Answer:
Answer A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer A is correct. Sides 3.6 and 3 form one ratio and sides 5.4 and 4.5 form another ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides.
To find the parameter you have to add the length and the width and multiply by two
And your example long is the length and wide is the width so add it and times two answer is seven
Because the semi circle is too which is what it's inside but the answer is still seven
It looks like you might have intended to say the roots are 7 + i and 5 - i, judging by the extra space between 7 and i.
The simplest polynomial with these characteristics would be
but seeing as each of the options appears to be a quartic polynomial, I suspect f(x) is also supposed to have only real coefficients. In that case, we need to pair up any complex root with its conjugate to "complete" f(x). We end up with
which appears to most closely resemble the third option. Upon expanding, we see f(x) does indeed have real coefficients:
You haven't provided the $ or % that he gets, but I will attempt to use algebraic terms to explain it instead.
If the salesman sells a car for $<em>a</em> and gets <em>b</em>% of the sale price as commission, then what you need to do is divide the <em>a</em> by 100, then multiply it by <em>b</em> to find out <em>b</em>% of <em>a</em>. This will be the commission that he will earn.
<em>a </em>/ 100 x <em>b</em> = commission earned in $
Edit
<em>You've now supplied me with the $ and %, let me explain it again.</em>
To find out the commission that he will earn, you divide 8,100 by 100 then multiply it by 9.
8,100 / 100 = 81
81 x 9 = $729 commission earned.
Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction who picked apples is the rest of the students:
1 - 5/8 = 3/8
of them.
So the number who picked apples relative to the number who picked bananas is ...
apples/bananas = (3/8)/(5/8) = 3/5
Multiplying this by the number who picked bananas gives the number who picked apples:
apples = bananas · 3/5 = 80·3/5 = 48
48 students picked apples.
____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
Let "a" represent the number who picked apples. The ratio of banana choosers to the total is 5/8, and there were 80 who chose bananas. That gives rise to the equation ...
80/(80 +a) = 5/8
640 = 400 +5a . . . . . . multiply by 8(80+a) and simplify
240 = 5a . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 400
240/5 = a = 48 . . . . . . divide by 5
48 students picked apples.
