Answer:
x= 14
Step-by-step explanation:
When the triangles are similar, they should have a similar ratio that makes one side equal to another. In this case, the ratio is 1.5 as 24 divided by 16 is 1.5. Now, taking the side that is "similar" to the x-value which is 21, we divided 21 by 1.5 resulting in x= 14.
Answer:
3400 workers
Step-by-step explanation:
85% of men that means 15% are women
15% = 510
15/100= 510/x
100x510=51000
51000/15 =3400
x=3400
Answer:
the answer would be 29 :)
Step-by-step explanation:
If Heather puts in 1.36% of her salary into a retirement account and she makes $63,000 in a year, this can be solved by 1.36% x 63000. First convert 1.36% into a decimal. To do this, divide by 100.
1.36/100=0.0136
1.36% x 63000
=0.0136 x 63000
=856.8
Heather would put $856.8 in for the whole year. To find how much per month, divide by 12.
856.8/12=71.<span>4
</span>Rounded to the nearest dollar is $71.
Heather would put $71 into a retirement account each month.
<em>
</em><em>Note: This was solved by multiply the percent and then dividing by 12 months. You could also do this by dividing by 12 months first and then multiplying the percent.</em>
Ist amount paid = $1500
Making $350 for 10 months = 10*350 = $3500
Total amount paid = 1500 + 3500 = 5000
So an amount of $5000 was paid to cover the cost of $4500 within the ten month period.
I = PRT
Interest, I = 5000 - 4500 = 500Time, t = 10 months = 10/12 = (5/6) year.Principal P = 4500
R = I /(PT) R = 500 / (4500*5/6)
R = (500*6) / (4500*5)
R = 0.1333..
R ≈ 13.33 % per annum.
