Masja [62]

Answer:

I think the house would now costs $85,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I multiplied by how many years between 1950 to 2015 and 5 to get 325.

Next, I divided 20,000 by 100 to get 200 to find 1% of 20,000.

Then, I multiplied 325 by 200 to get 65,000

Finally, I added 20,000 to 65,000 to get 85,000

So, I guess/answer is $85,000

If I was wrong, then just say, "Sorry, but that was incorrect."

scoray [572]

Answer:

6.93 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a right triangle (90°), so you do as follow:

If I understand correctly, you are looking for the hypotenuse so

$cos(30) = \frac{PQ}{QR} = \frac{8 cm}{QR}$

That is equal to $QR = cos(30)*8 cm = 6.928 cm$
