In a camp there were stored food of 48 soldiers for 7 weeks. If 8 nore soldiers join the camp lets find for how many weeks it will be sifficient with the same food?​

Answers

Answer 1

If there were enough food for 48 soldiers for 7 weeks, and 8 more soldiers join the camp, the same food will be sufficient for approximately 5.25 weeks.

To find out how long the same food will last for the increased number of soldiers, we can set up a proportion. The number of soldiers is directly proportional to the number of weeks the food will last.

Let's assume that x represents the number of weeks the food will last for the increased number of soldiers.

The proportion can be set up as:

48 soldiers / 7 weeks = (48 + 8) soldiers / x weeks

Cross-multiplying the proportion, we get:

48 * x = 55 * 7

Simplifying the equation, we have:

48x = 385

Dividing both sides of the equation by 48, we get:

x = 385 / 48 ≈ 8.02

Therefore, the same food will be sufficient for approximately 8.02 weeks. Since we cannot have a fraction of a week, we can round it to the nearest whole number. Thus, the food will be sufficient for approximately 8 weeks.

Answer: 60°

The reason for this is because the image shows that ALL the sides are EQUAL. Therefore, all the angles must be equal.
So, we know that a triangle equals a total of 180°. If we simply divide that total by 3 we get 60°.

Equilateral triangles are triangles whose all sides and angles are equal.

Since the above given triangle has 3 equal sides it is an equilateral triangle.

So, the three angles of this triangle can be 3x.

Which means :

[tex] =\tt 3x = 180[/tex]

[tex] =\tt x = \frac{180}{3} [/tex]

[tex]\hookrightarrow \tt \color{plum}x = 60°[/tex]

▪︎Therefore, x = 60°

Cement costs $76 per cubic yard. What is the cost of cement for a sidewalk that is 4 in. Thick, 3ft wide,and 40 ft. Long?

Answers

Answer:

112.46 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

1 inch = 0.0278 yds

1 feet = 0.333 yd

Thickness = 4 inches = (4 * 0.0278) = 0.1112 yds

Width = 3 feets = (3 * 0.333) = 0.999 yds

Length = 40 feets = (40 * 0.333) = 13.32 yds

Volume of sidewalk :

Thickness * Width * Length

0.1112 * 0.999 * 13.32 = 1.479702816 yd³

1 yd³ of cement = $76

Cost :

1.479702816 yd³ * $76

= 112.457414016

= 112.46 yd³

If x and y vary directly and x=25 when y=100 find x when y=24.
PLEASE HELP FASTTTTTTT

Answers

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x and y vary directly then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition x = 25 when y = 100 , then

100 = 25k ( divide both sides by 25 )

4 = k

y = 4x ← equation of variation

When y = 24 , then

24 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )

Louis wants to carpet the rectangular floor of his basement. The basement has an area of 1,176 square feet. The width of the basement is 2 3 its length. What is the length of Louis's basement?

Answers

Answer: 42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x

Therefore, width = 2/3x

Area = Length × Width

Therefore, x × 2/3x = 1176

2/3x² = 1176

Divide both side by 2/3

x² = 1176 ÷ 2/3

x² = 1176 × 3/2

x² = 1764

x = ✓1764

x = 42

The length is 42 feet
