The percentage of the people surveyed that were satisfied with the car is 45%.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Total population = 1,600 people

Number of car owner = 720 people.

To determine the percentage of the people surveyed that were satisfied with the car:

<h3>How to solve for a percentage.</h3>

In this exercise, you're required to calculate the percentage of the total population in this survey that would by a particular type of car again because they were satisfied with it. Thus, we would solve for the percentage as follows;

$Percent = \frac{Satisfied\;persons}{Total\; population} \times 100$

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$Percent = \frac{720}{1600} \times 100\\\\Percent = 0.45 \times 100$

Percent = 45%

How do you find the area of the shaded sector of the circle? The radius is 10in and the sector is 45 degrees

Step2247 [10]

Given:

Radius of the circle = 10 in

Central angle of the sector = 45 degrees

To find:

The area of the sector.

Solution:

Area of a sector is

$A=\dfrac{\theta}{360^\circ}\pi r^2$

Where, $\theta$ is the central angle in degrees.

Putting r=10 and $\theta=45^\circ$ , we get

$A=\dfrac{45^\circ}{360^\circ}\pi (10)^2$

$A=\dfrac{1}{8}\pi (100)$

$A=12.5\pi$

Therefore, the area of the sector is 12.5π sq. inches.

Ten is five lees than three times a number. Write as an algebraic equation.

shutvik [7]

Is means equals. The number before the words Less than means that number is subtracted from that number. 3 times a number, we don’t know the number so we use a variable, 3x. So..........

3x-5=10

Do you hypotenuse of a triangle is 1 foot more than twice the length of the shorter leg the longer leg is 7 feet longer than the

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Shorter leg: 8 units

Longer leg: 15 units

Hypotenuse: 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given $h=1+2s$ where $h$ is the hypotenuse and $s$ is the length of the shorter leg.

We got this equation from reading that the "hypotenuse of a triangle is 1 foot more than twice the length of the shorter leg". I replaced the "hypotenuse of a triangle" with $h$ , "is" with $=$ , "1 foot more than" with $1+$ and finally "twice the length of the shorter leg" with $2s$ .

We also have "longer leg is 7 feet longer than the shorter leg".

I'm going to replace "longer leg" with $L$ .

I'm going to replace "is" with $=$ .

I'm going to replace "7 feet longer than the shorter leg" with $7+s$ .

So we have the equation $L=7+s$ .

So we have a right triangle since something there is a side being referred to as the hypotenuse. We can use Pythagorean Theorem to find a relation between all these sides.

So by Pythagorean Theorem, we have: $s^2+L^2=h^2$ .
