Mary's dog weighs 185 pounds. Her dog needs to lose between 9 and 15 pounds. Between what two percentages, rounded to the nearest whole numbers, should Mary's dog lose weight with respect to its current weight of 185 pounds. Select your answers from the drop-down lists.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5-8% of the weight

Step-by-step explanation:

The dog needs to lose a weight within the values 9-15 pounds

To answer this question, what we just need to do is to know the percentage of 185 pounds that is 9 and the percentage of 185 pounds that is 15

The percentage decrease can be calculated using the formula;

(difference)/old value * 100%

For the 9 pound loss, we have ;

9/185 * 100% = 4.86 which is approximately 5%

For the 15 pound loss, we have;

15/185 * 100% = 8.11% which is approximately 8%

Thus, the dog is losing between 5-8% of its weight

The daily low temperature in Guangzhou, China Varies over time in a periodic way that can be modeled by a trigonometric function. The period of change is exactly one year. the temperature peaks around July 26 at 78°F and has its minimum half a year later at 49°F. assuming a year is exactly 365 days July 26 is 206/365 of a year after January 1. Find the formula of the trigonometric function that models the daily low temperature T in Guangzhou t years after January 1, 2015 defined the function using radians

Answers

Answer:

  T(t) = 14.5cos(2π(t -206/365)) +63.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The function can be written as ...

  T = A·cos(2π(t -206/365)) +B

where A is half the difference of the high and low temperature values, and B is the average of the high and low temperature values.

  A = (78-49)/2 = 29/2 = 14.5

  B = (78 +49)/2 = 127/2 = 63.5

The value 206/365 is the horizontal right shift of the peak of the function. That makes the peak occur on July 26, as required.

Filling in these values gives us the function ...

  T(t) = 14.5cos(2π(t -206/365)) +63.5

Find the arc length of major arc GH. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

42.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the arc is circumference of the circle - length of minor arc GH

circumference of circle = 2 * π * r = 2 * π * 9.1 = 18.2 π cm

The length of the minor arc = angle/360 * 2 * π * r

Now this is tricky, the angle is 360-265 = 95

The length of the minor arc = 95/360 * 2 * π * 9.1 = 4.80 π

Length of major arc = 18.2 π -4.8 π = 13.4 * π = 13.4 * 22/7 = 42.11cm

A recipe for trail mix calls for 2 3/4 cups of peanuts, 1 2/3 cups of cashews, and 1 1/6 cups of almonds.
How many cups of nuts are used in all?

Answers

Answer:

5 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the total amount of nuts used in all, what we do is to add all the fractions together

But we convert them to mixed fraction to make the work easier;

2 3/4 = 11/4

1 2/3 = 5/3

1 1/6 = 7/6

Adding all, we have;

11/4 + 5/3 + 7/6 = (33+ 20 + 14)/12 = 67/12 = 5 7/12

Answer:

4 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

2 3/4 + (1 2/3 + 1/6) = 2 3/4 + (1 4/6 + 1/6) = 2 3/4 + 1 5/6 = 2 9/12 + 1 10/12 = 3 19/12 = 4 7/12

A circle has centre (0, 0) and it passes through the point (5, -3)
Find the radius of the circle, in surd form.

Answers

Answer:

radius = [tex]\sqrt{34}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius r is the distance from the centre to a point on the circle.

Use the distance formula to calculate r

r = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 3)

r = [tex]\sqrt{(5-0)^2+(- 3-0)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{5^2+(-3)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{25+9}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{34}[/tex]

Maxine and Sammie have the same size lawn. Maxine can mow the lawn in 24 minutes and Sammie can mow the lawn in 36 minutes. At what time will Sammie have twice as much lawn to mow as Maxine?

Maxine and Sammie have to also mow their parking strips that are the same size. Maxine can mow the parking strip in 6 minutes and Sammie can mow the parking strip in 9 minutes. At what time will Sammie have twice as much grass to mow as Maxine?

Answers

Answer: A) 18.2 minutes

B) 4.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Maxine can mow one lawn in 24 minutes, so the rate of work is:

1/24 of the lawn per minute.

Sammie can mow one lanw in 36 minutes, so the rate of work is:

1/36 of the lawn per minute.

The amount of the lawn that each has left to lawn by the minute x is:

Maxine = 1 -(1/24)*x

Sammie = 1 - (1/36)*x

we want to find the value of x such that:

2*(1 - (1/24)*x) = 1 - *(1/36)*x

which means that the amount that Sammie has left is two times the amount that Maxine has left to mow.

2 - (1/12)*x = 1 - (1/36)*x

2 - 1 = (1/12 - 1/36)*x

1/0.055 = x = 18.2

by the minute 18.2

B) Similar to before, here the rates are:

For Maxine, R = 1/6

For Sammie, R = 1/9

The amount they have left to mow by minute x is:

Maxine = 1 - (1/6)*x

Sammie = 1 - (1/9)*x

We want to solve, similar to before.

2( 1 - (1/6)*x) = 1 - (1/9)*x

2 - (1/3)*x = 1 - (1/9)*x

2 - 1 = (1/3 - 1/9)*x

1 = (2/9)*x

1*9/2 = x = 4.5

So here the solution is 4.5 minutes.

Answer:

`He will never have more grass to maw than Maxine because they do the strips the same size, and their yard is the same size, so they never have more to mow than the other person.

Answer: The price of a fruit bowl at the cafe is $3

Step-by-step explanation:

$3 in the price of a Fruit bowl at the cafe.

What is the price of a fruit bowl at the cafe?

According to the given In the question,

Let,

price of a Salad = Sl

price of a fruit bowl = Fb

Fb price of a sandwich = Sd

Sl + Fb+sd=$12         ..1

2 SI + 2 Sd = $14       ..2

Sl + 3Pb Fb = $14      ..3

from equation 2

Sl = 7 - Sd

from equation 3

7 - Sd + 3Fb = 14

Sd  = 3Fb - 7

from equation 1

14- 3Fb+Fb+ 2(3Fb-7)=12

14- 2 Pb +6Fb-14=12

4Fb = 12

Fb = 3
