"c" is the hypotenuse of the largest triangle, and "a" is that triangle's shortest side. Thus the ratio is
... (longest side)/(shortest side)
Since all the triangles in the figure are similar, to complete the proportion, you need to recognize the triangle that "a" is the longest side of, then find the shortest side of that triangle.
"a" is the longest side (hypotenuse) of the smallest triangle. The shortest side of that triangle is "r". So, your proportion is ...
... c/a = a/r
The appropriate choice is the 2nd one, ...
... r
Answer:
The bottom one: The value is the difference of 42 and the sum of 20 and 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is what you get when you subtract 23 from 42. Using "the difference" means subtraction is involved and you expression is 42 - (minus) (20+3).
B. The sample is likely to represent one portion of the population.
This is impossible to say because it's random.
Step-by-step explanation:
markup amount = 45% of $27
=> 45/100 * $27
=> $12.15
Now,
selling price = $27 + $12.15 => $39.15
