Answer:

34 (explanation below)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert percent to decimal by moving the decimal in the number 40 over 2 places to the left and drop the sign.

.40

Now multiply 85 by .40 = 34

You can ALSO do in your head by thinking 10 percent (8.50) and adding it 4 times to find 40 percent. It's a lot faster!

A president and vice president for a sorority are chosen from ten people. How many different president/vice president combinatio
Arisa [49]

Answer:

There are 90 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have ten people and we have to chose 2 of those people to be the president and vice president. So first we can chose a president, we have 10 choices for president as there are 10 people.

Now we can chose vice president but this time we only have 9 choices because we already chose a president which gives us 9 other people to chose who the vice president is.

Now we need to multiply 10 and 9 together which gives us the total amount of possible combinations for president and vice president if there are 10 people to chose from.

10*9            multiplying

= 90.

Therefore there are 90 ways for a president and a vice president to be chosen for a sorority from ten people.

Which of the following measurements could be the side lengths of a right triangle? A. 66 in, 88 in, 110 in
MAXImum [283]
So the way to figure out the sides of a right triangle, is basically

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

Letter A is the only one that would work, because the first number squared (times itself), added to the second number squared, would equal the third number squared. This is a basic principle of the pythagorean theorem, which I can explain in more detail if you'd like. :)
