Answer: $80\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by the <u>Rule of Three</u>, which is a mathematical rule to find out an amount that is with another quantity given in the same relation as other two also known.

In this case, the 25 ounce drink represents the $100 \%$ . So, if Mark drinks 5 ounces, this means he has 20 ounces left and we have to find the percent this represents:

$25 oz$ ------- $100\%$

$20 oz$ -------- $?$

$?=\frac{(20 oz)(100\%)}{25 oz}$

$?=80\%$ This is the percent of the drink Mark has left

A ship anchored in a port has a ladder which hangs over the side. The length of the ladder is 200cm, the distance between each r

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8 h

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length of the ladder = 200 cm

distance between each rung = 20 cm

rate = 10 cm/h

fifth rung = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the total distance the tide must rise

distance = 20 cm x 4

= 80 cm because the first rung touches the water

2.- Calculate the time

rate = distance / time

-Solve for time

time = distance / rate

-Substitution

time = 80 cm / 10cm/h

-result

time = 8 h

a ball is thrown with a slingshot at a velocity of 110ft/sec at an angle of 20 degrees above the ground from a height of 4.5 ft.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

$t=2.47\ s$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that models the height of the ball in feet as a function of time is

$h(t) = h_0 + s_0t -16t ^ 2$

Where $h_0$ is the initial height, $s_0$ is the initial velocity and t is the time in seconds.

We know that the initial height is:

$h_0 = 4.5\ ft$

The initial speed is:

$s_0 = 110sin(20\°)\\\\s_0 = 37.62\ ft/s$

So the equation is:

$h (t) = 4.5 + 37.62t -16t ^ 2$

The ball hits the ground when when $h(t) = 0$

$4.5 + 37.62t -16t ^ 2 = 0$

We use the quadratic formula to solve the equation for t

For a quadratic equation of the form

$at^2 +bt + c$

The quadratic formula is:

$t=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}$

In this case

$a= -16\\\\b=37.62\\\\c=4.5$

Therefore

$t=\frac{-37.62\±\sqrt{(37.62)^2 -4(-16)(4.5)}}{2(-16)}$

$t_1=-0.114\ s\\\\t_2=2.47\ s$

We take the positive solution.

Finally the ball takes 2.47 seconds to touch the ground

What values of b satisfy 4(3b + 2)2 = 64?

Vikentia [17]

Given the equation 4(3b + 2)² = 64, dividing both sides of the equation by 4, we have (3b + 2)² = 16 and getting the square root of both sides, (3b + 2) = 4 and (3b + 2) = -4 We can solve for b for each equation and have 3b = 2 | 3b = -6 b = 2/3 | b = -2 Therefore, the values of b are 2/3 and -2 and from the choices, the answer is <span>A: b = 2/3 and b = -2.</span>
