I think it is D. not sure tho
Heyo Kiddo. How are you doing today?
Let's figure this out.
So, if "one number is p," then we can say the other number can represent the variable z.
We can conclude that: p + z = 45
For us to solve for z :
p + z = 45
- p -p
So then,
z = 45 - p
You're welcome. :)
Answer:
CU = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have similar triangles, we can use proportions. Put the small triangle sides over the large triangle side.
WC WD
----------- = -------------
WU WV
26 20
----------- = -------------
36x-1 110
Using cross products
26*110 = 20* (36x-1)
Distribute
2860 = 720x - 20
Add 20 to each side
2860+20 = 720x-20+20
2880 = 720x
Divide by 720
2880/720 = 720x/720
4=x
We need to find CU
CU = WU - WC
Substituting in what we know
CU = 36x-1 -26
Since we know x=4
= 36*4 -1 -26
144 - 27
= 117
Answer:
The percent of decrease can be calculated with this formula:
(Original value - New Value)/(Original Value)
In this case, the original value is 117 and the new value is 91.
So the percent of decrease is 26/117, or about 22%.
Hope this helps!
