Lisa bought a suit on sale for 459. This price was 15% less than the original price. What was the original price?

1 answer:

7 0

If 459 is 15% less than the original, this means the original was 15% more than 459.

So we have to find 15% more of 459, and to do this, we have to:

Add 100 + 15 = 115
115/100 = 1.15
1.15 x 459 = 527.85

Hope this answers your question

A triangle has sides with lengths of 60 feet, 63 feet, and 87 feet. Is it a right triangle?

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to check if this triangle is a right triangle:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

Note that $a$ and $b$ are the legs of the triangle and $c$ is the hypotenuse:

Substitute the lengths of the sides into the equation:

$60^2+63^2=87^2$

$3600+3969=7569\\7569=7569$

Therefore this triangle is a right triangle.
