Answer:

The gestation period of rhinos ​(487 ​days) is​ 121. 3 percent longer than the gestation period of bears ​(220 ​days).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gestation period of rhinos = 487  ​days

Gestation period  of bears = 220 ​days

To Find:

Percentage increase = ?

Solution:

The percentage increase =\frac{ \text{new value} - \text{final value} }{\text{final value}} \times 100

On substituting the  values,

= \frac{ 487 - 220}{220}\times 100

=\frac{267}{220}\times 100

=>1.213 \times 100

=> 121.3 %

Ana wrote four statements to describe circle S. Statements: AB is a diameter. ST , SP and SQ are radii. SQ = 12 cm PQ = 12 cm Ar
wel

<em><u>Two</u></em> of the four statements that Ana wrote are <em><u>correct</u></em>. Number 1, "AB is a diameter" is incorrect, and so is number 3, "SQ = 12 cm". AB is not a diameter because it is instead a chord. "ST , SP and SQ are radii" is correct because they are straight lines from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle, which is the exact definition of radius. The third statemet is incorrect because since ST is a radius and it equals 6, that means all radii are equal to 6. SQ is a radius of circle S, so it should also equal 6, not 12. The last statement is correct because PQ is a diameter of circle S. By rule, the diameter is always equal to double of the radius. The radius is 6, so 6 x 2= 12.

Alexus [3.1K]
Given:

6 out of 2000 students quit community college due to serious health issues.
$10,000 insurance company offer
$60 per year

Based on the data, there are 6 students who will be given the $10,000 insurance per year. So they need

6 * 10,000 = $60,000 to make a break-even on their insurance offer

If a student pays $60 per year, they should have

$60,000 / $60 = 1,000 students who will pay per year to reach the break-even mark of their investment. If the number of students will exceed 1,000, the company will begin to earn.
