Answer:

$36

Step-by-step explanation:

A percent is always out of 100, no matter what.

If you need to find the percent of something try cross multipling like this.

x/720 x 5/100

5 x 720 = 3600

100x = 3600

divide 3600 by 100

and you get 36

Answer: $36

Step-by-step explanation:

a) we are looking for 5% of $720 or looking for how much commission was already taken which also means 5% of $720. Answer a = $36

as 10% = $72 and 5% = 72/2 = $36

b) If the question says what was the original amount if 5% the commission was taken already. Here we do answer b) = 105% of 720 =756 756-720 5% = 36 and we already found the answer to be $756 if being asked for an original sum.

Answer:

The length of side of largest square is 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given suares are when joined in the way as shown in picture their sides form a right agnled triangle.

Area of square 1 and perimeter of square 2 will be used to calculate the sides of the triangle.

So,

<u>Area of square 1: 81 square inches</u>

$s^2 = A\\s^2 = 81\\\sqrt{s^2} = \sqrt{81}\\s = 9$

<u>Perimeter of square 2: 48 inches</u>

$4*side = P\\4* side = 48\\side = \frac{48}{4}\\side = 12\ inches$

We can see that a right angled triangle is formed.

Here

Base = 12 inches

Perpendicular = 9 inches

And the side of largest square will be hypotenuse.

Pythagoras theorem can be used to find the length.

$(H)^2 = (P)^2+(B)^2\\H^2 = (9)^2+(12)^2\\H^2 = 81+144\\H^2 = 225\\\sqrt{H^2} = \sqrt{225}\\H = 15$

Hence,

The length of side of largest square is 15 inches

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Sampling Error

Step-by-step explanation:

When the researcher randomly selected 200 people, he is creating an sample or subset from the population, that would be all the people in the earth. The error obtained was product of the fact that the analysis he made was estimated from the sample and not the whole population. There is no other mentioned factor that could cause an error, so the answer would be a sampling Error.
