The percent of decrease is 15%

Further explanation:

We have to calculate the percentage decrease

The formula for percent decrease is:

Percent\ decrease= \frac{decrease}{original\ quantity}*100\\While\ decrease\ is\ calculated\ as:\\Decrease=Original\ quantity-decreased\ quantity

Given

Original Quantity=762 students

Decreased Quantity=645 students

Decrease=762-645

=117

Putting values in the formula

Percent\ Decrease=\frac{117}{762}*100\\=0.15*100\\=15\%

The percent of decrease is 15%

Solve the triangle. B = 36°, a = 38, c = 18
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

A ≈ 119.7°, b ≈ 25.7, C ≈ 24.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

A suitable app or calculator does this easily. (Since you're asking here, you're obviously not unwilling to use technology to help.)

_____

Given two sides and the included angle, the Law of Cosines can help you find the third side.

... b² = a² + c² - 2ac·cos(B)

... b² = 38² + 18² -2·38·18·cos(36°) ≈ 661.26475

... b ≈ 25.715

Then the Law of Sines can help you find the other angles. It can work well to find the smaller angle first (the one opposite the shortest side). That way, you can tell if the larger angle is obtuse or acute.

... sin(C)/c = sin(B)/b

... C = arcsin(c/b·sin(B)) ≈ 24.29515°

This angle and angle B add to less than 90°, so the remaining angle is obtuse. (∠A can also be found as 180° - ∠B - ∠C.)

... A = arcsin(a/b·sin(B)) ≈ 119.70485°

A manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens. The manufacturer makes as many packs as possible.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a manufacturer has 5,634 pens to divide into packs of 4 pens, and the manufacturer makes as many packs as possible, to determine how many packs of pens does the manufacturer make, and how many pens are left over, the following must be done calculation:

5.634 / 4 = X

1,408.5 = X

5,634 - (1,408 x 4) = X

5.634 - 5.632 = X

2 = X

Therefore, 1,408 packs can be made, and 2 pens will be left out.
