Answer:

Out of total people visited the zoo on Sunday , 6.25% was senior citizen ,  18.75% were infants , 35% were children and 35% were adult.

Step-by-step explanation:

let total number of people visited the group  = x

so number of senior citizens = x × 1/16 = x/16

Percentage of  senior citizens = (number of senior citizens ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100

= (x/16 ÷ x)  × 100 = 100/16 = 6.25%

number of infants = 3/16 × x = 3x/16

Percentage of  infants =(number of infants  ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/16 ÷ x)  × 100 = 300/16 = 18.75%

number of  children = 3/8 × x = 3x/8

Percentage of  children =(number of children ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/8 ÷ x)  × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5%

number of  adults = 3/8 × x = 3x/8

Percentage of  adults =(number of adults ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/8 ÷ x)  × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5%.

Hence we can conclude that Out of total people visited the zoo on Sunday , 6.25% was senior citizen ,  18.75% were infants , 35% were children and 35% were adult.

Use a proportion to determine the number of children age 5 in a kindergarten class if 80% of a class of 20 children are that age
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

16 children

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of 20 children comes out to 16 children who are of age 5.

If desired, rewrite "80%" as "0.80" and use that 0.80 as the multiplier of 20:

0.80(20 children) = 16 children.

2. A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 15 cm. What are possible lengths for the two legs of the triangle? Explain your reasonin
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Two possible lengths for the legs A and B are:

B = 1cm

A = 14.97cm

Or:

B = 9cm

A = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle rectangle, Pythagorean's theorem says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

Then if the two legs of the triangle are A and B, and the hypotenuse is H, we have:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

If we know that H = 15cm, then:

A^2 + B^2 = (15cm)^2

Now, let's isolate one of the legs:

A = √( (15cm)^2 - B^2)

Now we can just input different values of B there, and then solve the value for the other leg.

Then if we have:

B = 1cm

A = √( (15cm)^2 - (1cm)^2) = 14.97

Then we could have:

B = 1cm

A = 14.97cm

Now let's try with another value of B:

if B = 9cm, then:

A = √( (15cm)^2 - (9cm)^2) = 12 cm

Then we could have:

B = 9cm

A = 12cm

So we just found two possible lengths for the two legs of the triangle.
