15 and 24 are the legs of the right triangle, so they are your a and b.

15^2 + 24^2 = c^2

225 + 576 = c^2

801 =c^2

square root of 801 = 28.3

A washing machine sells for $201 after being discounted by 40 percent. What was the original price of the washing machine?

olga_2 [115]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price be x

Price after 40% discount is $201

Therefore

x × 40% = $201

x = 201 ÷ (40/100)

x = 502.5

Therefore, the original price is $502.5

Hope it helps :)

Tom caught 4 fish and his son caught 12 fish. The number of fish that Tom’s caught was what percent of the number of fish his so

Fofino [41]

Answer:

33.3 % (Approx) percent of fish that Tom’s caught of the number of fish his son caught .

25% is the percent of the total amount Tom caught.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

$Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ values}$

Part First

As given

Tom caught 4 fish and his son caught 12 fish.

Here

Part value = 4

Total value = 12

Put in the formula

$Percentage = \frac{4\times 100}{12}$

$Percentage = \frac{400}{12}$

Percentage = 33.3 % (Approx)

Therefore the 33.3 % (Approx) percent of fish that Tom’s caught of the number of fish his son caught .

Second Part

As given

Tom caught 4 fish and his son caught 12 fish.

Total number of fish caught = 4 + 12

= 16

Part value = 4

Total value = 16

Put in the formula

$Percentage = \frac{4\times 100}{16}$

$Percentage = \frac{400}{16}$

Percentage = 25%

Therefore the 25% is the percent of the total amount Tom caught.

Please help me understand how to do this and the answer!

Turn F(x) into vertex form:

y=x^2+8x+6
y-6=x^2+8x
y-6+16=x^2+8x+16
y+10=(x+4)^2
Thus the vertex is (-4,-10)

This is a minimum because the parabola is up up, or is positive

Two certificates of deposit pay interest at rates that differ by 4%. Money invested for one year in the first CD earns $175 inte

wolverine [178]

We are told that the principle is the same for both investments so we can say:

315=P(r+4)/100 and 175=Pr/100 solving both for P you have:

P=31500/(r+4) and P=17500/r since P=P:

17500/r=31500/(r+4)

175(r+4)=315r

175r+700=315r

-140r+700=0

-140r=-700

r=5

So the rates are 5% and (5+4)=9%

check...

P(9/100)=315 and P(5/100)=175

P=31500/9 and P=17500/5

P=157500/45 and P=157500/45

So P=P

note: P=$3500

3500(9/100)=$315

3500(5/100)=$175
