The 60% of the 60 equals 36 after expressed in the fraction of 100, so the answer is 60%.

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of two numbers expressed in the fraction of 100 parts. It is the measure to compare two data, the % sign is used to express the percentage.

Let's suppose the x% of 60 equals 36

So,

x% of 60 = 36

60x/100 = 36

6x/10 = 36

x/10 = 6

x = 60%

Thus, the 60% of the 60 equals 36 after expressed in the fraction of 100, so the answer is 60%.

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEC, find the values of x and y.

Mumz [18]

The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal, it is obtained by Pythagoras theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given are,

From ΔABC,

AB= 6

BC= 10

AC = x

From ΔDEC,

CD= 28

DE= 21

CE = y

Step:1

Pythagoras theorem from ΔABC,

$BC^{2}=AB^{2} + AC^{2}$ ...............(1)

Substitute the values,

$10^{2}$ = $6^{2}$ + $AC^{2}$

100 = 36 + $AC^{2}$

$AC^{2}$ = 100 - 36

= 64

AC = $\sqrt{64}$

AC = 8

AC = x = 8

Step:2

Pythagoras theorem for ΔDEC,

$CE^{2} = CD^{2} + DE^{2}$ ................(2)

From the values,

$CE^{2}$ = $28^{2}$ + $21^{2}$

$CE^{2}$ = 784 + 441

= 1225

CE = $\sqrt{1225}$

CE = 35

CE = y = 35

Result:

The values are x=8 and y=35, if the given ΔABC and ΔDEC are equal.

The question here has wrong numbers. Here is the correct question:

A supermarket is selling 2 types of candies, orange slices and strawberry leaves. The orange slices cost $1.27 per pound and the strawberry leaves cost $1.77 per pound. How many pounds of each should be mixed to get a 13-pound mixture that sells for $19.01?

Answer:

8 pounds of orange slices and 5 pounds of strawberry leaves

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is related to simple algebra

Let x represent orange slices weight

Let y represent strawberry leaves weight

The sum of the weights of x and y will be 13 pounds

So first equation will be x + y = 13

The total cost will be $19.01

So the second equation will be

1.27x + 1.77y = 19.01

Using first equation

x + y = 13

x = 13 – y

Substituting this in the second equation

1.27 (13 - y) + 1.77y = 19.01

16.51 – 1.27y + 1.77y = 19.01

16.51 + 0.5y = 19.01

y = 5

Using this value of y to find x

x = 13 – y

x = 13 – 5

x = 8

So 8 pounds of orange slices and 5 pounds of strawberry leaves

A. First move all to the left side of the equation(Normal form)

x^3 - 49x= 0

B. Factor out an x, which is the GCF (Factored form)

x(x^2 - 49) = 0

C. Find solutions by making each x piece equal to 0. The first part is just x=0 and the second part is just factoring the difference of squares and then solving.

x=0, x^2 - 49 =0

x=0, x + 7 = 0, x - 7 = 0

Therefore, the answers for Part C are:
x = 0, x = -7, x = 7
