain is {-1, -2, -2, 0}

Range is { 1, 1, 2, 2}

Domain -2 is repeating so this relation is not a function

Answer : No; a domain value has two range values.

Mason walked on Monday, Wensday, and Friday. Use these clues to find how far he walked each day. These distances were six-eights

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Monday he walked $\frac{1}{4}miles$

Wednesday he walked $\frac{6}{8}miles$

Friday he walked $\frac{1}{6}miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Mason walked on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. These distances were six-eights mile, one-fourth mile, and one-sixth mile. He did not walk the farthest on Monday. He walked less on Friday than Monday. we have to find how far he walked each day.

distances are $\frac{6}{8}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{6}$ that are 0.75, 0.25 and 0.17 respectively.

Now, he didn't walk farthest on Monday and also walked less on Friday than Monday.

∴ Less distance travelled is $\frac{1}{6}$ which is on friday and then $\frac{1}{4}$ on monday.

Rest distance which is $\frac{6}{8}$ on wednesday.

Hence, Monday he walked $\frac{1}{4}miles$

Wednesday he walked $\frac{6}{8}miles$

Friday he walked $\frac{1}{6}miles$
