Answer: 7 radios

Step-by-step explanation:

The following can be deduced from the question:

Number of radios tested = 125 radios

Percentage acceptable = 60%

Numbers acceptable:

= 60% × 125

= 0.6 × 125

= 75 radios

Numbers rejected = 125 - 75 = 50 radio

We are further told that the inspector tested 25 more radios, this will be:

Number of radios tested

= 125 + 25 = 150 radios

Percentage acceptable = 62%

Numbers acceptable

= 62% × 150

= 0.62 × 150

= 93 radios

Numbers rejected= 150 - 93 = 57 radios

The number of these 25 radios that were rejected will be:

= 57 - 50

= 7 radios

A recipe calls for 5 ounces of vinegar and 10 ounces of oil. Daren is making dressing with 9 ounces of vinegar using the same ra
g100num [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set this up as ratio of vinegar to oil in fraction form:

\frac{v}{o}:\frac{5}{10}

That's what we're given.  If we are looking to find how much oil he needs if he's using 9 ounces of vinegar, then 9 goes on top with the vinegar stuff and x goes on bottom as the unknown amount of oil:

\frac{v}{o}:\frac{5}{10}=\frac{9}{x}

Cross multiply to get

5x = 90 and

x = 18

Which you probably could do without the proportions.  If he is using 5 ounces of vinegar and double that amount of oil, then it just makes sense that if he uses 9 ounces of vinegar he will double that amount in oil to use 18 ounces.

A 12-centimeter rod is held between a flashlight and a wall as shown. Find the length of the shadow on
choli [55]

Answer:

48 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance of rod from the wall = 45 cm

Distance of rod from the light = 15 cm

Length of rod = 12 cm

We can see that <DAM and <BAF are equal

Also, <DMA and <BFM are equal because they are corresponding angles

To find the length of the shadow, let's take the equation

\frac{DM}{BF} = \frac{AM}{A.F}

Where.:

DM = ½ of length of the rod = ½*12 = 6

A.F = 15 + 45 = 60 cm

AM = 15 cm

Therefore,

\frac{DM}{BF} = \frac{AM}{A.F}

= \frac{6}{BF} = \frac{15}{60}

Cross multiplying, we have:

15 * B.F = 60 * 6

15 * B.F = 360

BF = \frac{360}{15}

BF = 24 cm

The shadow on the wall =

2 * BF

= 2 * 24

= 48 cm

The shadow on the wall is 48 cm

According to the scatterplot below, which statement is correct? A graph titled Courses Completed versus Remaining Credits Needed
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a graph titled Courses Completed versus Remaining Credits Needed to Graduate has courses completed on the x-axis and Credits need to graduate on the y-axis.

Points plotted are (4, 110), (8, 76), (16, 63), (20, 53), (24, 33).

Since, x-axis represents the courses completed, therefore the input, or independent variable is courses completed.

Since, y-axis represents the Credits need to graduate, therefore the output, or dependent variable is Credits need to graduate.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
