Answer: Value of CP = 12 units

Value of CM = 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Given: ΔACM, and  m∠C = 90º and CP⊥ AM and

AC = 15  , AP = 9, PM = 16

Now, we need to find the value of CP and CM,

As we know the formula :

PM=\frac{CM^2}{AM}\\\\16=\frac{CM^2}{16+9}\\\\16=\frac{CM^2}{25}\\\\16\times 25=CM^2\\\\\sqrt{16\times 25}=CM\\\\4\times 5=CM\\\\20=CM

Similarly,

CP=\frac{AC\times CM}{AM}\\\\CP=\frac{15\times 20}{25}\\\\CP=3\times 4\\\\CP=12

Hence, Value of CP = 12 units

Value of CM = 20 units.

CP=12, CM=20. CP is the altitude of the triangle. ACP is a right triangle, so you can solve for CP using Pythagorean's theorem. CP=\sqrt(AC^2-CP^2)=\sqrt(15^2-9^2)=12. AM=AP+PM=9+16=25. Triangle ACM is another right triangle, and CM=\sqrt(AM^2-AC^2)=\sqrt(25^2-15^2)=20.

I need an equation that has variables on both sides were x = 17
Andrei [34K]

3 (3 + x) = 5x - 25

9 + 3x = 5x - 25

Add 25 to each side

34 + 3x = 5x

Subtract 3x from each side

34 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

17 = x

Pam and Amanda and Mike work at different clothing stores. Amanda made twice what Pam earned and Julie
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Pam: $181

Amanda: $362

Julie: $452

Step-by-step explanation:

(What does Mike have to do with this problem?)

Let a = Amanda's pay

Let p = Pam's pay

Let j = Julie's pay

"Amanda made twice what Pam earned"

a = 2p

"Julie made $90 more than Amanda"

j = a + 90

j = 2p + 90

Pam earned p

Total salary

a + p + j = 2p + p + 2p + 90

Total salary

$995

2p + p + 2p + 90 = 995

5p = 905

p = 181

a = 2p = 2(181) = 362

j = 2p + 90 = 362 + 90 = 452

Answer:

Pam: $181

Amanda: $362

Julie: $452

The number 360 is increased by 25%. The result is then decreased by 50%. What is the final number?
Vladimir [108]
So if 360 is increased by 25%, you would end up with 450 (360 x 1.25), than if the result, 450 is decreased by 50% ( 450 x .50 = 225) (450 - 225 = 225) you would end up with 225.
