What is the percent from 39 to 17

Mathematics
1 answer:
AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: 56.4102564% decrease

Explanation: First determine whether the number is increasing or decreasing. Since it changes from 39 to 17, it's going down so it's decreasing.

Now to find the percent decrease,

we divide the amount of change by the original number.

The amount of change is the difference between the two numbers

which in this case is 39 - 17 and the original number is 39.

So we have \frac{39 - 17}{39}

39 - 17 is 22 so we're left with \frac{22}{39} which gives us 56.4102564

Remember however that our problem is asking for a <em>percent</em>, not a decimal. So we need to write 56.4102564 as a percent by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to get 56.4102564.

So when a number changes from 39 to 17, it has decreased by 56.4102564%.

The length of a rectangular picture frame is 4 inches less than three times the width. The perimeter is 136 inches. Find the len
natulia [17]

Answer:

The width of the rectangle is 18 inches, and the length is 50 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can designate a variable, x, to represent the width of the rectangle.  To represent the length and widths of the rectangle, we can say that the length is 3x-4 and the width is just x.  We can then write an equation for the perimeter and solve:

2(3x-4) + 2x = 136

6x - 8 + 2x = 136

8x - 8 = 136

8x = 144

x = 18

To calculate the length

(3x - 4)

3(18) - 4 = 50 in

Given the figure below, calculate the area
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<em>1+√3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * AC * BD

We need to get AC

AC = AD+DC

Get base AD using SOH CAH TOA

tan 45 = 4/AD

AD = 4/tan45

AD = 4/1

AD = 4

Get DC

tan 30 = 4/DC

DC = 4/tan 30

DC = 4/(1/√3)

DC = 4√3

AC = 4 + 4√3

AC = 4(1+√3)

Get the Area of the triangle

<em>Area = 1/2 * 4 *  4(1+√3)</em>

<em>Area of the triangle = 1+√3</em>
