Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide 8400 by 14000. You will see that $8400 is 60% (.60 in the calculator) you need to subtract that from 100 to find the discount. 100-60= 40

The observation deck of the willis tower in Chicago Illinois is 1353 feet above the ground elevators lift visitors to that level
Paul [167]

Answer: The the speed of elevators is 22.55.

Explanation:

It is given that observation deck of the willis tower in Chicago Illinois is 1353 feet above the ground elevators lift visitors to that level in 60 seconds.

The speed is the change in distance with respect to time.

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}

From the given information the total distance is 1353 and the total time is 60 seconds. So by the above formula we get,

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{1353}{60}

\text{Average Speed}=22.55

Therefore, the speed of elevators is 22.55.

A environmental initiative has the goal of saving at least 25 2525 million hectares of rainforest through both planting trees an
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The possible way for the initiative to accomplish its goal without exceeding its budget is use 12.5 hectares for planting trees and 12.5 hectares by purchasing land.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the variable <em>X</em> represent the amount of land used for planting trees and <em>Y</em> represent the amount of land purchased.

The goal of the environmental initiative is to save at least 25 million hectares of rain forest.

That is:

<em>X</em> + <em>Y</em> = 25....(i)

Now it is provided that:

  • The cost of planting trees is $ 400 per hectare.
  • The cost of purchasing land is $ 260 per hectare.
  • The initiative has a budget of $8,250 million.

Using the above data it can be said that:

400<em>X</em> + 260<em>Y</em> = 8250....(ii)

Solve equations (i) and (ii) simultaneously.

\ \ \ \ x+y=25]\times 260\\400x+260y=8250\\\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\\\\\Rightarrow\\\\260x+260y=6500\\400x+260y=8250\\(-)\_\_\_\_\_\ (-)\_\_\_\_(-)\_\_\_\\\\\Rightarrow\\\\-140x=-1750\\\\x=\frac{1750}{140}\\\\x=12.5

Then the value of <em>y</em> is:

x+y=25\\y=25-x\\y=25-12.5\\y=12.5

Thus, the possible way for the initiative to accomplish its goal without exceeding its budget is use 12.5 hectares for planting trees and 12.5 hectares for purchasing land.

HELP ASAPPPPP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLEST​
Illusion [34]

The two numbers have 1 as a common factor and nothing else. Hence 1 is the HCF. This proves that the HCF of any two consecutive numbers is always a one.

Two integers are relatively prime (or coprime) if there is no integer greater than one that divides them both (that is, their greatest common divisor is one). For example, 12 and 13 are relatively prime, but 12 and 14 are not.
