Mathematics

Mashutka [201]3 years ago
6 0

well, the number is x, hmmm well, whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything, therefore, 25% of x is just (25/100) * x.


\bf \stackrel{\textit{two-thirds of 24}}{\cfrac{2}{3}\cdot 24}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{25\% of \underline{x}}}{\cfrac{25}{100}\cdot x}\implies \cfrac{48}{3}=\cfrac{25x}{100}\implies 16=\cfrac{x}{4}\implies 64

Two of the sides of a right triangle are 8 and 6 units long. How long is the third side? Find all possible answers.
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

10 units.

2√7 units.

- (or 5.29 units to the nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the 2 sides are legs of the triangle ( that is they are at 90 degrees to each other) the third side, by Pythagoras  theorem:

=  √(6^2 + 8^2)

=  √100

= 10 units.

The other possibility is that 8 is the length of the hypotenuse, in which case

The third side

=  √(8^2 - 6^2)

=  √28

= 2√7 units.

Radda [10]

First solve the return in each price per unit

Return = number units sold x price per unit

Return1 = 5000 units x Php 900

Return1 = php 4,500,000

Next is solve the other price per unit

Return2 = number units sold x price per unit

Return2 = (5000 + 1500 units0 x ( php 900 – 100)

Return2 = php 5,200,000

So the php 800 per unit will have greater return
