QS=

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf QS = 98}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

QP = PS   [Diagonals are bisected(Divided into two equal parts) by the other diagonal of parallelogram]

So,

3x - 11 = 2x + 9

3x - 2x = 9 + 11

x = 20

Now,

QS = QP + PS

QS = 3x-11+2x+9

QS = 3(20)-11+2(20)+9

QS = 60 - 11 + 40 + 9

QS = 49 + 49

QS = 98

Answer:  QS=98

Carl and Nicole are raising money to purchase basketballs for their school's team. The more money they raise, the more basketballs they will be able to purchase for the school. What is the independent variable?
A. the number of students on the team
B. the number of students in the school
C. the amount of money that is raised
D. the number of basketballs

Answers

Answer:

C. The amount of money that is raised

Step-by-step explanation:

in the equation, it is the amount of money that is raised because how much money is raised affects the amount of basketballs purchased.

In other words, if the amount of money is less, then there will be less basketballs purchased as a result. If the amount of money is more, then there will be more basketballs purchased as a result.

Answer:

C. the amount of money that is raised

Step-by-step explanation:

I always think of it like this:

independent: money they are raising

dependent: the amount of a certain item the money is being used on

WikiTongues has
videos of 500 different
languages from around the
world. What percent of the
7,111 total languages
spoken globally
is represented on
WikiTongues?

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that 500 languages is a certain percent of the 7,111 total languages. When working with percent equations, the word "is" means "equals", and "of" usually means "multiplied by" This means that 500 is equal to a certain percent multiplied by 7,111. We can use p to represent this certain percent and create an equation below.

500=7,111p

Let's flip the equation around so the p is on the left side. Variables are usually supposed to be on the left.

7,111p=500

We divide both sides by 7,111.

p=0.0703

As a percent, this is about 7.03%. Therefore, about 7.03% of the total languages spoken globally are represented on WikiTongues.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer:

7.03 %

Step-by-step explanation:

500 / 7,111 = 0.07031359865

0.07031359865  x 100 = 7.03 %

A sum of $46875 was lent out at simple interest and at the end of 1 yr 8 month, the total amount was $50000. Find the rate interest per year.​

Answers

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

As indicated in the question, this is a simple interest question.

The formula for Simple Interest =

I = Principal × Rate × Time

In the above question, we were given the following values.

A = Total value / amount of money = $50000

Principal = $46875

Rate = ??

Time = 1 yr and 8 months

= 1 year +(8/12)

Time = 1.6666666667 years

We are asked to solve for the rate interest per year. Hence, the formula to use to solve this question is given as:

r = (1/t)(A/P - 1)

r = (1/1.6666666667)(50000/46875 - 1)

r = 0.04

Converting to percentage, rate = 0.04 × 100 = 4%

Therefore, the rate interest per year is 4%

Amy, a nature photographer, randomly sampled photographs she took within the last year. She wanted to find out how many of her photographs contained flowers. The proportion of photographs that had flowers was 0.61, with a margin of error of 0.04. Construct a confidence interval for the proportion of her photographs taken within the last year contained flowers.

Answers

The Constructed  confidence interval for the proportion of her photographs taken within the last year contained flowers is

[tex]CI\ E(0.57,0.65)[/tex]

From the question we are told that:

The proportion of photographs that had flowers P= 0.61

Margin of error of M.E= 0.04

Generally, the equation for Confidence interval for proportion is mathematically given by

[tex]CI=0.61 \pm 0.04[/tex]P \pm M.E

Therefore Confidence interval is

[tex]CI=0.61 \pm 0.04[/tex]

And can also be written as

[tex]CI\ E((0.61+0.04),0.61-0.04))[/tex]

[tex]CI\ E(0.57,0.65)[/tex]

In conclusion the Confidence interval is

[tex]CI\ E(0.57,0.65)[/tex]

Answers

otal perimeter = 76cm = AB + BC + CD + AD

AD & BC = 13cm

AB = 1.5*(CD)

Solution:

Since we know AD & BC are both 13cm long, plug those numbers into the perimeter equation

76cm+=+AB+%2B+BC+%2B+CD+%2B+AD Place 13cm in for AD & BC

 

76cm+=+AB+%2B+13cm+%2B+CD+%2B+13cm Combine like terms

76cm+=+AB+%2B+CD+%2B+26cmSubtract 26cm from both sides

50cm+=+AB+%2B+CD Now it is time to substitute the 1.5*(CD) for AB

50cm+=+1.5%2A%28CD%29+%2B+CD rewrite the equation

50cm+=+2.5%2A%28CD%29 Divide both sides by 2.5
