Oliver interviewed 30% of the 9th grade class and 70% of the 10th grade class at his school. Jenny interviewed 75% of the 9th grade class and 25% of the 10th grade class at the same school. Oliver interviewed a total of 176 students and Jenny interviewed 140 students.
How many more 10th graders than 9th graders were interviewed?
A
36

B
80

C
120

D
200

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A . 36

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a total of 176 interviewed by Oliver and a total of 140 interviewed by Jenny. To find how many more 10th graders than 9th graders were interviewed, subtract the totals given

176 - 140 = 36

This is how we came to the answer:

We are given 70% of the 10th-grade and 30% of the 9th-grade with a total of 176 for Oliver.

While we're given 75% of the 9th-grade class and 25% of the 10th-grade with a total of 140 interviewed by Jenny

Oliver's Interviewees

10-graders

Firstly, let's find what the number of 9th-graders was interviewed by Oliver; find the percentage of the 9th-graders by the total;

70% of 176 =

[tex]\frac{70}{100} * \frac{176}{1}[/tex]

Cross multiply

123.2 were 10-graders interviewed by Oliver

9th-graders

Now, to find the number of 9th-graders was interviewed by Oliver; find the percentage of the 9th-graders by the total;

30% of 176 =

[tex]\frac{30}{100} * \frac{176}{1}[/tex]

Cross multiply

52.8 were 9th-graders interviewed by Oliver

Jenny's Interviewees

9th-graders

Firstly, let's find what the number of 9th-graders was interviewed by Jenney; find the percentage of the 9th-graders by the total;

75% of 140 =

[tex]\frac{75}{100} * \frac{140}{1}[/tex]

Cross multiply

105 students were 9th-graders interviewed by Jenney.

10th-graders

Now, to find the number of 10th-graders was interviewed by Jenney; find the percentage of the 10th-graders by the total;

25% of 140 =

[tex]\frac{25}{100} * \frac{140}{1}[/tex]

Cross multiply

35 students were 10th-graders interviewed by Jenney.

Total calculation

Use the results and sum them up by 9th-grade plus 9th-grade and 10th-grade plus 10-grade. Then subtract the amount gotten from 9th-grade away from the amount gotten from 10th-grade;

Oliver's 9th-grade = 52.8

Jenny's 9th-grade = 105

105 + 52.8 = 157.8

Oliver's 10th-grade = 123.2

Jenny's 10th-grade = 35

123.2 + 35 = 158.2

Total calculation: 158. 2 - 157.8 = 0.4

Therefore, there are 36 more 10th than 9th.

Extra Info:

Oliver's Interviewees Percentage

Since we are given 30% of the 9th-grade class and 70% of the 10th-grade class, first, let's add the percentages. To do so, set it up as a fraction;

30% = [tex]\frac{30}{100}[/tex] while, 70% = [tex]\frac{70}{100}[/tex]

Now solve it;

[tex]\frac{30}{100} + \frac{70}{100}[/tex]

Simplify; cancel bottom zero's;

[tex]\frac{30}{1} + \frac{70}{1}[/tex]

Add the remaining numerators;

30 + 70 = 100

Which is 100%

Jenny's Interviewees Percentage

Since we're given 75% of the 9th-grade class and 25% of the 10th-grade, it will end up the same answer. I'll show you how; first, let's add the percentages. To do so, set it up as a fraction;

25% = [tex]\frac{25}{100}[/tex] and, 75% = [tex]\frac{75}{100}[/tex]

Now solve it;

[tex]\frac{25}{100} + \frac{75}{100}[/tex]

Simplify; cancel bottom zero's

[tex]\frac{25}{1} + \frac{75}{1}[/tex]

Add the remaining numerators;

25 + 75 = 100

Meaning 100%

Using a graphical method, solve the simultaneous equations x+y =4 and y=2x+1

Answers

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

x+y = 4 ... 1

y = 2x+1 ....2

Substitute equation 2 into 1

x + (2x+1) = 4

3x + 1 = 4

3x = 4-1

x = 3/3

x = 1

Since y = 2x + 1

y = 2(1) + 1

y = 3

Hence the solution to the equation is (1,3). This means that the coordinate point on the graph where both lines intersect will be at (1, 3)

I would like an explanation how to do it too, IF you dont mind.

Answers

Answer:

Phoebe has £180, Andy has £60, and Polly has £30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, to start of let's establish some variables! We'll give Phoebe the variable "p", Andy the variable "a", and Polly the variable "o". By giving each person a variable we can create an equation and solve for it!

So, what do we know?

Well we know the following information...

p + a + o = 270

(Phoebe + Andy + Polly = £270)

p = 3a

(Phoebe = 3 times more than Andy)

a = 2o

(Andy = 2 times more than Polly)

To be able to solve this equation we have to solve for just one variable first.The only one we can use is "o" for Polly!

3(2o) + 2o + o = 270

6o + 2o + o = 270 (Distribute 3 to get like terms)

9o = 270 (Combine like terms [6+2+1])

o = 30 (Divide by 9 on both sides to get "o" by itself)

Now that we have how much Polly has, we have to solve for Andy and Phoebe. (To do this we will input our value, 30, where our variable is "o")

Andy

a = 2(30) (Input term)

a = 60 (Multiply by 2 to get final answer)

(Since we now know what Andy has we can input 60 into our "a" variable to solve for Phoebe)

Phoebe

p = 3(60) (Input term)

p = 180 (Multiply by 3 to get final answer)

Now! Just to check we are going to input our variables into our original equation to be sure we have the right variables.

p + a + o = 270

180 + 60 + 30 = 270!!

Hope this Helps! :)

An eagle 311 feet in the air spots its prey on the ground. The angle of depression to its prey is 15°. What is the distance between the eagle and its prey? Round to the nearest foot.​

Answers

I think the answer is 1,161 feet

Sorry if that’s incorrect, but here’s the explanation in case you need it:

The tangent of a triangle is the opposite leg over the adjacent leg. 311 is the opposite leg, and X would be the adjacent leg. So 311 divided by x is equal to tan 15. If we rearrange this to be equal to X, X equals 311 divided by tan 15. Tan 15 is equal to 0.2679, so 311/0.2679 = 1,160.6. That amount rounds up to 1,161, giving you the answer of 1,161 feet.

The equation of proportion is y equals 2 over 9 x and , y = ( 2/9 )x

What is Proportion?

The proportion formula is used to depict if two ratios or fractions are equal. The proportion formula can be given as a: b::c : d = a/b = c/d where a and d are the extreme terms and b and c are the mean terms.

The proportional equation is given as y ∝ x

And , y = kx where k is the proportionality constant

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Given data ,

Let the proportion be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

where y varies directly with x, and y is 16 when x is 72

So , when x = 72 , y = 16

y = kx

16 = k ( 72 )

Divide by 72 on both sides , we get

k = 16 / 72

k = 2/9

Therefore , the value of A is y = ( 2/9 )x

Hence , the equation is y = ( 2/9 )x

Mrs. Thomas has two rolls of garden edging that are each 96 inches long.

She wants to make two new flower beds in her back yard. Each flower bed

will be bordered by one roll of the edging. One flower bed will be in the

shape of a quadrilateral. The other will be in the shape of a triangle.


Please answer all parts. I will give brainliest for correct answer!

Answers

Answer:

A) The total length of each edging in her scale drawing would be 19.2 centimeters.

B) Square or rectangle

C) angle  α= 53.13 degrees

angle β=  36.87 degrees

height=  32 inches

base= 24 inches

hypotenuse 40 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

If the roll edging is 96 inches long and the scale chosen is

5inches = 1 cm

96inches /5= 19.2cm

The total length of each edging in her scale drawing would be 19.2 centimeters.

Part B:

The quadrilaterals such rectangle square right  trapezoid have a pair of 90 degrees angles.

If we choose a square shape then all sides must be equal. And we have a length of 19.2 centimeters.

Dividing 19.2 by 4  gives 4.8 cm for each side.

Figure A  shows a square and has 4 sides equal and 4 right angles.

If we choose a rectangle shape then 2 sides must be equal. We have a length of 19.2 centimeters.

Suppose the length is 2 times more than the width

which will give the dimensions as

2*2 x+ 2x= 6x   ( length and width denoted by x)

Dividing 19.2 by 6  gives 3.2 cm for each width and  6.4 for the lengths.

Figure B shows a rectangle  and has 2 sides equal and 4 right angles.

It depends on which quadrilateral you wish to choose.

Part C:

Using Pythagorus theorem if the base and altitude are given then the hypotenuse can be found out using the following formula.

c²= a² +b²

c²= 6.4² +4.8²

c²= 40.96+23.04= 64

c= √64 = 8

The third side must be equal to 8 centimeters.

Using the formula

Cos α= base / hypotenuse

Cos α=4.8/8

α= Cos (inverse) 4.8/8

α= Cos (inverse) 0.6

α= 53.13 degrees

So angle α= 53.13 degrees

All the angles in the triangle must be 180 degrees.

α + β +  90°= 180°

And angle β= 180-90-53.13= 36.869= 36.87 degrees

The actual dimensions of this triangle are

height= a= 6.4* 5= 32 inches

base= b= 4.8*5= 24 inches

hypotenuse= 8*5= 40 inches.
