Apom-pom manufacturer makes each of its pom-poms with 35% white strands (w), 25% blue strands (b), and 40% red strands (r). if each pom-pom has a total of 80 strands, how many of strands of each color are needed to make a pair of pom-poms? in this activity, you’ll work through this pom-pom problem step by step.

28 white strands , 20 blue strands and 32 red strands are needed to make a pair of pom-poms

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :A pom-pom manufacturer makes each of its pom-poms with 35% white strands (w), 25% blue strands (b), and 40% red strands (r).

To Find : If each pom-pom has a total of 80 strands, how many of strands of each color are needed to make a pair of pom-poms?

Solution:

Total Strands = 80

White Strands = 35%

No. of white strands =

Blue Strands = 25%

No. of blue strands =

Red Strands = 40%

No. of Red strands =

Hence 28 white strands , 20 blue strands and 32 red strands are needed to make a pair of pom-poms

the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial of the form a^2-2ab+b^2:

option a. true

step-by-step explanation:

9x^2-12x+4

comparing with the form a^2-2ab+b^2

1.) a^2=9x^2

solving for a: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(a^2)=sqrt(9x^2)

a=sqrt(9) sqrt(x^2)

a=3x

2.) b^2=4

solving for b: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(b^2)=sqrt(4)

b=2

to be a perfet square trinomial 2ab must be equal to 12x. let's check:

2ab = 2 (3x) (2)

2ab = 12x

correct

the answer is:

the correct option is the option b.

to calculate the surface area of the right cylinder, we need to use the following formula:

from the picture we know that:

so, substituting and calculting we have:

hence, we have that the correct option is the option b.

have a nice day!
