a. Jacob is the most popular name among the 2,086,814 males born in 2000. The Jacobs make up 1.6516% of all males born that year. How many Jacobs were born in 2000?

34,466

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of males born in 2000 = 2,086,814

Percentage of males bearing Jacob of all males born in 2000 = 1.6516%

Required:

Number of Jacobs born in 2000

Solution:

Number of Jacobs born in 2000 = 1.6516% of number of males born in 2000.

Number of Jacobs born in 2000 is approximately 34,466.

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

the answer is 0.000652422

but if you ment to ask what is 6131 divided by 4, it is 1532.75.
