$\frac{3x}{8}-9=13+\frac{x}{8}$

3x - 72 = 104 + x

3x - x = 104 + 72

2x = 176

x = 176 : 2

x = 88

After a 15% increase, a town has 115 people. What was the population before the increase?

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

100 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Population Of People=115Percentagencrease=15%

The New Population corresponds to 115%

(That is 100+15)

We want to find the population that corresponds to 100% that is the original population.

Therefore Original Population;

 $\frac{100}{115}\times {115}{}$ 

 $100 \: people$

Prove the following theorem indirectly. We will give you a start.. . Prove that a triangle cannot have two right angles.. A tria

ladessa [460]

Suppose a triangle had two right angles.
The sum of all angles of any triangle is 180°.
The measure of a right angle is 90°.
By difference, the measure of the other angle can be determined.
Since the two angles have a measure of 90° each, then by difference, the measure of the third angle is 180° - (90° + 90°) = 0°.
If the angle is 0°, there would only be two sides.
A triangle has three sides.
Therefore, a triangle can't have two right angles.
