Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

50 x 50 would be 100 and 50kg=100% and 10 x 2 = 20 so you used 20% therefore you have 80% left.

Answer:

80% of sugar left.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we start of with 50 kg of sugar and we take away 10 kg of sugar, we are left with 50-10=40 kg of sugar.

To find the percentage of sugar left, we divide the decreased number by the original number.

\frac{40}{50} = \frac{4}{5} = 0.8

If we have a decimal and want to convert it to a percentage, we multiply it by 100.

0.8\cdot100=80

So, 80% of the sugar is left.

Hope this helped!

Which is a y-intercept of the continuous function in the table? (0, –6) (–2, 0) (–6, 0) (0, –2)
photoshop1234 [79]

Y- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the y- axis.

X- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the x- axis.

This means the coordinate of the point of intersection will always have the x point as 0. So any point of the form ( 0, y) is the y- intercept. Any point of the form (x,0) is the x- intercept.

Given point are :

(0,-6) : y intercept

(-2,0) : x intercept

(-6,0): x- intercept

(0,-2): y- intercept

A small ferryboat is 4.00 m wide and 6.00 m long. When a loaded truck pulls onto it, the boat sinks an additional 4.00 cm into t
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

F_w=9408\ N

Weight of the truck=9408 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Boat is experiencing the buoyant force as it is in the water and is sinking

According to the force balance in y direction. As both is floating, two forces balance each other:

F_b-F_w=0

where:

F_b is the buoyant force

F_w is the weight=mg

F_b=F_w        Eq (1)

Buoyant force is equal to the mass of water displaced * gravitational acceleration.

F_b=m_{water\ displaced}*g\\F_b=\rho Vg\\

Taking density of water to be 1000 Kg/m^3

F_b=1000*(6*4*4*10^{-2})*9.8\\F_b=9408 N

From Eq(1):

F_w=9408\ N

Weight of the truck=9408 N

Two professors at a nearby university want to co-author a new textbook in either economics or statistics. They feel that if they
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

0.3 or 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

The professors will only seek a smaller publisher if they cannot place the statistics book with a major publisher. If the probability of getting a major publisher is 40% and the probability of getting a smaller publisher is 50%, then the probability that the statistics book would wind up being placed with a smaller publisher is given by:

P=(1-P(major))*P(minor)\\P=(1-0.4)*0.5\\P=0.3

The probability is 0.3 or 30%.
