If 35% of a natural area is to be developed, leaving 500 acres untouched, how many acres are to be developed?

2 answers:

8 0

Given that the 35% of area has been developed, the percentage of land that has not been developed is:
100-35
=65%
hence the acres of land that are to be developed will be:
35/65*500
=269.23 acres
the answer is 269.23

Answer:

Area to be developed = 269.23 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there is A acres natural area to be developed.

If 35% of A acres is developed then untouched area will be (100 - 35 = 65%)

Now it has been given in the question that 65% of A (untouched area) = 500 acres

$A.\frac{65}{100}=500$

$A=\frac{500}{0.65}=769.23$

So area of the natural field = 769.23 acres

Now 35% of the natural area which is to be developed = A×35%

$=769.23.\frac{35}{100}=(769.23)(.35)=269.23$

Area of the natural area to be developed is 269.23 acres

What input value produces the same output value for the two functions on the graph ?

Andrej [43]

we know that

The intersection point of both graphs is a common point for both functions, for which for the same input value, both functions will have the same output value.

the point of intersection is $(4,3)$

for an input value equal to $4$

the output value for both functions is $3$

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

Cylinder A has a volume of 360 cm3. Cylinder B has a base and height identical to that of cylinder B, but leans to the right in

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

I think the volume of cylinder B will be the same as that of cylinder A that is 360cm³
This is because the volume of the cylinder is dependent on the base and the perpendicular height, therefore, the slanting of the cylinder wont change its volume

Jabari owns 100 shares of Stock A and 45 shares of Stock B. For the past month, his stocks have been fluctuating inversely each

aniked [119]

This is how we solved and make the equation.
Stock A = 100
Stock B = 45

For the past months, his stocks inversely decreased.
Stock A = m cents / share
Stock B = n cents * share

So the equation is
= 100 (0.01m) + 45 (0.01n)
<span>= m + 0.45n</span>

Sketch the region of integration for the following integral. ∫π/40∫6/cos(θ)0f(r,θ)rdrdθ

solong [7]

Answer:

The graph is sketched by considering the integral. The graph is the region bounded by the origin, the line x = 6, the line y = x/6 and the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

We sketch the integral ∫π/40∫6/cos(θ)0f(r,θ)rdrdθ. We consider the inner integral which ranges from r = 0 to r = 6/cosθ. r = 0 is located at the origin and r = 6/cosθ is located on the line x = 6 (since x = rcosθ here x= 6)extends radially outward from the origin. The outer integral ranges from θ = 0 to θ = π/4. This is a line from the origin that intersects the line x = 6 ( r = 6/cosθ) at y = 1 when θ = π/2 . The graph is the region bounded by the origin, the line x = 6, the line y = x/6 and the x-axis.
