Answer:

= 200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Length and breadth is in the ratio 2:3

Then, let length = 2x and breadth = 3x

Area of rectangle = l×b = 2x×3x = 6

Now if breadth is increased by 50% ,

our new breadth will be = 3x + 50%(3x)

                                       = 4.5x

And length is increased by same number of units, length = 2x+ 2x = 4x

New area = l×b = 4.5x × 4x

                        = 18

Percentage change in area = ×1000

                                           = ×100

                                           = 200%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L & B be the original length & width of the rectangle then its area is

A0=LB

Now, the length & width both are increased by 50 % then new length & width become 1.5L & 1.5B then new area of rectangle

A1=1.5L×1.5B=2.25LB

Now, the percentage increase in the area of rectangle

=A1−A0A0×100 %

=2.25LB−LBLB×100 %

=125 %

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

x = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle is 180°

Subtract the sum of the 2 given angles from 180 for x

x = 180° - (75 + 50)° = 180° - 125° = 55°

Is my answer correct?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The short answer is: yes, the answer to "How do you do?" is "How do you do?" It is also acceptable to reply "I'm fine, and you?" and similar variations. However -- and this is important to the etiquette side of things and not so much the language side -- "how do you do?" is actually not a question!

Esme buys jacketsfor 500 each and prices them for 700 each.If the selling price is reduced by 20%. how much profitdoes Esme make
Blababa [14]

Answer:

($) 60 is the profit per item when the selling price is reduced by 20%

Step-by-step explanation: 20% of 700 is 140.

The original profit is 700 - 500 = 200. The selling price is 140 less, Subtract 140 from 200. That leaves a profit of 60. (Not necessarily dollars, as the currency was not given in the question.)
