Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the way to find how many participanted in the class voted, you need to look at the percentages and the number of students that voted for Vicky.

50% of students voted for Vicky and the question later explained that the total of the 50% was 30 students. This mean we know half of the student that participated. To find the total amount of students to make 100%, you need to multiple 30 by 2. which is 60.

Now that we know there were 60 students in total, we can find how many participated by using Iverson's percentage.

this is the formula that can help with any percentage math problem:

The percentage of something ÷ 100% = the number you are looking for ÷ the total

in our case:

40÷100 = x (because it is the unknown term)÷60

from here you cross multiple getting

2400÷100x

which equals

24

now we have to add Vicky's and Iverson's voter

24 + 30= 54

60-54=6

6 students did not participate

Help?? I could really use it
Lynna [10]

Answer:

16.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle shown in the figure is a right triangle, so we can use the Pythagoreas Theorem.

a² + b² = c²

a² + 32² = 36²

a² + 1024 = 1296

a² = 272

a = √272

a = 16.5

Answer: 16.5 m

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

x=\sqrt{338}

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

x^2+x^2=26^2

2x^2=26^2

2x^2=676

/2           /2

x^2=338

\sqrt{x^2} =\sqrt{338}

x=\sqrt{338}

Aye help me please :)
mina [271]

Answer:

there's no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

if y = 3x -4 then use this instead of y in the second equation

9x -3(3x+4) = 14 ➡9x-9x -12 = 14 9x will eliminate -9x and -12 can't be = 14 so there's no solution

Free fall reaches 216km per hour. What is rate in meters per second.? How many meters fall during 20 seconds free fall?
lakkis [162]

Given,

Rate of free fall = 216 km/h

Solution,

km/h to m/s is converted as follows :

216\ \dfrac{km}{h}=216\times \dfrac{1000\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\=60\ m/s

So, the rate of fall is 60 m/s.

If t = 20 s

Assume, initial velocity = 0

It will move under the action of gravity.

Using equation of motion,

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 20^2\\\\h=2000\ m

Hence, this is all for the solution.
