there are 25 animals in the field. Some are horses, some are ducks. There are 84 legs in all. How many of animal are in the field?

Answers

Answer:

Ducks = 8

Horses = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question;

Total number of animals = 25 Total number of legs = 84 legs

We are required to determine the number of ducks and horses;

We need to know that;

A duck has two legs while a horse has four legs;

Assuming there were x ducks and y horses

Then;

x + y = 25 ................................Eqn 1

And;

2x + 4y = 84 .............................Eqn 2

Solving the two equations simultaneously we can get the number of each animal.

x + y = 25

2x + 4y = 84

Multiplying the first equation by 2, we get

2x + 2y = 50

2x + 4y = 84

Subtracting the two equations;

2x + 2y = 50

2x + 4y = 84

........................................................

      - 2y = -34

          y = 17

Solving for x

x = 25 -17

    = 8

Therefore; there were 8 ducks and 17 horses in the field

A pitcher struck out 11 out of 40 batters. Write an equivalent decimal.

Answers

Answer:

0.275

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write 11 out of 40 batters as a decimal.

We can write 11 out of 40 as a fraction to get:

[tex] \frac{11}{40} [/tex]

Note that:

[tex] \frac{11}{40} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{11}{10} [/tex]

This implies that:

How do you find a volume of a sphere? Please explain. (Also if you can please someone answer the other questions I asked but it has not been answered.)

Thanks!

Answers

Answer:

  V = (4/3)πr³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula usually used to find the volume of a sphere is ...

  [tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

where r represents the radius of the sphere.

The actual math involved will depend on what information about the sphere you are given. If you are given the radius or diameter (twice the radius), then this formula will be directly useful.

To determine the volume of a sphere, use the formula V = ([tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex])πr³. Measure the radius, cube it, multiply by pi, and then multiply by 4/3.

To find the volume of a sphere, you use the formula:

V = ([tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex])πr³

Here, V stands for volume, r represents the radius of the sphere, and π (pi) is approximately 3.14159.

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Measure the radius r of the sphere.Cube the radius (multiply it by itself three times): r³.Multiply the cubed radius by π (pi).Multiply the result from step 3 by 4/3.

One side of a triangle is 2 times the second side. The third side is 5 feet longer than the second side. The perimeter of a triangle is 81 feet. Find the length of each side.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the side of the triangles are;

First side = 38 ft

Second side = 19 ft

Third side =24 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question we are going to take;

Second side is x ft

Since, the first side is 2 times the second side then;

First side of the triangle is 2x ft

Since the third side is 5 ft less than the second side, then;

The third side is (x+5) ft

But, the perimeter of the triangle is 81 ft

Perimeter of a triangle is given by the sum of sides;

Therefore;

x + 2x +(x +5) = 81 ft

4x + 5 = 81

4x = 76

    x = 19 ft

Therefore;

Second side = 19 ft

First side = 38 ft

Third side = 24 ft

The scale of a railroad train set is 3.5 mm to 1 foot if the link of the model car in this it is 150 mm what is the approximate length of an actual car

Answers

The actual length of car is 42.857 foot

Solution:

Given that,

The scale of a railroad train set is 3.5 mm to 1 foot

The link of the model car in this it is 150 mm

To find: Length of actual car

Let "x" be the length of actual acr

From given,

Scale is:

3.5 mm : 1 foot

Then, given that link of the model car in this it is 150 mm

Then we get,

3.5 mm : 1 foot

150 mm : x foot

This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

[tex]3.5 \times x = 1 \times 150\\\\x = \frac{150}{3.5}\\\\x = 42.857[/tex]

Thus the actual length of car is 42.857 foot

What are all of the Angle measures

Answers

Answer:Type of Angle Description

Acute Angle is less than 90°

Right Angle is 90° exactly

Obtuse Angle is greater than 90° but less than 180°

Straight Angle is 180° exactly

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

∠ABC = 62°, ∠DBE = 62°, ∠CBE = 118°, ∠ABD = 118°

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x

We can say that angle ABC and angle DBE are vertically opposite angles because there are only two intersecting lines. Vertically opposite angles are equal so we can form an equation:

4x + 2 = 5x - 13

5x - 4x = 2 + 13

x = 15

Angles ABC and DBE

Now we can substitute x into the equation and find out the value for angles ABC and DBE.

4(15) + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62°, just to make sure we need to substitute x into the other equation to see whether we get the same answer:

5(15) - 13 = 75 - 13 = 62°, now we can confirm that angles ABC and DBE are 62°.

Angles CBE and ABD

Now we can use the rule, angles on a straight line add up to 180°, to find the other two angles, because these two angles are vertically opposite, they are also equal to each other.

180 - 62 = 118°

Angles CBE and ABD are both 118°

30 kg into 5:3 ratio

Answers

Answer:

18.75 Kg : 11.25 Kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 3 = 8 parts

Divide 30 Kg by 8 to find the value of one part of the ratio

30 Kg ÷ 8 = 3.75 Kg ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

3. Bill's baseball bag weighs 4 pounds. If he takes out a pair of cleats
that weigh 6 ounces, how much will his bag weigh?

Answers

Answer:

58 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

16 x 4=64 - 6=58 ounces

Final answer:

After converting the weight of the cleats from ounces to pounds, the new weight of Bill's baseball bag is determined to be 3.625 pounds by subtracting 0.375 pounds (weight of the cleats in pounds) from the original 4 pounds.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is Mathematics, specifically dealing with unit conversion and simple subtraction of weights. To determine the new weight of Bill's baseball bag after removing the cleats that weigh 6 ounces, we need to first convert the ounces to pounds, since the weight of the bag is given in pounds.

There are 16 ounces in one pound. Therefore, 6 ounces is equivalent to 6 ounces \/ 16 ounces per pound = 0.375 pounds. Starting with the original weight of the bag which is 4 pounds, subtracting the weight of the cleats in pounds will give us the new weight of the bag.

4 pounds - 0.375 pounds = 3.625 pounds. This is the weight of Bill's baseball bag after the cleats are removed.

Which quadrilateral can be inscribed in a circle?
A) A
B) B
C) C
D) D

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is A

Therefore the quadrilateral in the option A can be inscribed in a circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Four Quadrilateral, A ,B ,C ,D in the figure below.

For a quadrilateral to be inscribed in a circle we required opposite angles must be supplementary, that is it should add up to 180°.

So from the four given quadrilateral we have only in quadrilateral A the opposite angles are supplementary.

Quadrilateral A :

Consider the quadrilateral PQRS where

∠SPQ = 91°

∠PQR = 101°

∠QRS = 89°

∠SPQ  and ∠QRS  are opposite angles and their sum is 180°

[tex]\angle SPQ+\angle QRS = 91+89 =180[/tex]

Others in option B, C , and D opposite angles are not supplementary hence cannot inscribe in a circle.

Therefore the quadrilateral in the option A can be inscribed in a circle.

Answer:

c Mark me as the brainiest

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral that can be inscribed in a circle has vertices that lie on a single circle. A distinguishing property of such quadrilaterals is that they have opposite angles adding up to 180°. Non-rectangular parallelograms cannot be inscribed in circles, because their opposite angles are equal rather than supplementary.
