Answer:

Thus, option “c” 10% is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of students that like dubstep = 30%

The percentage of students that like trance music = 25%

The percentage of student that wants only house music = 20%

The percentage of students that like bot dubstep and trance = 15%

Now we have to find the percentage of students that like trance music but nor dubstep.

The percentage of students that like the trance music but nor dubstep = 100% - 30% – 25 % - 20% - 15%

The percentage of students that like trance music but nor dubstep = 10%

Thus, option “c” 10% is correct.

The length of the shadow of a pole on level ground increases by 90m when the angle of elevation of the sun changes from 58° to 3
viva [34]

Answer:

119.45 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

When angle of elevation of the sun changes from 58° to 36° the length of shadow of a pole increases by 90 m.

To find:

Length of pole = ?

Solution:

Kindly refer to the attached image.

\triangle ABC represents the 1st angle of elevation of sun i.e.  58°

\triangle ABD represents the 2nd angle of elevation of sun i.e.  36°

Change in shadow is represented by CD = 90 m

Let height of pole, AB = h m

Let side BC = x m

Now, let us apply tangent rules in \triangle ABC, \triangle ABD one by one:

tan\theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\Rightarrow tan58^\circ=\dfrac{AB}{BC}\\\Rightarrow tan58^\circ=\dfrac{h}{x}\\\Rightarrow x = 0.624h ..... (1)

tan36^\circ = \dfrac{h}{x+90}

Putting value of x using equation (1):

tan36^\circ = \dfrac{h}{0.624h+90}\\\Rightarrow 0.726\times 0.624h+0.726\times 90 = h\\\Rightarrow h-0.453h =65.34\\\Rightarrow \bold{h = 119.45\ m}

119.45 m is the height of pole.

a lunch stand makes a $.75 profit on each chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each caesar salad. On a typical weekday, it sells bet
tangare [24]

Answer:

<em>50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of Chef's salad is x and the number of Caesar salad is y

On a typical weekday, it sells between 40 and 60 Chefs salads and between 35 and 50 Caesar salads.

So, the two constraints are:  40\leq x\leq 60 and  35\leq y\leq 50

The total number sold has never exceed 100 salads. So, another constraint will be:   x+y\leq 100

According to the graph of the constraints, the vertices of the common shaded region are:  (40,35), (60,35), (60,40), (50,50) and (40,50)   <em>(Refer to the attached image for the graph)</em>

The lunch stand makes a $.75 profit on each Chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each Caesar salad. So, the profit function will be:  P=0.75x+1.20y

For  (40, 35) ,   P=0.75(40)+1.20(35)=72

For  (60, 35) ,   P=0.75(60)+1.20(35)=87

For  (60, 40) ,   P=0.75(60)+1.20(40)=93

For  (50, 50) ,   P=0.75(50)+1.20(50)=97.5 <u><em>(Maximum)</em></u>

For  (40, 50) ,   P=0.75(40)+1.20(50)=90

Profit will be maximum when x=50 and y=50

Thus, 50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.

Wheel A has a diameter of 25.4 inches. Wheel B has a diameter of 22.5 inches. About how much farther will Wheel A travel in one
MissTica

Wheel A will travel a distance of approximately 9 in more than wheel B in one rotation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Diameter of wheel A, d₁ = 25.4 in

Radius of wheel A, r₁ = 12.7 in

Diameter of wheel B = 22.5 in

Radius of Wheel B, d₂ = 11.25 in

Distance travelled by A = ?

In one rotation, the distance travelled by a wheel is equal to its circumference.

Circumference of a wheel = 2πr

Circumference of wheel A = 2πr₁

                                            = 2 X 3.14 X 12.7 in

                                            = 80 in

Circumference of wheel B = 2πr₂

                                              = 2 X 3.14 X 11.25 in

                                              = 71 in

Therefore, wheel A will travel a distance of approximately 9 (80 - 71 in) in more than wheel B in one rotation.
