of the 90 gallons a average person uses a day,30% is used out doors.Mason wants to know how much water is used indoors
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

63 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 30% of water is used outdoors, that leaves 70% to be used indoors. Since an average person uses 90 gallons, all we need to do is fine 70% of 90 gallons. To do this, we have to multiply 90 by 0.7:

90 * 0.7 = 63

In conclusion, 63 gallons of water are used indoors.

The difference of two positive numbers is 5 and the sum of their squares is 233. What are the numbers?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

13 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a-b = 5

==> a = b+5

a^2 + b^2 = 233

plug in a = b+5: (b+5)^2 + b^2 = 233

b^ + 10b + 25 + b^2 = 233

2b^2 + 10b -208 = 0

use the quadratic formula:

b = 8 or -13 (-13 doesn't work cuz it asks for positive numbers)

so if b = 8, then a = 5+b = 5+8 = 13

A rectangle has an area of 48 in^2. Every dimension of the rectangleis multiplied by a scale factor, and the new rectangle has a
jeka57 [31]

Let the dimensions of the first rectangle be L and W.  Then L*W = 48 in^2.

If we multiply both dimensions of this first rectangle by scale factor f, we get

f*L * f^W = 12 in^2.  Our job is to determine the scale factor, f.

Note that f^2*L*W = 12 in^2, and that LW = 48 in^2.

Therefore, the above equation becomes f^2*(48 in^2) = 12 in^2.

Dividing both sides by (48 in^2), we get f^2 = 1/4.

Solving for the scale factor, we get f = √(1/4) = 1/2.

The scale factor is 1/2.
