81.54 is what percent of 75.5

1 answer:

7 0

Percent literally means per one hundred....

(p/100)(75.5)=81.54

75.5p/100=81.54 multiply both sides by 100

75.5p=8154 divide both sides by 75.5

p=8154/75.5

p=108%

....

check

75.5(108/100)=81.54

75.5(1.08)=81.54

81.54=81.54

Dream borrowed $500 at an interest rate of 8%. At the end of the loan period, she had to pay back $530. How long was the loan fo

Aliun [14]

Answer:

The loan was for 9 months only

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the time taken for a loan om an interest to be paid back

To calculate this, we use the simple interest formula

Mathematically;

I = PRT/100

where P is the principal which is the amount borrowed and that is $500 according to the question

R is the rate which is 8% according to the question

Interest can be calculated by subtracting the principal from the amount paid back = 530-500 = 30$

We now plug these values into the equation

30 = (500 × 8× T)/100

100 × 30 = 4000T

T = 3000/4000

T = 0.75 (same as 0.75 × 12 months = 9 months)

For a project, Gabrielle made a model of an Egyptian pyramid. The square base has a side length measuring 10 inches. The pyramid

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The pyramid is shown in the diagram below.
The pyramid is built from four congruent triangles and one square as the base

We have the side of the square, so the area is = 10×10 = 100

We need the height of the triangle to work out its area. We can find out by using the height of the pyramid and half of the length of the side of the square.

Using the Pythagoras rule
Height of triangle = $\sqrt{12^{2}+ 5^{2} } =13$

Area of one triangle = 1/2×10×12=60
Surface area of the pyramid = 100 + (4×60) = 340 square inches
