Because it's decreasing, you use the formula (1-x/100)y with x the percentage decreased which is here 40, and y the number decreased which is here 90
So we get
(1-40/100) * 90
(100/100 - 40/100) * 90
60/100 * 90
5400/100
54
So 90 decreased by 40% is 54
Hope this Helps :)
Answer:
x + (5x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
x stands for the number of coins Nancy has
Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9
To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9
x + (5x-9)
But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations
Answer:
easy peasy lemon squeasy
Step-by-step explanation:
1. base of triangle: it is an equilateral triangle, so any side of the triangle you take is the base, (usually the largest side of the triangle is the base)
so that would be => 10 inches,
2. a property of an equilateral triangle is that , the median of the triangle coincides with the height of the triangle,
therefore, the height bisects the base and makes a right triangle with another side, therefore by using the Pythagoras theorem, we find it to be 8.66(approx)
now,
area of the triangle would be (putting the values we just found in the formula given)
=> [(10)(8.66)]/ 2
=>43.3 square inches
+1,-1 and your other would be 1,1
