Answer:

40% is children and 60% in adults

Step-by-step explanation:

so if you add the two you have 40, 100% of 40 is 40 and 50% is 20, so we know that the children percent is less than 50, if you go through you will find that 40% of 40 is 16 therefor leaving the rest (aka 60%) to be adults

Answer:

60% adult

40% children

Reasoning:

Add the adults and children first.

Then find the ratios of the children and parent percentages.

16:40 children

24:40 adult

16/40=2/5=0.4=40% children

24/40=3/5=0.6=60% adult

Prove that 7 + 3 root 2 is not a rational number​
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let 7 + 3√2 be an rational number where

7+3√2 = a/b [ a and b are coprime and b is not equal to zero]

3√2= a/b-7

3√2 =( a-7b) /b

√2 = (a-7b) /3b .....(i)

Now ,from equation (i) ,we get that √2 is rational but we know that √2 is irrational. so actually 7 + 3√2 is irrational not rational. thus our assumption is wrong. The number is irrational.

Select the equation of the line parallel to the equation y = -2x - 7 that passes through the point (3, 1).
sasho [114]
Y = -2x - 7 
slope = -2 (parallel shares the same slope, -2)

Option A:
y = -2x + 7
slope = -2

At (3, 1)
y = -2(3) + 7 = 1

Answer: Option A

The data set below shows the number of players on each softball team in a tournament:
stich3 [128]
An outlier number is the number that's completely different from the rest.
For example;
1, 15, 17, 16, 14.
"1" is the outlier.

Our list of numbers range (on average) from 7-12.

Let's look at our answer choices.

A.) There is one outlier that indicates an unusually large number of players on that team.

This is true, as we have 21, the one and only outlier in our list.

Your answer is A.)

I hope this helps!

A cube has a surface area of 3/2. What's the volume?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the surface area = 6x²

6 is the number of faces and x is the length of the cube

so 3/2 = 6x²

Divide by 6

1/4 = x²

Square root both sides

1/2 = x

Volume is : l×w×h

so 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/8

Please help me!!! i will gladly give brainliest :)
True [87]

Given:

ΔONP and ΔMNL.

To find:

The method and additional information that will prove ΔONP and ΔMNL similar by the AA similarity postulate?

Solution:

According to AA similarity postulate, two triangles are similar if their two corresponding angles are congruent.

In ΔONP and ΔMNL,

\angle ONP\cong \angle MNL       (Vertically opposite angles)

To prove ΔONP and ΔMNL similar by the AA similarity postulate, we need one more pair of corresponding congruent angles.

Using a rigid transformation, we can prove

\angle NOP\cong \angle NML

Since two corresponding angles are congruent in ΔONP and ΔMNL, therefore,

\Delta ONP\sim \Delta MNL        (AA postulate)

Therefore, the correct option is A.
