the Vikings play 36 games this year at midseason they had won 16 games. How many of the remaining games must they win in order t

o win at least 80% of all their games

80% of their games are 28.8, or 29 games (since they need to win at least 80%). They have already won 16. 29-16 is 13.

Therefore, they need to win 13 more games.

P.S. The midseason statement is irrelevant.

Steve likes to entertain friends at parties with "wire tricks." Suppose he takes a piece of wire 60 inches long and cuts it into

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a) the length of the wire for the circle = $(\frac{60\pi }{\pi+4}) in$

b)the length of the wire for the square = $(\frac{240}{\pi+4}) in$

c) the smallest possible area = 126.02 in² into two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

If one piece of wire for the square is y; and another piece of wire for circle is (60-y).

Then; we can say; let the side of the square be b

so 4(b)=y

b= $\frac{y}{4}$

Area of the square which is L² can now be said to be;

$A_S=(\frac{y}{4})^2 = \frac{y^2}{16}$

On the otherhand; let the radius (r) of the circle be;

2πr = 60-y

$r = \frac{60-y}{2\pi }$

Area of the circle which is πr² can now be;

$A_C= \pi (\frac{60-y}{2\pi } )^2$

$=( \frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

Total Area (A);

A = $A_S+A_C$

= $\frac{y^2}{16} +(\frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

For the smallest possible area; $\frac{dA}{dy}=0$

∴ $\frac{2y}{16}+\frac{2(60-y)(-1)}{4\pi}=0$

If we divide through with (2) and each entity move to the opposite side; we have:

$\frac{y}{18}=\frac{(60-y)}{2\pi}$

By cross multiplying; we have:

2πy = 480 - 8y

collect like terms

(2π + 8) y = 480

which can be reduced to (π + 4)y = 240 by dividing through with 2

$y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$

∴ since $y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$ , we can determine for the length of the circle ;

60-y can now be;

= $60-\frac{240}{\pi+4}$

= $\frac{(\pi+4)*60-240}{\pi+40}$

= $\frac{60\pi+240-240}{\pi+4}$

= $(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+4})in$

also, the length of wire for the square (y) ; $y= (\frac{240}{\pi+4})in$

The smallest possible area (A) = $\frac{1}{16} (\frac{240}{\pi+4})^2+(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+y})^2(\frac{1}{4\pi})$

= 126.0223095 in²

≅ 126.02 in² ( to two decimal places)

Emma borrowed $300 to repair her car. the finance (interest) charge on the loan was $20, and the term on the loan was 14 days. w

Murrr4er [49]

Given:
loan amount = 300
finance charge = 20
term = 14 days.

To solve for APR.
<span>1. Divide the finance charge by the loan amount.
20/300 = 0.0667

2. Multiply the result by 365.
0.0667 x 365 = 24.35

3. Divide the result by the term of the loan.
24.35/14 = 1.74 (APR in decimal format)
<span>
4. Multiply the result by 100.
1.74 x 100 = 174% APR</span></span>

A group of 85 people were asked whether or not they prefer a bagel or a muffin for breakfast and whether or not they prefer milk

gladu [14]

Answer:

The answer(s) would be WY/WZ, or WYZ (If this is multiple choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasoning is that in the "IRL Equation" the polls showed that orange juice was prefered over milk, and didn't matter whether they wanted a bagel or muffin. All that matters in this equation is that it is one sided (For the 1st poll that is) and now you are able to narrow down the possibilities of the answer(s).
