Answer:

$\frac{110}{201}, 0.55, 55$ %

Explanation:

So first you have to find the total number of people.

$182 + 220 = 402$

Then we put that number in a fraction with the number of people who do not believe in the creatures.

$\frac{220}{402}\\$ $55$

Then we simplify it.

$\frac{220}{402}=\frac{110}{201}\\$

That is our fraction answer. In order to change it into a percent we divide the numerator by the denominator.

$\frac{110}{201}=0.54726368159\\$

Then we round to the nearest hundredth (or what ever it says).

$0.55$

And that is our decimal. Now to change that into a percent we multiply by 100, or move the decimal to spaces to the right.

55%

And that is our percent.

Answer:

C. π(3in)2(12in) − 9(four over threeπ(1.5in)3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of water is the difference of volume of vase at 12 in height and the total volume of marbles.

<u>Volume of cylinder up to water level:</u>

Vs = πr²h = π(6/2)²(12) = π×(3 in)²×(12 in)

<u>Volume of marbles:</u>

Vm = 9(4/3πr³) = 9×(4/3×π(3/2)³) = 9×(4/3×π×(1.5 in)³)

<u>Volume of water:</u>

Vw = Vs - Vm = π×(3 in)²×(12 in) - 9×(4/3×π×(1.5 in)³)

Correct choice is C

Question 14. Select the correct answer. If f(x)=x^2/x+3, find f(x+h)

vekshin1

Answer:

$f(x+h)=\frac{x^2+2h+h^2}{x+h+3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=\frac{x^2}{x+3}$

To find out f(x+h), substitute the variable x by the variable (x+h) in the function f(x)

$f(x+h)=\frac{(x+h)^2}{(x+h)+3}$

$f(x+h)=\frac{x^2+2h+h^2}{x+h+3}$
