Use trigonometry.
sinQ = 14/50 = 0.28
-> angle Q = sin^-1(0.28) = approx 16 degrees
-> cosQ = A/H -> cos16 = PQ/50
=> PQ = 50*cos16 = approx 48.06
So yea.
Answer:
Number of people that can be served 7 ladles = 100 people
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that;
Initial number of ladles proposed per person = 5
Number of persons to be fed based on 5 ladles = 140 persons
Thus, amount of ladles based on that data is;
140 people x 5 ladle/1 person = 700 ladles full of soup
Now, since the cook decides to give 7 ladles full of soup to each person, the number of people that can be fed will now be;
700 ladles ÷ 7 ladles/person = 100 persons
in the equation as we can say x= 2y-10.
so, substitute x=2y-10 everywhere then the x in 1240 gets cancelled with 2y-10 then solve the remaining you will get 4y-20+3y=1240
7y=1260
y=1260/7
y=180
then substitute the value of y everywhere
2x+3y=1240
2x+3(180)=1240
2x=1240-540
2x=700
x=350
DONE.
Use pythagorean theorem
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 1.5^2 + 2^2
c2 = 2.25 + 4
c2 = 6.25
c = 2.5
12.5% goes to .125
so .125 as a fraction is:
