they are 2 similar triangles, one is smaller than the other. they are in the ratio of 2:1,
hence 7x =56÷2
7x=28
x=4
Divide the population of 65 or older by the percentage:
30.2 million / 0.122 = 247.54 million total population. (Round answer as needed)
X is 19
Explanation: because the opposite side of the angle is 134 degrees the other side also has to be 134 degrees. So we do 134-20 which is 114 and then 114 divided by 6 because the number next to x is 6 and the number that is x has to be 19 as 19x6 is 114.
I think this is the right answer and I hope it helps :)
Answer:
a.
500x+0.04=y
400x+0.05=y
for percentages move decimal to the left twice
Replace the words with what you know
(Original cost)(6%)=5.25
(Original cost)(0.06)=5.25
(original cost)=5.25/0.06=87.5
