Answer:

15 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much the passenger car holds, we need to first find what 50% of the trucks gas tank holds.

Truck Gas Tank = 30 gallons

Now we find how much 50% of 30 is:

50% = 0.50

Total = 30 x 0.50

Total = 15 Gallons

So the passenger car holds 15 gallons of gas.

A bag contains 100 marbles which are red, green, and blue. Suppose a student randomly selects a marble without looking, records

ra1l [238]

Answer:

35 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can put the different color marbles in a ratio. So 7:2:11. If we add all of those up we get 20. We do 100/20 to get 5. Each number in the ratio is equivalent to 5 marbles. Then we do 7*5 to get 35. We can check our work by doing, (7*5) + (2*5) + (11*5) = 100. And it does equal 100 so the answer is correct.

A city distributes vehicle identification stickers using a combination of letters followed by a combination of digits, each of

gayaneshka [121]

A) 672750
B) 68250
C) 2960100

Explanation
A) We have 26 letters from which to choose 4, and 10 digits from which to choose 2:
$_{26}C_4\times_{10}C_2=\frac{26!}{4!22!}\times\frac{10!}{2!8!}=14950\times45=672750$

B) We have 26 letters from which to choose 2, and 10 digits from which to choose 4:
$_{26}C_2\times_{10}C_4=\frac{26!}{2!24!}\times\frac{10!}{4!6!}=325\times210=68250$

C) We have 26 letters from which to choose 5, and 10 digits from which to choose 2:
$_{26}C_5\times_{10}C_2=\frac{26!}{5!21!}\times\frac{10!}{2!8!}=65780\times45=2960100$

A scale model of a merry-go-round and the actual merry-go-round are similar. a. How many times greater is the base area of the a

Kipish [7]

The area ratio is the square of the linear dimension ratio. So if the merry-go-round base is circular, the area contains the square of the radius. If a polygon, the base can be divided into triangles. The area of each triangle involves the product of the base length and the height, so since both have the same change of length, the product will square the scaling ratio.
Let’s say the ratio of corresponding lengths is x:1 then the ratio of the base areas is x²:1.
The question doesn’t provide any figures.
Let’s put some in as an example. Let the actual merry-go-round be circular with a diameter of 20 feet, while the model is one foot in diameter. So the ratio of the actual ride and it’s model is 20:1. The area of the base of the actual ride is 100π sq ft. The area of the base of the model is π/4 sq ft. We expect the ratio of these areas to be 20²=400. 100π/(π/4)=400.
