Explain one thing you need to be careful with when writing a proportion.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

For this case, we have that by definition, the proportions can be expressed in different ways. Example, if we have a dog and three cats:

75%: It's percentage

0.75: In decimal (75% are cats)

\frac {3} {4}: In fraction. (There are \frac {3} {4} of cats)

3: 1: Using ":" to separate sample values. (For every three cats there is a dog)

Care should be taken with the proportions, always multiplying the numbers in the proportion by the same value.

Example:3: 1 = 3 * 2: 1 * 2 = 6: 2

Answer:

Care should be taken with the proportions, always multiplying the numbers in the proportion by the same value.

60 is 25% of what number

Answers

For these problems,  the this number is this percent of what number ones,  turn the percent into a decimal.
Do this by moving the decimal two places to the left.
0.25 is the decimal.
Now divide the whole number by the decimal.
60/0.25=240
60 is 25% of 240
Solutions 
To solve the problem we first have to turn the percent into a decimal. To convert to decimal divide the percent by 100. 

0.25 is the decimal.

Now divide the whole number by the decimal.

60÷ 0.25 = 240

60 is 25 percent of 240

An airline flies between 6 airports. How many different flight paths can it offer, if it lands three times and never stays in the same place twice?

Answers

Answer:

the airline can offer 20 different flight paths under the given conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the airline has 6 airports and the plane lands three times without staying in the same place twice, this is essentially a permutation problem. You want to find the number of ways to arrange 3 distinct airports out of 6.

This can be calculated using the formula for permutations of "n" items taken "r" at a time:

nPr = n! / (n - r)!

Where "n" is the total number of items (airports in this case) and "r" is the number of items to be arranged (3 landings in this case), and "!" denotes factorial.

So, in your case, the calculation would be:

6P3 = 6! / (6 - 3)!

= (6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / (3 * 2 * 1)

= 120 / 6

= 20

So, the airline can offer 20 different flight paths under the given conditions.

It had wondering for days...

Answers

We see that n is in the set of natural numbers (1,2,3,4,5,...), so of course m should be in the natural numbers. However, we see that 2n^2, when square rooted, is n√(2). With n in the natural numbers, the square root of m, or o, can never be a natural number but is always an irrational number. Therefore, this equation has no solutions.

A landscaper is designing a flower garden in the shape of a trapezoid. She wants the shorter base to be 3 yards greater than the height and the longer base to be 7 yards greater than the height. She wants the area to be 295 square yards. The situation is modeled by the equation h^2 + 5h = 295. Use the Quadratic Formula to find the height that will give the desired area. Round to the nearest hundredth of a yard. A: 17.36 yards
B: 600 yards
C: 14.86 yards
D: 29.71 yards

Answers

Answer:

The height is 14.86 yards ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The flower garden in the shape of a trapezoid

- The shorter base to be 3 yards greater than the height

- The longer base to be 7 yards greater than the height

- The area must be 295 square yards

- The situation is modeled by the equation h² + 5h = 295

- We want to find the height that will give the desired area by using

 the quadratic formula

- The quadratic formula is h=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^(2)-4ac}}{2a},

  where a is the coefficient of h² and b is the coefficient of h and c

  is the numerical term

- The equation of the area is h² + 5h = 295

∵ h² + 5h = 295

- Subtract 295 from both sides

∴ h² + 5h - 295 = 0

- Lets find the values of a , b and c from the equation

∵ a = 1 , b = 5 , c = -295

h=\frac{-5+-\sqrt{(5)^(2)-4(1)(-295)}}{2(1)}

h=(-5+-√(25+1180))/(2)

h=(-5+√(1205))/(2)=14.86

- OR

h=(-5-√(1205))/(2)=-19.86

- The dimensions of any figure must be positive value, then we will

  neglect the negative value of h

h = 14.86

* The height is 14.86 yards

Answer:

C: 14.86 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve a quadratic equation we need to make it equal to zero and then use the Quadratic Formula

x= \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^(2)-4ac}}{2a}​​ / \frac{-b - \sqrt{b^(2)-4ac}}{2a}​​

having

h^(2) +5h-295=0

we have

a=1

b=5

c=-295

​​the answers for the formula are

h=14.85 and h=-17.36

as we are looking for a distance we can only take the positive answer, then

h=14.85
