Answer:

2400 miles²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Area off the coast is rectangular ;

Dimension of location :40 miles by 66 miles

The area of the location will be : the area of a rectangle ;

The area of a rectangle = Length * width

Area = 40 miles * 60 miles

Area = 2400 miles²

At First Class Pizza, 12% of the pizzas made yesterday were pepperoni pizzas. If 27 pizzas have pepperoni, how many pizzas were
gogolik [260]

Answer: 225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of pizza made be represented by x.

Therefore, the situation in the question can be written as:

12% × x = 27

12/100 × x = 27

0.12 × x = 27

0.12x = 27

Divide both side by 0.12

0.12x/0.12 = 27/0.12

x = 225

The total pizza made was 225.

A customer goes to a bank and gets change for a $100 bill. The change is to be in $1, $5, and $10 bills. There were four times a
alexira [117]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of $1 bills

y = number of $5 bills

z = number of $10 bills

We know that:

x + y + z = 25 (total amount of bills)

x + 5y + 10z = 100 (total amount of money)

y = 4z (Given)

Substitute the third equation into the first one.

x + 4z + z = 25

x = 25 - 5z

Put this into the second equation.

(25 - 5z) + 5 (4z) + 10z = 100

Simplify and solve.

25 - 5z + 20z + 10z = 100

25z + 25 = 100

25z = 75

z = 3

Substitute this into y = 4z

y = 4 * 3

y = 12

So, there are 12 $5 bills.

*Help ASAP Please! Studying for finals and I'm stuck on this question!*

First I am going to assume that these are both right triangles based off of look and because it is much easier. Without it you have to use law of sines or law of cosines...
So to find x you must first find y which can be done simply by using the pythagorean theorem. This theorem is defined as the sum of the squared legs is equal to the sum of the hypotenuse or x^2 + y^2 = z^2

If we substitute in the known values 16^2 + y^2 = 20^2 and solve for y we get that y = sqrt(20^2 - 16^2), this then simplifies to y = 12

Finding x is much more annoying, the easiest way I can immediately see is to find the upper angles by doing sin(16/20) and then 90 - sin(16/20) since the complementary angle is the one you want. I don't have a calculator or a trig table with me right now but I will tell you that x will be equal to 12 ÷ the inverse cosine of the angle (90degrees - sin(16/20)).

I am pretty sure the answer is D though because we know for sure y = 12 and x has to be greater than y because the hypotenuse must be larger than both legs. It could be E but you won't know unless you do the math for x. So it is either D or E but I would be surprised if a Professor made you do all of the work just to say it doesn't work...
