I'll give a practice problem to help explain it a bit better.
Here, let's try to solve 45% of of 60.
First, we convert the percentage into a decimal. To turn any percentage into a decimal you move the point two spaces to the left.
That means 45% as a decimal is .45.
Next, we multiply our number, 60, by the decimal .45.
60×.45=27.
That means 45% of 60 is 27.
To sum it all up, you have to get the percentage, move the decimal point two spaces to the left, and multiply it by the number you were trying to find the percentage of.
Have a wonderful day! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations:
y = x² + 3x - 29 ------ (i)
y = 2x - 9 ---------------- (ii)
Now to solve this problem, we must determine the value of x and y;
Equate equations 1 and 2;
x² + 3x - 29 = 2x - 9
x² + 3x - 2x - 29 + 9 = 0
x² + x - 20 = 0
x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = 0
x(x + 5 ) - 4(x + 5) = 0
(x - 4) (x+ 5) = 0
x - 4 = 0 or x + 5 = 0
x = 4 or x = -5;
So; solve for y now;
y = 2x - 9
input x = 4 or x = -5;
y = 2(4) - 9 or y = 2(-5) - 9
y = -1 or y = -19
It's kinda blurry. I'm sorry!!
by pythagorean formula, the last side is √(61)
by cos rule
cos A
A = 39.81
C ) 131 is the answer
in the upside-vertex (not inverted) triangle, angle to your left hand side would be equal to x (as interior alternate angles) = 68
and the angle to the right would be 180-y= 180-117 = 163 (as linear angles)
so the angle at the vertex = 180 - (68 + 163) =49 (as angles in a triangle sum upto 180)
so the angle mz = 180 - 49 = 131 degrees (as linear pair of angles or angle in a straight line)
