Answer:

The distance between opposite corners of the living room is 30ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be thought of as a right triangle and we want to know its hypotenuse

To calculate one side of a right triangle from the other 2 sides we have to use Pythagoras

h = hypotenuse

a = leg 1 = 18ft

b = leg 2 = 24ft

h² = a² + b²

we replace the known values

h² = (18ft)² + (24ft)²

h² = 324ft² + 576ft²

h² = 900ft²

h = √(900ft²)

h = 30ft

The hypotenuse is 30ft

All the items on the sale rack were 75 percent off their original price.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

112 $ is the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

$x \times 0.75 = 84 \\ x = 84 \div 0.75 \\ x = 112$

you have to think that the original price multiplied by 0.75 (also known as 75%) gave the result of what he saves i.e 84 $. So we put up an equation with the original price multiplied by 75% which equals the 84 $ he saved on buying that item on sale
