Solve for y. 2/3+y−1/9=7/9 Enter your answer in the box

1 answer:

3 0

Adding 1/9 to both sides, we get 2/3+y=8/9. Next, 2/3 can be multiplied by 3/3 to get 6/9 due to that 3*3=9 and using the identity property. We then subtract 6/9 from both sides to get y=2/9

if a pound of grapes cost $0.14 in 1960 and the price of grapes increased at the same rate as the CPI from 1960 to 1980 by appro

masya89 [10]

The CPI increased from 29.6 to 82.4.

The rate of increase, is:

82.4/29.6 = 2.78

Now multiply this rate to the $0.14 price of grapes from 1960.

$0.14 x 2.78 = $0.39

Now to get the amount of increase subtract the new price from the original price:

$0.39 - $0.14 = $0.25 increase.

Liliana is making a vase with a circular base. She wants the area of the base to be between 135 cm2 and 155 cm2. Which circle co

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

(b) Circle C is shown. Line segment A C is a radius with length 7 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Minimum\ Area = 135cm^2$

$Maximum\ Area = 155cm^2$

$\pi = 3.14$

Required

Which circle could she use

To do this, we simply calculate the areas of all the given circles

The area of a circle is:

$Area = \pi r^2$

Where

$r = radius$

$a.\ r = 6cm$

The area is calculated as thus:

$Area = \pi r^2$

$Area = 3.14 * (6cm)^2$

$Area = 3.14 * 36cm^2$

$Area = 114.04cm^2$

$b.\ r = 7cm$

The area is calculated as thus:

$Area = \pi r^2$

$Area = 3.14 * (7cm)^2$

$Area = 3.14 * 49cm^2$

$Area = 153.86cm^2$

$c.\ r = 8cm$

The area is calculated as thus:

$Area = \pi r^2$

$Area = 3.14 * (8cm)^2$

$Area = 3.14 * 64cm^2$

$Area = 200.96cm^2$

$d.\ r = 9cm$

The area is calculated as thus:

$Area = \pi r^2$

$Area = 3.14 * (9cm)^2$

$Area = 3.14 * 81cm^2$

$Area = 254.34cm^2$

<em>From the calculations above; only the circle in option (b) has an area within the required range of 135 to 155cm^2</em>

The lengths of two sides of a triangle are 4 cm 4 cm and 20 cm . 20 cm. Identify the correct pair of measures between which the

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

I think what you meant to say is "If a triangle has 2 sides that are 4 cm and 20 cm, what are the possible lengths of the third side?"

Basically, when given 2 sides of a triangle, the third side must be GREATER than the DIFFERENCE of the other 2 sides and LESS than the SUM of the other 2 sides.

difference = 16 cm

sum = 24 cm

So, the third side must be greater than 16 cm and less than 24 cm

Jerome is going to draw a marble from the bag shown below, replace it, and then draw another marble. What is the probability tha

alexira [117]

Marbles in a bag: 3 green, 4 yellow, 5 blue, 8 pink.

Event A - get a green or yellow marble
Event B - get a pink marble

Events A and B are independent because we draw a marble from a bag with 20 marbles in both cases.
$P(A)= \frac{3+4}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{7}{20} 
\\P(B)= \frac{8}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}$

Probability of combined events is
$P(A) \times P(B)=\frac{7}{20} \times \frac{2}{5} =\frac{7}{50}$
