Michelle collects US, Canadian and Mexican stamps. In her collection 80% of the stamps are U.S. and Mexican stamps. there are 3 times as many U.S. stamps as Mexican stamps. WHat percent of Michelle's collections is made up of U.S. stamps?
Final answer:
Michelle's stamp collection consists of 60% U.S. stamps, determined by solving equations based on the given information that U.S. and Mexican stamps make up 80% of her collection and there are three times as many U.S. stamps as Mexican stamps.
Explanation:
The student asked what percent of Michelle's stamp collection is made up of U.S. stamps if 80% are U.S. and Mexican stamps and there are 3 times as many U.S. stamps as Mexican stamps. To solve this, let's call the percentage of U.S. stamps 'U' and the percentage of Mexican stamps 'M'. According to the given information, U + M = 80%, and U = 3M.
We substitute the second expression into the first to get 3M + M = 80%, which simplifies to 4M = 80%. Dividing both sides by 4 gives M = 20%. As the number of U.S. stamps is three times the number of Mexican stamps, we calculate U as 3 × 20% = 60%. So, the percentage of U.S. stamps in Michelle's collection is 60%.

The correct answer for this completion exercise shown above is the second option (Option B), which is: B. Parent
Therefore, you have:"In each family of function, the parent function is the most basic function in the family"
By definition, the most basic fucntion in each family of functions is called “parent fucntion”. A family of function is a set of function that when you graph them, you can notice that they have common charateristics.

Joel is mailing a large envelope to his cousin. The envelope has pictures inside, so he doesn't want to bend it.
The mail slot has the dimensions shown. The dotted line shows the widest part of the slot.
Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean theorem
c=√a²±b²
So it was 7=A
And it was 24=b
solving that it gives us 25
This isn’t that much of help sorry but this is the basic info on how to solve it you can learn more by searching videos about the Pythagorean thermom.
Hope this helps-A
The maximum width of the slot is 25cm (Option A).
To find the maximum width of the mail slot, we need to calculate the length of the diagonal (the dotted line) in the rectangle. The diagonal of a rectangle can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.
Given:
- The length of the rectangle (one side) = 24 cm
- The height of the rectangle (other side) = 7 cm
The formula for the diagonal [tex]\( d \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[ d = \sqrt{(length)^2 + (height)^2} \][/tex]
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\[ d = \sqrt{24^2 + 7^2} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ d = \sqrt{576 + 49} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ d = \sqrt{625} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ d = 25 \, \text{cm} \][/tex]
So, the maximum width of the mail slot is 25cm.

Rex painting the garage in the shed he uses 3 gallons of paint on the garage he uses 3/4 of that amount on the shed enter the amount of paint in gallons Rex uses on the shed
Rex uses 2.25 gallons of paint on the shed, which is [tex]\( \frac{3}{4} \)[/tex] of the 3 gallons of paint he uses on the garage.
To find out how much paint Rex uses on the shed, we need to calculate [tex]\( \frac{3}{4} \)[/tex] of the amount of paint he uses on the garage.
Rex uses 3 gallons of paint on the garage.
Therefore, the amount of paint he uses on the shed is:
Paint used on the shed = [tex]\frac{3}{4} \times 3[/tex]
Calculating this:
Paint used on the shed = [tex]\frac{3 \times 3}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex]
= 2.25
So, Rex uses 2.25 gallons of paint on the shed.

What is the perimeter of the rectangle? Write your answer in scientific notation. The area is 2.76 x 10 pw12 the width is 4.6 x 10 pw5 pw is the power
To calculate the perimeter of a rectangle in scientific notation, divide the given area by the width to find the length, then use the perimeter formula (P = 2×length + 2×width), accounting for the power of 10 in your calculations to maintain proper notation.
Explanation:The perimeter of a rectangle can be found using the formula P = 2×length + 2×width. Given the area of the rectangle (2.76 x 10^12 square units) and the width (4.6 x 10^5 units), we can find the length by dividing the area by the width. The length would therefore be the area divided by the width which is (2.76 x 10^12) / (4.6 x 10^5) = 6 x 10^6 units. Now that we have the length and width, we can calculate the perimeter by substituting into the formula: P = 2×(6 x 10^6) + 2×(4.6 x 10^5) = 1.2 x 10^7 + 9.2 x 10^5. Converting the width to the same power of 10, we get P = 1.2 x 10^7 + 0.092 x 10^7 = 1.292 x 10^7 units. This expresses the perimeter in scientific notation.
