Mr. Wells tells his class of 24 that when they completed the assignment, they may play online math games. At the end of class, 4

0% of the class is playing online math games. Approximately how many students still need to complete their assignmnet?

Hello there! Your answer is approximately 14 students.

To solve this question, you want to start by finding 40% of 24. To do this, convert 40% into a decimal (divide by 100) and multiply by 24.

24 x 0.40 = 9.6.

But - you can't have 9.6 of a student. So, we round up to 10.

Note that the question asks how many students <em>still need to complete</em> their assignment, meaning we are looking for the ones that haven't finished. We found the amount for students that <em>have</em> finished, so subtract that from the total to see approximately how many still have to finish.

24 - 10 = 14

So, this means approximately 14 students still need to complete their assignment.

I hope I could help you, have a great rest of your day! :D

Answer:

Each gallon of primer will cover a maximum of 200 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-axis of the graph is the area to paint in square feet. The y-axis of the graph is the number of gallons of primer needed.

We can see that 1 gallon of primer covers from 0 to 200 feet; 2 gallons of primer covers from 200 to 400 feet; etc.

This tells us that each gallon of primer covers a maximum of 200 square feet.

A conical pile of road salt has a diameter of 112 feet and a slant height of 65 feet. After a storm, the linear dimensions of th

QveST [7]

we know that

the volume of a cone is equal to

$V= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h$

in this problem

the radius is equal to

$r= \frac{112}{2}= 56ft$

1) <u>Find the height of the cone before the storm</u>

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem find the height

$h^{2} = l^{2}-r^{2}$

$l=65 ft$

$h^{2} = 65^{2}-56^{2}$

$h^{2} = 1,089$

$h=33 ft$

2) <u>Find the volume before the storm</u>

$V= \frac{1}{3}*\pi* 56^{2}*33$

$V=34,496\pi\ ft^{3}$

3) <u>Find the volume after the storm</u>

After a storm, the linear dimensions of the pile are 1/3 of the original dimensions

so

r=(56/3) ft

h=(33/3)=11 ft

$V= \frac{1}{3}*\pi* (56/3)^{2}*11$

$V= 1,277.63\pi\ ft^{3}$

<u>4) Find how this change affect the volume of the pile</u>

Divide the volume after the storm by the volume before the storm

$\frac{1,277.63 \pi }{34,496 \pi } = \frac{1}{27}$

therefore

<u>the answer part a) is</u>

The volume of the pile after the storm is $\frac{1}{27}$ times the original volume

<u>Part b)</u> Estimate the number of lane miles that were covered with salt

5) <u>Find the amount of salt that was used during the storm</u>

$=34,496 \pi - 1,277.63 \pi \\= 33.218.37 \pi \\= 104,358.59\ ft^{3}$

6) <u>Find the pounds of road salt used</u>

$104,358.59*80=8,348,687.2\ pounds$

7) <u>Find the number of lane miles that were covered with salt</u>

$8,348,687.2/350=23,853.39 \ lane\ miles$

therefore

<u>the answer part b) is</u>

the number of lane miles that were covered with salt is $23,853.39 \ lane\ miles$

<u>Part c) </u>How many lane miles can be covered with the remaining salt? Round your answer to the nearest lane mile

the remaining salt is equal to $1,277.63\pi\ ft^{3}$

$1,277.63\pi\ ft^{3}=4,013.79\ ft^{3}$

8) <u>Find the pounds of road salt </u>

$4,013.79*80=321,103.20\ pounds$

9) <u>Find the number of lane miles </u>

$321,103.20/350=917.44 \ lane\ miles$

therefore

<u>the answer part c) is</u>

the number of lane miles is $917 \ lane\ miles$

The total area of the polygon is 176 square feet. Find the value of x.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

x = 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Total area of the given polygon = Area of triangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2 + Area of triangle 3

Area of triangle 1 = Area of triangle 3 = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})$

= $\frac{1}{2}(x)(8)$

= 4x square feet

Area of rectangle 2 = Length × Width

= 16 × 8

= 128 square feet

Total area of the given polygon = 4x + 128 + 4x

176 = 8x + 128

8x = 176 - 128

x = $\frac{48}{8}$

x = 6 ft
