Mathematics

jok3333 [9.3K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: The percent gain was 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Cost price of lot = $1,200

Selling price of lot = $1,500

The percent gain = \dfrac{\text{selling price- cost price}}{\text{cost price}}\times100

⇒ Percent gain =\dfrac{1500-1200}{1200}\times100\%

\Rightarrow\text{ Percent gain}=\dfrac{300}{1200}\times100\%\\\\\Rightarrow\text{ Percent gain}=\dfrac{1}{4}\times100\%\\\\\Rightarrow\text{ Percent gain}=25\%

Hence, the percent gain was 25% based on his purchase.

Max built a rectangular Prism and a rectangular Pyramid using beach sand. The prism and the pyramid have the same base area and
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Three times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Figures: Rectangular Prism and Rectangular Pyramid

Let the dimension of the prism be:

l = length

w = width

h = height

Amount of sand used is the volume (V1) and it is calculated using;

V_1 = l * w * h

V_1 = lw h

Since the pyramid has the same base area and height as the prism, the its dimension would be:

l = length

w = width

h = height

Amount of sand used is the volume (V2) and it is calculated using;

V_2 = \frac{1}{3}*(lwh)

So, we have:

V_1 = lw h

V_2 = \frac{1}{3}*(lwh)

Substitute lwh for V1 in the second equation

V_2 = \frac{1}{3}V_1

Multiply both sides by 3

3 * V_2 = \frac{1}{3}V_1 * 3

3 * V_2 = V_1

Reorder

V_1 = 3 * V_2

V_1 = 3 V_2

<em>Hence, the amount of sand used in building the prism is three times the amount of sand used in building the pyramid</em>

Where does the circumference of each kind of triangle lie? Question 1 options: Inside the triangle. Outside the triangle. On the
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Inside the triangle - Acute Triangle

Outside the triangle - Obtuse Triangle

On the hypotenuse - Right Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>circumcenter</u> is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle intersect.

In the special case of a right triangle, the circumcenter lies exactly at the midpoint of the hypotenuse.

The circumcenter of an acute triangle lies inside the triangle.

The circumcenter of an obtuse triangle lies outside the triangle.

Can someone please help!
vekshin1

Answer:

<h2>43.3cm²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Triangle = Base * Height * 1/2

Base = 5

Height = 4.33

Area of a Triangle = 5 * 4.33 * 1/2

Area of a Triangle = 10.825

There are four triangles.

Surface Area = Area of a Triangle * Number of Triangles

Surface Area = 10.825 * 4

Surface Area = 43.3cm²

Make an equation that has the numbers : -3.78 , -1.2y, and -4.2y
kodGreya [7K]

Answer: In solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, first you need to arrange the numbers in anyway, separated by operations. I just did:

-3.78 + (-1.2y + -4.2y)

We then need to come up with the other side of the equation.

For this, I added the like terms:

-3.78 + (-1.2y + -4.2y) = -3.78 -5.4y

Then, I came up with a value for y. Y = 5

Then, I multiplied -5.4 by 5, getting -27 so,

-3.78 + (-1.2y + -4.2y) = -3.78 - 27

Again, I collected like terms:

-3.78 + (-1.2y + -4.2y) = -30.78

Now, I have my equation.

———————————————————————————————

HOW TO SOLVE THE EQUATION

-3.78 + (-1.2y + -4.2y) = -30.78

1. Add 3.78 to both sides

-1.2y + -4.2y = -27

2. Collect like terms

-5.4y = -27

3. Divide both side by -5.4

y = 5
