In a recent survey of 974 voters, 724 indicated that they were in favor of a new city park, while the other 250 voters said that they were opposed. Using this survey as a basis, if 40,000 citizens vote next week, how many are likely to be opposed to the new park? Round to the nearest whole number.
A) 11.345
B) 9,457
C) 9,927
D) 10,267

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 250/974 = x/40,000...250 opposed to 974 total = x opposed to 40,000 total
cross multiply because this is a proportion
974x = 10,000,000
x = 10,000,000/974
x = 10266.94 rounds to 10,267 <==

The graph shows the cost of one pound of apples at the grocery store. find the slope of the line.

Answers

Put the graph in and I will solve this question. it is unsolvable without the graph.

Final answer:

The slope of the line represents the rate of change in cost for one pound of apples at the grocery store.

Explanation:

The slope of a line on a graph represents the rate of change. In this case, the slope represents the change in cost for one pound of apples at the grocery store. To find the slope, you can choose two points on the line and calculate the difference in cost divided by the difference in quantity of apples. The slope is the same regardless of the points you choose, and it is equal to the difference in cost divided by the difference in quantity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Un jardín rectangular de 50 m de largo por 34 m de ancho está rodeado por un camino de arena uniforme.Halla la anchura de dicho camino si se sabe que su área es 540 metros

Answers

Answer:

$h = 3.214\,m$

Step-by-step explanation:

El área total del camino es el producto del perímetro del jardín y el ancho del camino:

$A = 2\cdot (w + l) \cdot h$

Donde:

$w$ - El ancho del jardín, en metros.

$l$ - El largo del jardín, en metros.

$h$ - El ancho del camino, en metros.

El ancho del camino es:

$h = (A)/(2\cdot (w+l))$

$h = (540\,m^(2))/(2\cdot (50\,m + 34\,m))$

$h = 3.214\,m$

Find the surface area of a bar of soap if the diameter is 5 cm and the height is 2cm .

Answers

Please see the pic, I'd solved in it.

Given that:
Diameter = 5 cm
which means,
Radius= $(diameter)/(2)$ = $(5)/(2)$ = 2.5 cm (radius is half the diameter)
and Height = 2 cm
We can assume that the shape is cylindrical

Formula of the Surface Area of a Cylinder
=2 $\pi$ r² + 2 $\pi$ rh
=2 $\pi$ (2.5)² + 2 $\pi$ (2.5)(2)
=12.5 $\pi$ + 10 $\pi$
=22.5 $\pi$ cm² (in terms of $\pi$ )
=70.69 cm² ≈ 70.7 cm²
