Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

25 percent *78 =

(25:100)*78 =

(25*78):100 =

1950:100 = 19.5

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 78.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$78=100\%$.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=25\%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

$78=100\%(1)$.

$x=25\%(2)$.

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{78}{x}=\frac{100\%}{25\%}$

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

$\frac{x}{78}=\frac{25}{100}$

$\Rightarrow x=19.5$

Therefore, $25\%$ of $78$ is $19.5$

A seal went 15 below sea level to catch a fish. A sea lion dove 6 feet less than two times as deep as the seal to catch a larger
anygoal [31]

Answer:

2\times 15-6 = 24\ below\ sea\ level

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance traveled by seal to catch the fish = 15 below sea level

Sea lion wanted to catch a larger fish so sea lion dove 6 feet lesser than two time the distance that the seal traveled.

To find:

The expression to represent the position of the sea lion in the sea.

Solution:

If the distance traveled by seal is represented by D then as per the question statement:

Twice of D = 2\times D

6 lesser than twice of D = 2\times D - 6

Now, putting the value of D = 15

Therefore, the expression to represent the sea lion's position w.r.to sea level.

2\times 15-6\\ = 24\ below\ sea\ level

Two sides of a triangle are given as 28 inches and 42 inches. find all possible lengths for the third side of the triangle
timofeeve [1]
The longest side of  a triangle must be less than the sum of the other 2 sides

2 senarios

the 3rd side is the longest
the 3rd side is not the longest



for the 3rd side is the longest

3rdside<28+42
3rdside<70


for 3rd side isn't the longest
42 is longest
42<28+3rdside
14<3rdside

so we've got
3rdside<70 and 14<3rdside

so
14<3rdside<70

the 3rd side can be any number from 14in to 70in except 14in and 70in
