Answer: The person next to you ate more popcorn.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 divided by 4 is 0.75, which is equivalent to 75%. 4 divided by 5 is 0.8, which is equivalent to 80%. Now that you've calculated the percentages of how much they ate, you can assume that 80 > 75 (80 is greater than 75).

Question 1 of 9

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros ( where the graph crosses the x- axis ) are x = 2 and x = 6

The corresponding factors are (x - 2) and (x - 6) and the equation is the product of the factors, so

y = (x - 2)(x - 6) ← expand using Foil

y = x² - 8x + 12 → B

Explain why 2+x and x+3 are equivalent

wlad13 [49]

Check whether the two expressions 2x+3y2x+3y and 2y+3x2y+3x equivalent.

The first expression is the sum of 2x2x 's and 3y3y 's whereas the second one is the sum of 3x3x 's and 2y2y 's.

Let us evaluate the expressions for some values of xx and yy . Take x=0x=0 and y=1y=1 .

2(0)+3(1)=0+3=32(1)+3(0)=2+0=22(0)+3(1)=0+3=32(1)+3(0)=2+0=2

So, there is at least one pair of values of the variables for which the two expressions are not the same.

A silo is constructed using a cylinder with a hemisphere on top. The circumference of the hemisphere and the circumference of th

givi [52]

1. The surface that will be exposed to the rain is the lateral surface of the cylinder and the hemisphere.

2. The lateral area of the cylinder is a rectangle with height equal to the height of the cylinder and width equal to the circumference of the base of the cylinder.

3. the circumference of the base = 2 $\pi$ r=2* $\pi$ *5=10 $\pi$
so the lateral area = 10 $\pi$ *h=10 $\pi$ *40=400 $\pi$ ( $ft^{2}$ )

4. The surface area of a sphere is $4 \pi r^{2}$
so the surface of the hemisphere = $\frac{1}{2} *4 \pi r^{2}=2 \pi (5)^{2}=50 \pi$ ( $ft^{2}$ )

5. Total area exposed = 450 $\pi$ $ft^{2}$
