Three lakes lost water during a drought. lake jensen lost one sixth of its water, lake parlow lost 26% of its water, and lake stockton lost thirty three two hundredths of its water. which lake lost the least amount of water?

Answers

Answer 1

If three lakes lost water during a drought, lake Jensen lost one-sixth of its water, lake Parlow lost 26% of its water, and lake Stockton lost thirty-three two-hundredths of its water, then the lake that lost the least amount of water is lake Stockton.

The lake that lost the least amount of water can be determined by converting the amounts lost by each of the lakes into percentage form.

As lake Jensen lost one-sixth of its water, it can be written in percentage form as,

Lake Jensen = 1/6 × 100 = 100/6 = 16.67 %

As given, Lake Parlow lost 26%

Lake Parlow = 26%

As Lake Stockton lost thirty-three two-hundredths, it can be written in percentage form as,

Lake Stockton = 33/200 × 100 = 0.165 ×  100 = 16.5 %

Thus, the least percentage of water lost is 16.5% by lake Stockton.

in a geometric series, the sum of the first three terms is 14.25 and the sum of the first four terms is 24.375. find the exact value of the first term and the common ratio. give your answer in the format ‘u1,r’, without spaces.

Answers

The first term of the Geometric Series = 3 and its common ratio = 3/2.

What is a geometric Series?

An unlimited number of terms with a fixed ratio between each term make up a geometric series.

For 'n' termed GP with a = first term and r = common ratio, [tex]S_{n}=\frac{a(r^{n}-1)}{r-1}[/tex]

Given:

Sum of first three terms of a G.P. = 14.25Sum of first four terms of the G.P. = 24.375

To find: First term of the GP and the common ratio.

Finding:

As, [tex]S_{n}=\frac{a(r^{n}-1)}{r-1}[/tex], for n =3,

[tex]S_{3}=\frac{a(r^{3}-1)}{r-1}=14.25[/tex] (eqn 1)

=> Similarly for n = 4,

[tex]S_{4}=\frac{a(r^{4}-1)}{r-1} = 24.375[/tex]

On dividing [tex]S_3 by S_4[/tex], we get:

[tex]\frac{14.25}{24.375}=\frac{r^{3}-1}{r^{4}-1}[/tex]

=> On solving the equations, we get:

[tex]14.25r^{4}-24.375r^{3}+10.125=0[/tex]

r = 3/2 (on factorizing the equation)

Now, substituting this in eqn 1

=> [tex]14.25=\frac{a((\frac{3}{2})^{2}-1)}{\frac{3}{2}-1}[/tex]

=> a = 3 on further solving the equation for a.

Hence, the first term of the Geometric Series = 3 and its common ratio = 3/2.

We are required to find the roots of the equation by completing the square method.

Equation is basically the relationship between two or more variables that are expressed in equal to form. It may be linear equation, quadratic equation,cubic equation and many more depending on the power of the variables that are present in the equation.

The equation is  [tex]x^{2}[/tex]-3x-3=0.

Area is 40 m2

Answers

Answer: w can be 1,2,4,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recap the formula of Area:
Area = width x length = w x l
Area = 40 = w x l

The definition of a whole number: is a number without fractions; an integer such as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,...

Let's start with 0. 0 times anything is equal to 0, so we cannot make 40 out of zero. Cross this out.

Next, let's try with 1:

a. 1x40 = 40


Then, applying the same concept to the rest we have these multiplications:

b. 2x20 = 40

c. 4x10 = 40

d. 5x8 = 40

e. 8x5 = 40

f. 10x4 = 40

g. 20x2 = 40

h. 40x1 = 40

Let's recap the formula of Perimeter:

P = 2 x (w + l)

So, we have the calculated perimeters (according to the above finding):
a. P= 2x(1+40)=82

b. P= 2x(2+20)=44

c. P= 2x(4+10)=28

d. P= 2x(5+8)=26

The below answers do not fit the [width < length]

e. P= 2x(8+5)=26 [not an answer]

f. P= 2x(10+4)=28 [not an answer]

g. P= 2x(20+2)=44 [not an answer]

what is the perimeter of a polygon that has the coordinates of (-3,2) (2,2) (2,-4) (-1,-4) (-1,-2) (-3,-2) (-3,2)

Answers

The perimeter of a polygon is 24 units.

In this question, we have been given the coordinates of a polygon.

we need to find the perimeter of a polygon.

Let A= (-3,2), B = (2,2), C = (2,-4), D = (-1,-4), E = (-1,-2), F = (-3,-2)

First we find the length of each side of a polygon.

|AB| = √5² + 0²

|AB| = 5

|BC| = √0² + (-6)²

|BC| = 6

|CD| = √(-3)²+0²

|CD| = 3

|DE| = √0²+2²

|DE| =  2

|EF| = √(-2)²+0²

|EF| = 2

|FA| = √0²+4²

|FA| = 4

The perimeter of a polygon would be,

P = AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FA

P = 5 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 4

P = 24 units

Therefore, the perimeter of a polygon is 24 units.

Ari has a total of 22 coins consisting of pennies and nickels. The total value of the coins is $0.54 Which equation can be used to find the number of pennies Ari has?

Answers

n = the number of nickels
p = the number of pennies

Total number of coins she has = 22.

n + p = 22

First equation

Each penny is one cent and a nickel is worth 5 cents

And the total is $0.54

Second equation. 0.05n + 0.01p = 0.54

n + p = 22
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.54

Multiply the top equation by -0.05 which gives us

-0.05n - 0.05p = -1.1
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.54

The n terms cancel out which leaves the p value

-0.04p = -0.56

Divide by the -0.04p and you get p=14


Substitute the value of p back into the top equation.

Which is n + 14 = 22

Subtract 14 and you get n = 8

Ari has 8 nickels and 14 pennies

Answers

Answer:

listen there is a lack of information the information you give isn't enough

The correct answer is Team B won by 1.1 points.

To determine which team won the competition, we need to calculate the final scores for both Team A and Team B based on the given weights for each category and the points they received in each category.

For Team A:

- Time to complete (75% of 15 points) = 0.75 * 15 = 11.25 points

- Design (15% of 9 points) = 0.15 * 9 = 1.35 points

- Total cost (10% of 14 points) = 0.10 * 14 = 1.4 points

Total score for Team A = 11.25 + 1.35 + 1.4 = 14 points

For Team B:

- Time to complete (75% of 17 points) = 0.75 * 17 = 12.75 points

- Design (15% of 7 points) = 0.15 * 7 = 1.05 points

- Total cost (10% of 13 points) = 0.10 * 13 = 1.3 points

Total score for Team B = 12.75 + 1.05 + 1.3 = 15.1 points

Now, we compare the total scores of both teams. Team A has a total score of 14 points, while Team B has a total score of 15.1 points. Therefore, Team B won by 1.1 points.

A quadratic equation has highest degree of two and it has 2 roots.

According to the given question Miriam reduced a square photo by cutting 3 inches away from the length and the width so it will fit in her photo album.

Assuming sides of the square to be x inches.

∴ From the given data

( x - 3 )( x - 3 ) = 64         ( area of a square is product any two sides )

x² - 6x + 9 = 64

x² - 6x - 55 = 0

x² - 11x + 5x - 55 = 0

x( x - 11 ) + 5( x-11 ) = 0

(x - 11 )( x + 5) = 0

∴ x = 11 or x = -5.                  ( length of something can not be negative )

So, the original length of the sides of the square is 11 inches.

Original area is

What is the simple interest paid if $900 principal 6% interest rate for 2 year

Answers

Simple Interest is the method of finding the interest amount for a particular principal amount of money at a particular rate of interest.

The simple interest for $900 at an interest rate of 6% is $108.

What is simple interest?

Simple Interest is the method of finding the interest amount for a particular principal amount of money at a particular rate of interest.

We have,

Principal = $900

Rate of interest = 6%

Time = 2 years.

Remember that time should always be in years.

The formula for simple interest is given by:

SI = PRT / 100

Where,

P = principal

R = rate of interest

T = Number of years

So,

SI = 900 x 6 x 2 / 100

SI = $108

Thus the simple interest for $900 at an interest rate of 6% is $108.

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.

Answers

The equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form is y = -x - 8.

How to find the equation of the line?

It is assumed that a line in the graph will pass through some points on the x and y-axes.

We must determine the line's fully simplified intercept.

we know the standard form of a line that is

y = mx + b

here, m is a slope and b is the constant

On the graph, there are the y-intercept (0,-8) and the x-intercept (-8,0).

The slope of the line passing through these points is:

[tex]slope = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \\ [/tex]

[tex]slope = \frac{ 8 - 0}{ 0 - 8} [/tex]

slope = 8/(-8)

slope = -1

then find the value of b

if x = 0 y = -8 then

y = mx +b

-8 = -1(0) + b

-8 = b

the value of b is -8

After inserting the values for m and c, the line's equation will be.

y = - x - 8

Hence y = -x - 8 is the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.
