Answer:

Associative property: a + (b + c), a – (b – c) ≠ (a – b) – c, a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c, and a ÷ (b ÷ c) ≠ (a ÷ b) ÷ c

When a = ½ and b = ¾

Now, for checking a × b = b × a, consider LHS and RHS.

LHS = a × b = ½ × ¾ = ⅜

RHS = b × a = ¾ × ½ = ⅜

Thus, LHS = RHS (Hence proved)

A conical pile of road salt has a diameter of 112 feet and a slant height of 65 feet. After a storm, the linear dimensions of th

QveST [7]

we know that

the volume of a cone is equal to

$V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h$

in this problem

the radius is equal to

$r= \frac{112}{2}= 56ft$

1) Find the height of the cone before the storm

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem find the height

$h^{2} = l^{2}-r^{2}$

$l=65 ft$

$h^{2} = 65^{2}-56^{2}$

$h^{2} = 1,089$

$h=33 ft$

2) Find the volume before the storm

$V= \frac{1}{3}*\pi* 56^{2}*33$

$V=34,496\pi\ ft^{3}$

3) Find the volume after the storm

After a storm, the linear dimensions of the pile are 1/3 of the original dimensions

r=(56/3) ft

h=(33/3)=11 ft

$V= \frac{1}{3}*\pi* (56/3)^{2}*11$

$V= 1,277.63\pi\ ft^{3}$

4) Find how this change affect the volume of the pile

Divide the volume after the storm by the volume before the storm

$\frac{1,277.63 \pi }{34,496 \pi } = \frac{1}{27}$

therefore

the answer part a) is

The volume of the pile after the storm is $\frac{1}{27}$ times the original volume

Part b) Estimate the number of lane miles that were covered with salt

5) Find the amount of salt that was used during the storm

$=34,496 \pi - 1,277.63 \pi \\= 33.218.37 \pi \\= 104,358.59\ ft^{3}$

6) Find the pounds of road salt used

$104,358.59*80=8,348,687.2\ pounds$

7) Find the number of lane miles that were covered with salt

$8,348,687.2/350=23,853.39 \ lane\ miles$

therefore

the answer part b) is

the number of lane miles that were covered with salt is $23,853.39 \ lane\ miles$

Part c) How many lane miles can be covered with the remaining salt? Round your answer to the nearest lane mile

the remaining salt is equal to $1,277.63\pi\ ft^{3}$

$1,277.63\pi\ ft^{3}=4,013.79\ ft^{3}$

8) Find the pounds of road salt

$4,013.79*80=321,103.20\ pounds$

9) Find the number of lane miles

$321,103.20/350=917.44 \ lane\ miles$

therefore

the answer part c) is

the number of lane miles is $917 \ lane\ miles$

It takes 45 minutes to drive to the nearest bowling alley taking city streets going

Savatey [412]

Answer:

21 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Taking CITY STREET:

Time taken to drive to nearest bowling alley = 45 minutes = 45/60 = 0.75 hours

Speed of travel = 30 miles per hour

Taking FREEWAY:

speed of travel = 65miles per hour

If the distance to bowling alley is the same along both routes, The time taken along FREEWAY will be :

Distance to bowling alley taking city center :

Speed = distance / time

30 mph = distance / 0.75 hour

Distance = 30 × 0. 75 = 22.5 miles

Since distance is the same :

Time taken along FREEWAY :

Time taken = distance / speed

Time taken = 22.5 / 65 = 0.3461538 hour

Converting to minutes :

0.3461538 × 60 = 20.769 minutes

= 21 minutes ( to the nearest minute)

Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off. The sales tax in her county is 6%. Let y represent the original price of the

klio [65]

Answer:

The expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game is

1.06(0.88 y) ⇒ (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the price of an item is discounted, that mean its new price will be less its initial price

The taxes on item, makes its new price greater than the initial price because tax is add

Let us solve the problem

∵ Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off

→ That means the new price will (100% - 12%) of the initial price

∵ y represented the initial price of the game

→ Multiply y by (100% - 12%) to get the new price

∴ The new price = y (100% - 12%)

∴ The new price = y (88%)

→ Change 88% to normal number by divide it by 100

∴ The new price = y ( $\frac{88}{100}$ )

∴ The new price = 0.88 y

∵ The sales tax in her county is 6%

→ That means the final cost will be (100% + 6%) of 0.88 y

∴ The final cost = (100% + 6%) × (0.88 y)

∴ The final cost = 106% × (0.88 y)

→ Change 106% to normal number by divide it by 100

∴ The final cost = $\frac{106}{100}$ × (0.88 y)

∴ The final cost = 1.06(0.88 y)

The expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game is 1.06(0.88 y)
