Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
If we consider the original price of the piece of suit is x.
Given that, on Monday during a one day sale, the price of the suit was decreased by 20%.
Therefore, the new price of the suit on Monday is
.
Now, the price of the suit on Tuesday was changed back to the original price i.e. x.
Therefore, the price is increase by (x - 0.8x) = 0.2x from the price of 0.8x.
So, the percentage change in price of the suit on Tuesday is
%. (Answer)
For a number to be divisible by 14 it needs to be both divisible by 7 and 2 which are factors of 14. Every time you have a number (x) to check if it is divisible by some larger number you find the factor of that larger number and check is the x divisible by both.
Answer: it cannot be divisible by 14.
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) of a right-angled triangle equals to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse, which equals to the distance between the bottom of the ladder and the tree + the distance we want to find (x):
5² + x² = 13²
25 + x² = 169
x² = 144
x = √144 = 12.
The distance between the ground and the top of the ladder is 12 ft.
