In January the students in a class red 72 books in February they read 56 books what is the approximate percentage decrease in the number of books read from January to February

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: -12.5%

72 + 56 = 128

72 x / 128 x 100 = 56.25

56 / 128 x 100 = 43.75

43.75 - 56.25 = - 12.5

In Triangle JKL, K is 3 times the measure of J, and L is 8 times the measure of J. Find the measure of each angle in Triangle JKL.

Answers

Answer: The measure of angle J = 15°, measure of angle K  =45° and the measure of angle J = 120°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the measure of angle J be x.

Then, the measure of angle K will be 3x

and the measure of angle L = 8x

Since the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

Then,

angle J + angle K + angle L = 180 degrees

⇒ x+3x+8x =180

⇒ 12x = 180  

⇒x = 15  [divide both sides by 12]

Hence, the measure of angle J = 15°, measure of angle K = 3(15) =45° and the measure of angle J = 8 (15) = 120°.

i.e. the measure of angle J = 15°, measure of angle K  =45° and the measure of angle J = 120°.

The daily advertising revenue (in dollars) for a local newspaper is given by the function R(t) = -18t2 + 720t – 103, where t is number of years that the paper has been in production. What is the daily advertising revenue after the paper has been in business for 15 years?

Answers

Answer:

6647

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the advertising revenue for 15 years is shown below:

Given that

r(t) = -18t^2 + 720t - 103

where

t = number of years = 15

now put the value of t in the above equation

= -18(15)^2 + 720(15) - 103

= -4050 + 10,800 - 103

= 6647

Answers

Answer:

$20070

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Time= 5 years

Principal= $15,000

Rate= 6%

Total amount=  P (1 + i)^t

substitute

Total amount=  15000(1 + 0.06)^5

Total amount=  15000 (1.06)^5

Total amount=  15000*1.338

Total amount=  $20070

Hence the total amount will be $20070

Two
angles, ZJ and ZK are supplementary. The measure of ZJ is (2x+5)°. The
measure of ZK is (3x-10)°. What is the measure of ZK?

Answers

Answer:

ZK = 95 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles are when the sum of 2 angles equals 180 degrees. Since ZJ and ZK are supplementary, we can add both of them to equal 180 degrees.

ZJ + ZK = 180

Our first objective: find the value of x

(2x + 5) + (3x - 10) = 180

2x + 5 + 3x - 10 = 180

Combine like terms

5x - 5 = 180

Add 5 to both sides to isolate variable x

5x = 175

Divide both sides by 5 to isolate variable x

x = 35

Plug in x value for ZK expression

There is a 0.9987 probability that a randomly selected 31​-year-old male lives through the year. A life insurance company charges ​$186 for insuring that the male will live through the year. If the male does not survive the​ year, the policy pays out ​$100,000 as a death benefit. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below.

Answers

Parts a through c is missing and it is;

a) From the perspective of the 33-year-old male, what are the monetary values corresponding to the two events of surving the year and not surviving?

The value corresponding to surviving the year is $_____.

The value corresponding to not surviving the year is $_____.

b) If the 33-year-old male purchases the policy, what is his expected value?

The expected value is $_____.

c) Can the insurance company expect to make a profit from many such policies? Why?

_____ because the insurance company expects to make an average profit of $_____ on every 33-year-old male it insures for 1 year.

Answer:

A) the value that corresponds to surviving the year = - $186

The value corresponding to not surviving the year = $99814

B) μ = -$56

C) Yes, the company can make a profit from many such policies because it makes an average profit of $56 on every 31 year old male it insures for 1 year.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The company charges $186 for insuring. Thus;

Amount paid out = - $186

Therefore, the value that corresponds to surviving the year = - $186

Therefore, the value corresponding to not surviving the year = $100000 - $186

The value corresponding to not surviving the year = $99814

B) since probability that a 31 year old male survives is 0.9987, then;

Probability that a male doesn't survive is;

P(doesn't survive) = 1 - 0.9987

P(doesn't survive) = 0.0013

The expected value is calculated from;

μ = Σx•P(x) = (0.0013 × 99814) + (-186 × 0.9987)

μ = -$56

C) Yes, the company can make a profit from many such policies because it makes an average profit of $56 on every 31 year old male it insures for 1 year.

Answers

Answer:

1) 189.25 square inches

2) 21 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In order to find the area of a semicircle, you use  (πr^2)/2. When you plug in 3.14 as pi and 5 as your radius, you'll get 39.25. The area of the rectangle is base x height which is 10 x 15/150. 150 + 39.25 = 189.25

2) If you draw a vertical line that is parallel to the 2 feet measure, you'll have two rectangles with areas (5x3) and (3x2). 15 + 6 = 21

Understanding place values:

The first 0 before the decimal point in 0.016 represents ones, the 0 after the decimal point represents tenths, the 1 represents hundredths and the 6 represents thousandths. We use 1,000 in our fraction because of the place value.

Step-by-step explanation:

   0.016 = 16/1,000

2. Simpilfy the fraction 16/1,000:
