You can work out the difference between the numbers by taking the smaller one away from the larger one:
70.20 - 65 = 5.20
Then you can divide the difference (5.20) by the original number (65) to get how many percent it is of 65 in decimal form:
5.20/65 = 0.08
Then you can times it by 100, to get the percentage:
0.08 * 100 = 8%
This means there was a 8% price increase in $65 to get to $70.20
Hope this helps! :)
8x +9 = 6x + 21 where x = number of chairs in each row
2x=12
x=6
sub back into original equation 8 x 6 + 9 =57 chairs
<em />Is it for your kitchen sink or bathroom sink?
The product is 60.
We start out with the information we have. This forms a right triangle, with one leg being 24, the other leg x, and the hypotenuse 30. Using the Pythagorean theorem we have
x²+24²=30²
x²+576=900
Subtract 576 from both sides:
x²+576-576 = 900-576
x²=324
Take the square root of each side:
√x²=√324
x=18
We know that the formula for the volume of a triangular prism is V=(1/2bh)H, where b is the base of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, and H is the height of the prism. Substituting our known information we have:
720=(1/2*18*24)y
720=216y
Divide both sides by 216:
720/216 = 216y/216
3 1/3 = y
This means the product of x and y would be:
18(3 1/3)
18(10/3)
180/3
60
