Answer:

B:J:S

6:8:10

6+8+10= 24 parts all together

Sarah has $50 and equals 10 parts. So, each part is worth $5. (50/10=5)

Thus, Ben receives 6 parts, with each part being $5. So, Ben gets $30. (6x5=30)

Fynjy0 [20]

Given:

Last year 80 students signed up for a summer trip to Washington, D.C.

This summer 50 students have signed up to go.

To find:

The percent decrease in the number of students.

Solution:

We have,

Students in last year = 80

Students in this year = 50

Now,

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{\text{Students in last year - Students in this year }}{\text{Students in last year }}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{80-50}{80}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{30}{80}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{3}{8}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=37.5$

Therefore, the correct option is B.

When would you use herons formula in the real world?

Natalka [10]

Heron's formula is named after Hero of Alexendria, a Greek Engineer and Mathematician in 10 - 70 AD. You can use this formula to find the area of a triangle using the 3 side lengths. Therefore, you do not have to rely on the formula for area that uses base and height. The picture below illustrates the general fro mu la where S represents the semi-perimeter of the triangle ,

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The answer is "26179.4".

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume year 2000 as t, that is t =0.

Formula:

$A= A_0e^{rt}$

Where,

$A_0 = \ initial \ pop \\\\r= \ rate \ in \ decimal \\\\t= \ time \ in \ year$

for doubling time,

$r = \frac{log (2)}{t} \\$

$r = \frac{\log (2)}{ 40} \\\\r= \frac{0.301}{40}\\\\r= 0.007$

Given value:

$A = A_0e^{rt} \\\\$

$A_0 = 13000$

$t= 40 \ years$

when year is 2000, t=0 so, year is 2100 year as t = 100.

$A = 13000 \times e^{et}\\\\A = 13000 \times e^{e \times t}\\\\A = 13000 \times e^{0.007 \times 100}\\\\A = 13000 \times e^{0.7}\\\\A= 13000\times 2.0138\\\\A = 26179.4$
