*PLEASE ANSWER TY* What is the density of a 50-gram pyramid with rectangular base 4 cm x 8 cm and height 10 cm?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{0.47 g}{cm^{3} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

→ First work out volume of pyramid using the formula  [tex]\frac{lwh}{3}[/tex]  where 'l' is the length, 'w' is the width and 'h' is the height

[tex]\frac{lwh}{3}[/tex]  ⇔ [tex]\frac{4*8*10}{3}[/tex] ⇔  [tex]\frac{320}{3}[/tex] ⇔ 320 ÷ 3 = 106.666666667

→ Volume of pyramid = 106.666666667. Substitute this value into the density formula

Density = Mass ÷ Volume

Density = 50 ÷ 106.666666667

Density = 0.46875 to 1 decimal place is 0.47

Sally is swimming in a race that has 5 laps. Swimming 2 lengths of the pool
counts as one lap. If Sally is halfway through the fourth lap, what fractional
part of the total laps in the race is left for Sally to finish?

Answers

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally has to run 5 laps(2000m)

One lap = 400m  

So we multiply 3.5( 3 1/2) [this the the distance Sally ran] by 400

The answer we get is 1400( this the total distance in meters she ran)

Next we subtract 1400( total distance she ran in meters) from 2000(total distance in meters she needs to complete.

The answer we get is 600 meters( this is the distance she is left with)

As a fraction is 600/2000

Name four fractions between 5/11 and 5/6

Answers

5/10, 5/9, 5/8, 5/7.

These are all between 5/11 and 5/6.

Answer:

6/11,  20/33,  2/3,  25/33  (answers vary)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to convert both of these fractions to the same denominator. To do that, we need to find the least common denominator for both fractions.

6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72

11: 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77

The LCM of 6 and 11 is 66. (6 * 11 = 66)

Now, we multiply 5/6 by 11/11 and 5/11 by 6/6.

[tex]\frac{5}{6} *\frac{11}{11}=\frac{55}{66}\\\\\\\frac{5}{11} *\frac{6}{6} =\frac{30}{66}[/tex]

Now, we can just choose four numbers between 30 and 55 and get our answer (remember to simplify!).

[tex]\frac{36}{66} =\frac{6}{11}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{40}{66}=\frac{20}{33}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{44}{66} =\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{50}{66} =\frac{25}{33}[/tex]

Find the median of the data in the dot plot below.

Answers

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle value of the data arranged in ascending order. If there is no exact value in the middle then it is the average of the values either side of the middle.

The data is arranged in ascending order within the dot plot

There are 10 values in the data set

Thus the median is between the fifth and sixth values.

Counting from the left (35)

The fifth value = 39 and the sixth value = 41, thus

median = [tex]\frac{39+41}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{80}{2}[/tex] = 40

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

35 ,  38, 38 , 39 , 39, 41, 42 , 43, 43, 44

Total number of data = 10

Number of data is even. so, median is the average of (n/2)th term & ([tex]\frac{n}{2}+1[/tex] ) middle term,

Median = average of  5th and 6th term

            = (39 + 41)/2 = 80/2 = 40

What is the equation that is perpendicular to the line y=2x-3 and passes through the point (-6,5)? Show all of your work.

Answers

Answer: y=(-1/2)x+5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x+3

This equation is in the slope-intercept form y=mx+b

m is the slope.

b is the y-intercept, the value of y when x=0.

m=2

The slope of the perpendicular line is -1/2.

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

(y-4)=(-1/2)(x-3)

y-4=(-1/2)x+1.5

add 4 to both sides

4+y-4=(-1/2)x+1.5+4

y=(-1/2)x+5.5

Answer:

y = -1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal (opposite sign, and reciprocal)

The line's slope is 2, so the perpendicular line's slope will be -1/2.

Now, we know part of the equation: y = -1/2x + b

Plug in the point given:

5 = -1/2(-6) + b

5 = 3 + b

2 = b

Now, we can plug in b into the equation:

y = -1/2x + 2

The number of radians in a 720-degree angle can be
written as an, where a is a constant. What is the
value of a ?

Answers

Answer:

a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

When going from degrees to radians, 180 degrees is always going to equal π radians

That means 2π would be 360 degrees, and 4π would be 720

And since we're trying to find a in aπ when it's a 720 degree angle, we can conclude that a=4

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

π rad= 180°

Then:

720° = 4*180° = 4π radian

The value of a:

4π = aπ ⇒ a= 4

Of a group of boys and girls at Central Middle School’s after-school party, 15 girls left early to play in a volleyball game. The ratio of boys to girls then remaining was 2 to 1. Later, 45 boys left for a football game. The ratio of girls to boys was then 5 to 1. How many students attended the party?

Answers

Answer:

  90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g and b represent the number of girls and boys attending, respectively.

After 15 girls left, the ratio of boys to girls was ...

  b/(g -15) = 2/1

  b = 2g -30 . . . . . multiply by (g-15)

__

After 45 boys left, the ratio of girls to boys was ...

  (g -15)/(b -45) = 5/1

  g -15 = 5b -225 . . . . . . multiply by (b-45)

  g = 5b -210

Using the latter to substitute into the former, we have ...

  b = 2(5b -210) -30

  450 = 9b . . . . . add 450-b

  50 = b . . . . . . 50 boys attended

  g = 5(50) -210 = 40 . . . . . 40 girls attended

The number of students who attended the party was 50 +40 = 90.

_____

Check

After 15 girls left, the ratio of boys to girls was 50/25 = 2/1.

After 45 boys left, the ratio of girls to boys was 25/5 = 5/1.

Answer:

let b = original number of boys

let g = original number of girls

:

Of a group of boys and girls at Central Middle School's after-school party, 15 girls left early to play in a volleyball game.

The ratio of boys to girls then remaining was 2 to 1.

b%2F%28%28g-15%29%29 = 2%2F1

Cross multiply

b = 2(g-15)

b = 2g - 30

:

Later, 45 boys left for a football game. The ratio of girls to boys was then 5 to 1.

%28%28g-15%29%29%2F%28%28b-45%29%29 = 5%2F1

cross multiply

g - 15 = 5(b-45)

 

g - 15 = 5b - 225

g = 5b - 225 + 15

g = 5b - 210

Replace b with (2g-30)

g = 5(2g-30) - 210

g = 10g - 150 - 210

g = 10g - 360

360 = 10g - g

360 = 9g

g = 360/9

g = 40 girls originally

find b

b = 2(40) - 30

b = 50 boys originally

You also could find this out by subtracting the area that is missing.

Answer:

The volume of the container is 56 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, I split this figure vertically at the corner between the two steps. We know that the formula for volume of a container is V= l*w*h. The first, smaller portion of the container has a length of 4, a width of 1, and a height of 2. 4*1*2= 8 in^3

The second, larger portion of this container has a length of 4, (look at the side of the first portion), a width of 3, (4-1=3), and a height of 4. 4*3*4= 48 in^3.

Finally, add together the volumes of the two portions and that is the volume of the whole figure. V= 56 in^3

Answers

Answer:

x = 0, x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 21 = 5x + 7(x - 3)

First, foil out the right side --> 5x² - 15x + 7x - 21, which simplifies down to 5x² - 8x - 21.

Move the 12x - 21 to the right side by subtracting --> 0 = 5x² - 20x.

Factor out a 5x --> 0 = 5x(x - 4)

If you want to solve for x, set 5x = 0 and x - 4 = 0.

For 5x = 0, divide both sides by 5 to isolate the x --> x = 0/5, which simplifies down to x = 0.

For x - 4 = 0, add 4 to both sides to isolate the x --> x = 0 + 4, which simplifies down to x = 4.

Plug the values back into the original equation to check if it works

12(0) -21 = 5(0) + 7((0) - 3) --> -21 = -21

12(4) - 21 = 5(4) + 7((4) -3) --> 27 = 27

Find the value of r. A. 24 B. 12 C. 2 D. 3

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{r=3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use SAS ≅ SAS congruence to validate that the triangles are similar (both share the same side, have another congruent side, and have a congruent angle).

Because the sides are congruent, set them equal to each other and solve for r.

18 - 2r = 4r

18 = 6r

3 = r ⇒ [tex]\boxed{\bold r = 3}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is D.

Answer:

r = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here Triangle ALR is divided precisely in half by the vertical side LU.  The two triangles thus formed are therefore congruent.

Thus, 18 - 2r = 4r, and 6r = 18.  Then r = 3.

A building casts a 33-m shadow when the sun is at an angle of 27° the vertical. How tall is the building to the
nearest meter? How far is it from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow?

Answers

Answer:

1. EF = 65m

2. DF = 73m

Step-by-step explanation:

1. EF = height of the building = h = 33 / tan 27 = 65m

2. DF = sqrt (65² + 33²) = 73m

The building is 64.76 meters long and 73 meters far from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow.

From the triangle DEF, we find the value of EF by using tan function.

tan function is a ratio of opposite side and adjacent side.

tan(27)= 33/FE

0.5095 = 33/FE

Apply cross multiplication:

FE=33/0.5095

FE=64.76

Now DF is the hypotenuse, we find it by using pythagoras theorem.

DF²=DE²+EF²

DF²=33²+64.76²

DF²=1089+4193.85

DF²=5282.85

Take square root on both sides:

DF=72.68

In a triangle the the sum of three angles is 180 degrees.

∠D + 27 +90 =180

∠D + 117 =180

Subtract 117 from both sides:

∠D =63 degrees.

Hence, the building is 64.76 meters long and 73 meters far from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow.
