Percent means parts out of 100
85%=85/100=0.85
'of' means multiply

therefor
85% of x equals 17 means
0.85 times x=17
divide both sides by 0.85
x=20



the number is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Angle ADC = 118°

According to the question

11x - 7 + 5x - 3 = 118

=  > 11x   - 7 + 5x = 118 + 3

=  > 11x + 5x = 121 + 7

=  > 16x = 128

= x =  \frac{128}{16}

=  > x = 8

Now let's find the value of angle ADB

In the question it is mentioned that Angle ADB = (11x - 7)°

We know that x = 8 °

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>so let's get into this sum :)</h3>

Angle ADB = (11x - 7)°

= (11 × 8 - 7)°

= (88-7)°

= 81 °

So the answer is the first option i.e. 81°.

HOPE IT HELPS YOU!!

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by ...

  x = -b/(2a)

for f(x) = ax^2 +bx +c.

We see that the vertex is at x = 1, and we are given a = -16. Then we can find "b" from ...

  1 = -b/(2(-16))

  32 = b

We know the y-intercept of the equation is 5 (the starting height), so the equation must be ...

  h(t) = -16t^2 +32t +5 . . . . . matches the last choice
