$27,000=$4,500X+$9,000
-$9000=$4500X
$18,000=$4500X
\$4500=\4500
4=x

She needs to work for 4 months

Imagine that x is the number of months that Martha has worked before earning 27,000 dollars. We also know that since the $9,000 is also included in the earning of $27,000, we will be adding $9,000 to however the rest of the equation. Since she earns $4,500 per month, and she works for x months, we can multiply these two together to form the money earned (without bonuses) after x months, 4,500x. Now we can make our equation.


$9,000 + 4,500x =$27,000
4,500x = $18,000                               <em>Subtract $9,000 to get x on one side</em>
x = 4 months                                     Divide by 4,500 to get x by itself

The price of a computer was decreased by 30% to £147. What was the price before the decrease?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

£210

Step-by-step explanation:

A decrease of 30% represents 70% of the original cost.

100% represents the original cost

Divide the price by 70 to find 1% then multiply by 100 for original cost

original cost = \frac{147}{70} × 100 = 2.1 × 100 = £210

Help me please, Find a, b, and c.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a = 6*\sqrt{3}

b = 12

c = 6\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are right triangles with 60 and 45 degree angles, their side lengths follow special triangles.

A 45-45-90 right triangle has side lengths 1-1-\sqrt{2}.

A 30-60-90 right triangle has side lengths 1 - \sqrt{3} -2.

Starting with the top triangle which has a 60 degree angle, its side length 6 corresponds to a side length of 1 in the special triangle. It is 6 times bigger so its remaining sides will be 6 times bigger too.

Side a corresponds to side length \sqrt{3}. Therefore, a = 6*\sqrt{3}.

Side b corresponds to side length 2, b = 2*6 = 12.

The bottom triangle has a 45 degree angle, its side length b= 12 corresponds to \sqrt{2}. This means \sqrt{2} was multiplied by 12 = \sqrt{2} * \sqrt{72}. This means that side c is \sqrt{72}=6\sqrt{2}.
