You can set up an equation based off of the information given:

x represents the unknown number

3/5x - 1 = 23

add 1 to both sides to isolate the 3/5x

3/5x = 24

divide both sides by 3/5 to solve for x

x = 120/3

120/3 can be simplified into 40

Final answer: x = 40

Suppose you inherited a house that was purchased in 1950 for 20,000. It is now 2015 and the value of the house has increased by
Masja [62]

Answer:

I think the house would now costs $85,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I multiplied by how many years between 1950 to 2015 and 5 to get 325.

Next, I divided 20,000 by 100 to get 200 to find 1% of 20,000.

Then, I multiplied 325 by 200 to get 65,000

Finally, I added 20,000 to 65,000 to get 85,000

So, I guess/answer is $85,000

If I was wrong, then just say, "Sorry, but that was incorrect."

Help I'm not sure if this is the answer?<br><br> (This question is about trigonometric ratios)
dem82 [27]

Answer:

  (b) 15.32

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use your triangle sense to answer this.

The side x will always be shorter than the hypotenuse, 20. This eliminates the last two choices.

If the angle is 45°, then the sides are equal at about 0.707 times the length of the hypotenuse. That would make them 0.707×20 = 14.14. Since the angle is greater than 45°, the opposite side will be greater than 14.14. Only one answer choice fits between 14 and 20: the second choice -- 15.32.

__

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relation ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  sin(50°) = x/20

  x = 20×sin(50°) . . . . multiply by 20 to find x

  x ≈ 15.32 . . . . . . . . . use your calculator to evaluate

__

The attachment is intended to show how the triangle side lengths change with angle.
