Answer:

741

Step-by-step explanation:

The farmer noticed 21 tagged moles out of the 420 moles he counted. This means that he counted 420-21 moles that didn't have a tag. The answer to that is 399. Then, the ratio is 399:21. That simplifies it to 19:1. Since he tagged 39, 19x39 would be the answer, which is 741.

A cup of coffee is cooling down such that its temperature is decreasing at a constant rate of 8% per minute. Let’s say the coffe
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Temperature after 1 minute = 184 ° F

Step-by-step explanation:

starting temperature = 200 °F

rate of decrease = 8% per minute

Temperature lost = 8% of 200 = 8/100 × 200 = 0.08 × 200 = 16 °F

It therefore means that after 1 minute, the cup of coffee loses 16 °F,

∴ Temperature after 1 minute = (starting temperature) - (lost temperature)

= 200 - 16 = 184 °F

What is CD?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

(C)18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Point G is the centroid of triangle ABC.
  • C is a vertex of the triangle
  • D is the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex.

From Centroid Theorems, we know that the distance from the centroid to the vertex is twice as long as the distance from the centroid to the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex.

Therefore:

CG=2DG

Let the length of segment  DG =x

The length of  segment CG is 6 units greater, therefore: CG=x+6

Substituting into CG=2DG:

x+6=2x

2x-x=6

x=6 Units

Therefore:

CD=CG+GD

=6+6+6

=18 Units

<u><em>The correct option is C.</em></u>
