It is <em><u>400</u></em>. Since 5 x 8 = 40 add the 0 to the end its 400!!
Hope this helps <33!!
Given that the number is x,
10% increase will give us a new number of:
110/100*x
=1.1x
10% decrease will give us a new number of:
90/100*1.1x
=0.99x
This implies the new number is less than the original number
4/1 / 5/2 = 4/1 * 2/5 = 8/5
1 7/8 = 15/8
15/8 * 8/5 = 120/40 = 12/4 = 3 inches
shorter side should be 3 inches
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
.20x + .68(120 - x) = .54(120) (Distribute .68 to 120 and -x)
.20x + 81.6 - .68x = .54(120) (multiply .54 and 120)
.20x + 81.6 - .68x = 69.6 ( add .20x and -.68x)
-.48x + 81.6 = 69.6 ( subtract 81.6 on each side)
-.48x = -12 (divide -12 by -.48)
x = 25
