Answers

Answer:

4) 97%

6) 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

4) We are given that 3% for 250 million are diesel.

100% - 3% = 97% NON DIESEL cars

97% of 250 million is 242.45 million.

______________________________

6) We know that 17% (buses) and 70% (cars) are part of that total.

We also know that the total needs to be 100%

So, we simply do this:

100 - (17+70) = 13 (%)

So, 13% of the survey participants had bikes

Volume of a Triangular Prism

V = 1/2BHL

Solving

V = 1/2 x 7 x 8 x 10V = 7 x 10 x 4V = 280 m³

Answer:

280

Step-by-step explanation:

So first lets establish the formula for a Triangular Prism :

1/2 * b * h * l

now lets use the mesurements given to substitute into the formula :

1/2 * 7 * 8 * 10

now lets solve it by first multiplying all the whole numbers together!

7 * 8 = 56

56 * 10 = 560

Finally lets multiply 560 by 1/2 or in other words, divide 560 by 2 :

560/2 = 280

What is the equation in standard
form of a circle with the
equation x^2+ y^2 + 14y – 1 = 0?

Answers

Answer:

(x-2)²+(y+7)² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The general standard form of an equation is written in expressed as shown;

(x-a)²+(y-b)² = r²

(a,b) is the centre of the circle and r is the radius

Given the equation of the circle x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 14y +28 =0, we need to find the centre of the circle and its radius.

comparing the equation given with x²+y²+2gx+2fy+c =0

(-g, -f) is the centre

radius = √g²+f²-c

On comparison,

2gx = - 4x

g = -4/2

g = -2

2fy =  14y

f = 14/2

f = 7

c = 28

r = √(-2)²+7²-28

r = √4+49-28

r = √25

r = 5

comparing centre (a,b) to (-g, -f)

a = -g = -(-2)

a = 2

b = -f = -7

b = -7

substituting the centre (a, b) and the radius r into the equation

(x-a)²+(y-b)² = r²

The required equation will be (x-2)²+(y+7)² = 5²

(x-2)²+(y+7)² = 25

Applying the cosine ratio of trigonometry, the exact value of cos(-60°) which equals cos (π/3) is: C. 1/2.

What is the Cosine Ratio?

In trigonometry, the vaue of the cosine ratio is the cosine of the reference angle which equals the ratio of the adjcent side over the hypotenuse.

To get the exact value of cos(-60°), convert 60 to radians.

π radian = 180

60° = (π/3) radians

Note: cos (-θ) = cos θ

Therefore, cos (-π/3) = cos (π/3)

cos (π/3) = 1/2

The exact value of cos(-60°) = 1/2 (option C).

Given two side lengths of a triangle (4cm and 17cm), find a range of possible lengths for the third side.

Answers

Check the picture below.

so notice the top part of the picture

if we move the "4" and "17" sides  close to each other, till one is on top of the other, the side in red, can never be less than 17 - 4, or 13, it cannot be 13 either, because then both lines will be on on top and we wouldn't have a triangle just a flat-line, so whatever the red line is, it must be more than 13.

notice the bottom part of the picture

if we separate the "4" and "17" sides, and lay them flat, the most the red side can be is 4 + 17 or 21, it can never be greater than 21, it can't be 21 either because if we lay "4" and "17" flat, we lose the triangle and all we'd have is a flat-line.  So whatever the red side is, must be less than 21.

Compute the value of the discriminant and give the number of real solutions of the quadratic equation. -9x to the second power-6x-1=0

Answers

Answer:
discriminant=0
Number of real solutions=1


Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:
-9x^2-6x-1=0
Let a: coefficient of x^2
Let b: coefficient of x
Let c: constant
a=-9
b=-6
c=-1
The formula of the discriminant is given by:
discriminant= b^2 - 4ac
discriminant= (-6)^2 - 4(-9)(-1)
= 36 - 36 = 0
We know that:
If discriminant<0 then the equation has no real root
If discriminant=0 the equation has one real root
If discriminant>0 the equation has 2 real roots

Here we got discriminant=0 so the quadratic equation has 1 real root.

°

Answers

Answer:

X=40°

Step-by-step explanation:

40+30=70

40+30=70

70+70=140

140+40=180

The angles will builder has to cut to make the window fit is 40°, 70° and 70°.

Given that, the measures of the three angles of a triangle are x°, (x+30)° and (x+30)°.

What is the angle sum property of a triangle?

The sum of all internal angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°. This is called the angle sum property of a triangle.

Now, x°+(x+30)°+(x+30)°= 180°

⇒3x+60°=180°

⇒3x=180°-60°

⇒3x=120°

⇒x=40°

So, x°=40°,  (x+30)°= 70°

Therefore, the angles will builder has to cut to make the window fit is 40°, 70° and 70°.
