Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total for football: 9 +7

Total for figure skating: 12 +7

NEW Total for football: 16

NEW Total for figure skating: 19

The question says that 9 people like football

The question says that 12 people like to watch figure skating

The question also says that 7 people like to watch both, and because of that, you should add 7 to both 9 and 12, but keep the new numbers separated from each other. So once we know the sum of 9 +7 is 16, and 12 + 7 is 19, we can subtract the two numbers, and get 3 as the answer. Because you are counting the number of times that you have to travel up or down to the other number, and so if you are on a set of stairs that go up to the 16 level and you are on the 14th level, you need to travel up 2 sets of stairs to get to level 16.

Hope that example helps and can help in the future with other problems!

Answer:

1. A container of milk 2L

2. An Eyedropper has 1 mL

3. A cup of punch 250 mL

4. A jar of pickles 500mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Without even measuring, just think of this problem logically. Remember that a 1 L is 1000mL, so it is 1000 times more than 1 mL.

A milk container would hold more than a cup of milk and that is more than 20 mL. The most logical answer would be 2L.

An eyedropper can hold just a little amount of liquid. Just think that it dispenses liquid in drops, the best answer would be 1mL (which is actually an estimate of the volume of a drop is.)

A cup of punch is about 250 mL. The keyword there is a CUP and 25L is a big amount and the cup would have to be HUGE.

Same as above, the keyword there is a jar. A 50L jar would be a very big amount for just a jar of pickles.

In a bag of marbles, 10 are blue, 30 are yellow, 20 are red, and 40 are green.AN marbles is taken from the bag without looking.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

10 are blue, 30 are yellow, 20 are red, and 40 are green.

There are 100 marbles in the bag

The color that has the most marbles is green

P( green) = 40/100 = 40%

P( yellow) = 30/100 = 30%

P( red) = 20/100 = 20%

P( blue) = 10/100 = 10%

You will be more likely to pick a green marble

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 1 mi and a speed of 470 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate a
kiruha [24]

Answer:

407 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Speed of plane (s) = 470 mi/h

Height of plane above radar station (h) = 1 mi

Let the distance of plane from station be 'D' at any time 't' and let 'x' be the horizontal distance traveled in time 't' by the plane.

Consider a right angled triangle representing the above scenario.

We can see that, the height 'h' remains fixed as the plane is flying horizontally.

Speed of the plane is nothing but the rate of change of horizontal distance of plane. So, s=\frac{dx}{dt}=470\ mi/h

Now, applying Pythagoras theorem to the triangle, we have:

D^2=h^2+x^2\\\\D^2=1+x^2

Differentiating with respect to time 't', we get:

2D\frac{dD}{dt}=0+2x\frac{dx}{dt}\\\\\frac{dD}{dt}=\frac{x}{D}(s)

Now, when the plane is 2 miles away from radar station, then D = 2 mi

Also, the horizontal distance traveled can be calculated using the value of 'D' in equation (1). This gives,

2^2=1+x^2\\\\x^2=4-1\\\\x=\sqrt3=1.732\ mi

Now, plug in all the given values and solve for \frac{dD}{dt}. This gives,

\frac{dD}{dt}=\frac{1.732\times 470}{2}=407.02\approx 407\ mi/h

Therefore, the distance from the plane to the station is increasing at a rate of 407 mi/h.
