Answer:

B.64

Step-by-step explanation:

75% of a number is 120.

Let's take "x" be the number.

75% of x = 120

75/100 * x = 120

0.75x = 120

x = 120/0.75

x = 160

So the number is 160.

Now we have to find the 40% of the number 160.

= 40/100 * 160

= 0.4 *160

= 64

40% of the number is B.64

Thank you.

The height of a triangle is 4 in. greater than twice its base. The area of the triangle is no more than 168 in.2. Which inequali
Jet001 [13]
Recall that A = 1/2bh. We are given that h = 4+2b So, putting it all together: 168 = 1/2 b(4+2b) 168 = 1/2(4b + 2b^2) 168 = 2b + b^2 b^2 + 2b - 168 = 0. Something that multiplies to -168 and adds to 2? There's a trick to this. Notice 13^2 = 169. So, it's more than likely in the middle of the two numbers we're trying to find. So let's try 12 and 14. Yep. 12 x 14 = 168. So this factors into (b+14)(b-12) So b = -14 or b =12. Is it possible to have a negative length on a base? No. So 12 must be our answer. Let's check this. If 12 is our base, then according to our problem, 2*12 + 4 would be our height... or 28. so what is 12 * 28 /2? 196. Check. Hope this helped!

Brandon earns a rebate each month on his meals and movie tickets. He earns $0.50 for each movie ticket and $2 for each meal. Las
AURORKA [14]

Let ticket be x and meal be y

So $0.50 for each movie ticket = 0.50x

$2 for each meal = 2y


He purchased 22 tickets, so x = 22

0.50 * 22 = $ 11


Now the total value is $25 (with both ticket and meal)

total = t

0.50x + 2y = t

you know x = 22 and t = 25

11 + 2y = 25


Part A)

2y = 25 -11

y = 14/2

y = 7

Number of meal is 7


Part B)

(don't know about part B)

0.50x + 2y = 25

0.50(22) + 2(7) = 25

11 + 14 = 25

25 = 25

Answer:

  (a)  ΔARS ≅ ΔAQT

Step-by-step explanation:

The theorem being used to show congruence is ASA. In one of the triangles, the angles are 1 and R, and the side between them is AR. The triangle containing those angles and that side is ΔARS.

In the other triangle, the angles are 3 and Q, and the side between them is AQ. The triangles containing those angles and that side is ΔAQT.

The desired congruence statement in Step 3 is ...

  ΔARS ≅ ΔAQT
