Answer: No. Pennant Sports Shop did not sell the same ratio of defense sticks to total lacrosse sticks on both days.

Step-by-step explanation:

On Friday, there were 25 lacrosse sticks sold, 10 of which were defense sticks. The ratio of defense sticks to lacrosse will be:

= 10/25 = 2/5 = 2:5

On Saturday, there were 50 lacrosse sticks sold, 15 of which were defense stick. The ratio of defense sticks to lacrosse will be:

= 15/50 = 3/10 = 3:10

Based on the calculation above, Pennant Sports Shop did not sell the same ratio of defense sticks to total lacrosse sticks on both days

Ivan has $1098 worth of $12 and $14 stock shares. The number of $14 shares is seven more than
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Number of 12$ Shares? 25

Number of 14$ Shares? 57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of $12 shares.

Let y = number of $14 shares.

"Ivan has $1098 worth of $12 and $14 stock shares."
12x + 14y = 1098

The number of $14 shares is seven more than twice the number of $12 shares.

y = 2x + 7

We have a system of equations.

12x + 14y = 1098

y = 2x + 7

We can use the substitution method since the second equation is already solved for y. Substitute 2x + 7 for y in the first equation.

12x + 14(2x + 7) = 1098

12x + 28x + 98 = 1098

40x = 1000

x = 25

There are 25 $12 shares.

y = 2x + 7 = 2(25) + 7 = 57

There are 57 $14 shares.

Check:

25 × $12 + 57 × $1`4 = $300 + $798 = $1098

The total value is correct, so the answer is correct.

33. Suppose you were on a planet where the
tatyana61 [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

a) 3.675 m  

b) 3.67m

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given acceleration due to gravity on earth =9.8ms^-2

And on planet given = 2.0ms^-2

A) <u>Since the maximum</u><u> jump height</u><u> is given by the formula  </u>

\mathrm{H}=\frac{\left(\mathrm{v} 0^{2} \times \sin 2 \emptyset\right)}{2 \mathrm{g}}

Where H = max jump height,  

v0 = velocity of jump,  

Ø = angle of jump and  

g = acceleration due to gravity

Considering velocity and angle in both cases  

\frac{\mathrm{H} 1}{\mathrm{H} 2}=\frac{\mathrm{g} 2}{\mathrm{g} 1}

Where H1 = jump height on given planet,

H2 = jump height on earth = 0.75m (given)  

g1 = 2.0ms^-2 and  

g2 = 9.8ms^-2

Substituting these values we get H1 = 3.675m which is the required answer

B)<u> Formula to </u><u>find height</u><u> of ball thrown is given by  </u>

 \mathrm{h}=(\mathrm{v} 0 * \mathrm{t})+\frac{\mathrm{a} *\left(t^{2}\right)}{2}

which is due to projectile motion of ball  

Now h = max height,

v0 = initial velocity = 0,

t = time of motion,  

a = acceleration = g = acceleration due to gravity

Considering t = same on both places we can write  

\frac{\mathrm{H} 1}{\mathrm{H} 2}=\frac{\mathrm{g} 1}{\mathrm{g} 2}

where h1 and h2 are max heights ball reaches on planet and earth respectively and g1 and g2 are respective accelerations

substituting h2 = 18m, g1 = 2.0ms^-2  and g2 = 9.8ms^-2

We get h1 = 3.67m which is the required height

How do i solve an area and volume
Hitman42 [59]
It depends on the shape or figure your trying to find it for.
Area- the area of a flat or plane figure is the number of unit squares that can be contained in it.
Volume- Is the measure of the amount of space in a closed figure.
