In order to solve this kind of problem, we must find the difference between two negative numbers describing elevation. Although when you have 2 negative numbers in a subtraction-elevation problem, the elevation difference won't be negative... It would be positive. -56 - (-14) would usually equal -42 feet but that would just describe a regular negative subtraction problem, so it becomes 42 feet. This answer is positive since it describe the distance between these integers.
3 is incorrect, should be 28.9
16^2 + 18^2 = EG^2
256 + 324
580 = EG^2
EG ≈ 24.08
16^2 + 24.08^2 = AG^2
256 + 580 = AG^2
836 = AG^2
AG ≈ 28.9
5 is incorrect:
The base is 8.
Draw an altitude the base.
Since the triangle is isoceles, it divides the base in half.
Half of that base is 4.
Two right triangles have been formed with one leg 4 and hypotenuse 8.
4^2 + b^2 = 8^2
16 + b^2 = 64
b^2 = 48
b ≈ 6.93
The height of the triangle is 6.93, the base is 8.
A = bh/2 = 8*6.93/2 ≈ 27.7 ≈ 28
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure my way is going to be any quicker or better. Let's take an example.
Suppose you start with 456
Put a decimal at the end of the 6. You get 456.
Shift the decimal to the left one place 45.6
Divide by 2
22.8 (done mentally)
Note: dividing by 2 is easier than dividing by 5. Or multiplying by 5 for that matter.
Check the result.
456 * 5/100 =2280 / 100.
Shift a decimal 2 places to the left.
22.80 which agrees with your result.
75% of 225 = 300.
10% = 30
20% = 60
30% = 90
40% = 120
50% = 150
60% = 180
70% = 210
80% = 240
90% = 270

Answer: Assuming you mean that the original cost was doubled and now equals $60, the camera costed $30. Assuming the camera's price has been doubled from $60, it is $120. The wording is a bit unclear, so I'm giving you both answers.
Step-by-step explanation: To find half of the price of $60, simply divide it by 2, which gives you $30.
