Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have all the required values we need, Now we can put them in a simple mathematical formula as below:

STEP 172 = 120% × Y

STEP 272 =  

120

100

× Y

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides of the equation by 120 we will arrive at:

STEP 3Y = 72 ×  

100

120

STEP 4Y = 72 × 100 ÷ 120

STEP 5Y = 60

Finally, we have found the value of Y which is 60 and that is our answer.

You can easily calculate 72 is 120 percent of what number by using any regular calculator, simply enter 72 × 100 ÷ 120 and you will get your answer which is 60

If you use your office computer 40 hours per week, and do not unplug the computer when it is not in use, how much carbon dioxide
dangina [55]
If you use a laptop:  9.25; a desktop with a CRT monitor:  55.51; a desktop with an LCD monitor:  46.26.

A laptop that is plugged up and turned off uses 0.001kw/hr of energy.  Each kwh of energy produces, on average, 1.39 lbs of CO2.  There are 24*7=168 hours in the week; subtract the 40 hour work week from this and we have 128 hours a week for 52 weeks a year:
0.001*128*52=6.656*1.39=9.25.

A desktop that is plugged up and turned off uses 0.004kw/hr of energy.  A CRT monitor uses 0.002 kw/hr when turned off.  This means we have:
(0.004*128*52*1.39)+(0.002*128*52*1.39)=55.51.

For a desktop and an LCD monitor, which uses 0.001 kw/hr of energy, we have:
(0.004*128*52*139)+(0.001*128*52*1.39)=46.26.

Find the area of the circle to the<br> nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for it<br> (11 mm)
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The area of the circle is 379.94 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use the area formula of a circle:

a = area

r = radius = 11 mm

π = 3.14

a = π * r²

we replace with the known values

a = 3.14 * (11 mm)²

a = 3.14 * 121 mm²

a = 379.94 mm²

Round to the nearest tenth

a = 379.94 mm² = 379.9 mm²  

The area of the circle is 379.9 mm²
