It’s 58 because the length is increasing by 14
It looks difficult but it’s pretty easy. Just use the Ln function to bring down the powers then simplify.
Answer:
B. DE = 58
Step-by-step explanation:
The base angles (<F and <E) of the ∆DEF are congruent/equal. This means that ∆DEF is an isosceles triangle.
This implies that, the two sides (DF and DE) that are opposite to the base angles are congruent/equal.
DE = 40 (given) => option B is INCORRECT
Therefore:
8x - 24 = 40
Solve for x
8x - 24 + 24 = 40 + 24
8x = 64
8x/8 = 64/8
x = 8 (option C is CORRECT)
Let's find DF and FE:
DF = 8x - 24
Plug in the value of x
DF = 8(8) - 24
DF = 64 - 24
DF = 40 (Option D is CORRECT)
FE = 6x + 10
FE = 6(8) + 10
FE = 48 + 10
FE = 58 (Option A is CORRECT)
The only incorrect statement is:
B. DE = 58
Answer:
b. 58%
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the area of the entire rectangle using the formula A = lw.
The lowercase "L" is for length.
"w" is for width.
The lighter square is 10 units long by 5 inches wide.
A = lw
A = (10 in)(5 in) Multiply
A = 50 in²
Calculate the area for the shaded rectangle, 7 inches by 3 inches.
A = lw
A = (7 in)(3 in) Multiply
A = 21 in²
Calculate the area for the non-shaded region by subtracting the shaded area from the total area.
50 in² - 21 in² = 29 in²
The chance that a point in the large rectangle will NOT be in the shaded region is 29/50.
Convert this fraction to decimal form by using a calculator. Divide the top number by the bottom number.
29/50 = 0.58
0.58 is in decimal form. To convert it to a percentage, multiply the number by 100.
0.58 = 58%
Therefore the probability that a point chosen inside the large rectangle is not in the shaded region is 58%.
Answer:
The total cost of the meal is $58.56.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for problem solving with percentages. In order to multiply by a percentage, we must first convert the percentage to a decimal by diving the percent by 100. Since the Hu family is going to leave a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount of $48, we will need to multiply 48 x .15 = $7.20. The Hu family must also pay a 7% sales tax on the cost of the meal. In order to find the cost of the meal, including tax, we take the price of 48 x 1.07 = $51.36, which would be the original cost plus an additional 7% tax. Lastly, we would need to include the tip to the post-tax total: $51.36 + $7.20 = $58.56.
