Answer:

<u>22 counselors</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Ratio of campers to counselors in june:</u>

number of campers: 325

number of counselors: 26

Ratio = number of campers / number of counselors

Ratio = 325 campers / 26 counselors

<u />

<u>2. Ratio of campers to counselors in july:</u>

number of campers = 325 - 265 + 215 = 275

number of counselors = x (unknown)

Ratio = 275 campers / x

<u />

<u>3. Equivalent ratios:</u>

325 campers / 26 counselors = 275 campers / x

Solve for x:

x = (26counselors/325campers) × 275campers = 22 counselors ← answer

A set of speakers costs $22 and songs cost $1.25 each. The sales tax rate is 7.5%. The expression 0.075(22 + 1.25s) can be used

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1.65 + 0.09s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cost of speaker = $22

Cost per song = $1.25

Sales tax rate = 7.5%

Expression to obtain the amount of sales tax on entire purchase : 0.075(22 + 1.25s)

Expanding the expression :

0.075(22 + 1.25s)

(0.075 * 22) + (0.075 * 1.25s)

1.65 + 0.09375s

Rounding to the nearest hundredth :

Sales tax on entire purchase :

1.65 + 0.09s

The 3rd degree Taylor polynomial for cos(x) centered at a = π 2 is given by, cos(x) = − (x − π/2) + 1/6 (x − π/2)3 + R3(x). Usin

Answer:

The cosine of 86º is approximately 0.06976.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third degree Taylor polynomial for the cosine function centered at $a = \frac{\pi}{2}$ is:

$\cos x \approx -\left(x-\frac{\pi}{2} \right)+\frac{1}{6}\cdot \left(x-\frac{\pi}{2} \right)^{3}$

The value of 86º in radians is:

$86^{\circ} = \frac{86^{\circ}}{180^{\circ}}\times \pi$

$86^{\circ} = \frac{43}{90}\pi\,rad$

Then, the cosine of 86º is:

$\cos 86^{\circ} \approx -\left(\frac{43}{90}\pi-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)+\frac{1}{6}\cdot \left(\frac{43}{90}\pi-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)^{3}$

$\cos 86^{\circ} \approx 0.06976$

The cosine of 86º is approximately 0.06976.

tiny-mole [99]

The rule is -3, then +2

24-3 = 21
21 + 2 = 23
23-3= 20
20+2= 22
22-3= 19
19+2 = 21
21-3= 18
18+2 = 20
