Answer 2

There were 42 people who are fishing if the ratio of people watching whales to people fishing was five to seven.

What is a numerical expression?

A numerical expression is algebraic information stated in the form of numbers and variables that are unknown. Information can is used to generate numerical expressions.

We have been given that the ratio of people watching whales to people fishing was five to seven if there were 72 people.

Let the number of people who watch whales would be 5x

And the number of people who are fishing would be 7x

According to the given condition, the required solution would be as:

⇒ 5x + 7x = 72

⇒ 12x = 72

⇒ x = 6

So the number of people who are fishing = 7 × 6 = 42

Therefore, there were 42 people who are fishing.

percent

O A. 11.72%

B. 12.12%

C. 9.9%

O D. 8.6%

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of black pens  =     3/14

Probability of white paper clips = 16/40

to find the probability of black pen and white paper clip we have to multiply these two probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing these ordered pairs, we will get

4^(1/x)=1/2 and 9^(1/y)=1/3

x=-2 and y=-2

Answer:

x = y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of radicals/ exponents

[tex]a^{\frac{m}{n} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt[n]{a^{m} }[/tex] , [tex]a^{-m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{a^{m} }[/tex] , [tex](a^m)^{n}[/tex] = [tex]a^{mn}[/tex]

Given

[tex]\sqrt[x]{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , then

[tex]\sqrt[x]{2^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2^{\frac{2}{x} }[/tex] = [tex]2^{-1}[/tex]

Since the bases on both sides are equal, both 2 , then equate exponents

[tex]\frac{2}{x}[/tex] = - 1 ( multiply both sides by x )

2 = - x , that is

x = - 2

Similarly

[tex]\sqrt[y]{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] , then

[tex]\sqrt[y]{3^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]3^{\frac{2}{y} }[/tex] = [tex]3^{-1}[/tex]

Equating the exponents gives

[tex]\frac{2}{y}[/tex] = - 1 ⇒ - y = 2 ⇒ y = - 2

help meh please I'm bad at math​

Answers

Answer:

4050 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We would break this figure down into the square pyramid on the top and the cube on the bottom.

Volume of the cube:

l*w*h

= 15*15*15

= 3375.

Volume of the square pyramid:

a^2*(h/3)

= 15^2*(9/3)

= 225*3

= 675

Now we add the two to get the final answer:

3375+675=4050

The figure is 4050 cubic feet.

I hope this helped! :D

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cube:

Volume = length x width x height

V = 15 * 15 * 15

(Simplified version): 15³

V = 3,375ft³

Triangle:

Volume = 1/2 * base * height * length

V = 1/2 * 15 * 9 * 15

V = 1,012ft³

Add them both up to get our answer

3,375ft³ + 1,102ft³

4,477ft³

Therefore the volume of the figure is 4,477ft³
