Please help me I’ve been stuck for awhile

Paul [167]3 years ago

Hey there! I'm happy to help you out!

Let's think of our original price ($P) as 100%. This is also the same thing as 1 because 100% is one whole thing.

Now, we see that he got a 15% off discount. Now, we just subtract 15% from 100% to see what percent he actually payed.

100%-15%=85%

This means that $R is 85% of $P (100%).

Answer A is not correct because 0.85% is less than 1%, which is not 85%.

Answer B is not correct either because 0.15% is also less than 1%.

Answer C is correct because $R is 85% of the original cost.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

A triangle has two sides measuring 10 inches and 16 inches. The angle opposite the 16-inch side measures 68.9°. Solve the triang
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

measure of two unknown angles are 35.7° and 75.4°

measure of one unknown side is 16.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

i used law of sines to find the angle opposite 10 inch side

sin 68.9/16 = sinФ/10

Ф = 35.7°

then is added 35.7 and 68.9 and subtracted the sum from 180° to get the measure of the third angle, 75.4°

i used law of sines again to find the measure of the third side

sin 68.9/16 = sin 75.4/x

x = 16.59

I need help on this question I’m confused
AysviL [449]

Answer:

FG = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying mid-segment theorem in the given trapezoid,

Segment joining midpoints of the nonparallel sides is parallel and measure the half of the sum of parallel sides.

FG = \frac{1}{2}[UV+TW]

(7x - 4) = \frac{1}{2}[(6x-6)+38]

2(7x - 4) = 6x + 32

14x - 8 = 6x + 32

14x - 6x = 32 + 8

8x = 40

x = 5

Therefore, FG = (7x - 4)

                        = 7(5) - 4

                        = 31

the volume of a solid triangular prism is 726 cubic centimeters. its height is 12 centimeters and its bases are congruent right
aivan3 [116]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the prism is given by the formula ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the triangular base, and h is the height.

Filling in the given information, we find the area of the triangular base to be ...

  726 cm³ = B(12 cm)

  B = 726 cm³/(12 cm) = 60.5 cm²

The area of an isosceles right triangle is half the area of a square with the same side lengths:

  B = 1/2s²

  60.5 = 1/2s²

  s = √(2(60.5)) = √121 = 11

The length of each of the equal sides of the base is 11 cm.
