Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

x=\frac{d}{2} =\frac{2.4}{2}  =1.2\\

p=\frac{x^{2} }{4y}

p=\frac{(1.2)^{2} }{4(0.9)}

p=0.4

A map shows the town where Niko lives. The actual distance from Niko's house to his school is 3 miles, and measures one-half inc
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

<u>The distance of the library in the map is 0.67 inches (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information given for solving this question:

Scale factor for the map of the town = 0.5 inches: 3 miles

Distance from Niko's house to his school = 3 miles

Distance from Niko's school to the library = 4 miles

2. Let's find the distance of the library in the map

Distance of the library in the map = Distance of the library * Scale factor

Distance of the library in the map = 4 miles * 0.5 inches:3 miles

Distance of the library in the map = (2 miles * inches)/3 miles

Distance of the library in the map = 2 inches/3 (Miles are cancelled in the numerator and in the denominator)

<u>Distance of the library in the map = 0.67 inches (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>

Sue’s Corner Market has a markup of 60% on bottled water. If the market sells a bottle of water for $2, find the original amount
lakkis [162]

Markup is the amount added to the cost price of goods to cover overhead and profit.

Sue’s Corner Market has a markup of 60% on bottled water.

Let us say original price was $x.

Now price after markup is $2.

So we can make an equation like:

original price + markup price = price after markup

x + 60% of x =2

x + 0.6x =2

1.6x =2

dividing both sides by 1.6

x= 1.25

So original price was 1.25 dollars.

If rounded to the nearest dime, what is the greatest amount of money the rounds to $105.40? What is the least amount of money th
NISA [10]
<span>The answer is: the least amount is 105.35 and the greatest amount is 105.44. If the number after the one you want to round is 5 or bigger, you need to round up the number. For instance, 105.35 is rounded to 105.4 which is equal to 105.40. If the number after the one you want to round is smaller than 5, you need to round down the number. For instance, 105.44 is rounded to 105.4 which is equal to 105.40.</span>

E varies directly with the square root of C. If E=40 when C=25, find: C when E = 10.4
sukhopar [10]

Answer: C = 1.69

Step-by-step explanation:

E is proportional to √C

To remove proportionality, introduce a constant (k).

E = k × √C

From question,

E = 40 and C = 25

So,

40 = k ×√25

40 = k × 5

k = 8

Now,

C = ?

E = 10.4

k = 8

E = k × √C

10.4 = 8 × √C

10.4 / 8 = √C

( 10.4 / 8 ) ^ 2 = C

C = 1.69
