Answer:

$25\ pizzas$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

2 pizzas that had extra cheese represent 8% of the total of pizzas

so

by proportion

Find the number of total pizzas

$\frac{2}{8\%}=\frac{x}{100\%}\\ \\x=100*2/8\\ \\x=25\ pizzas$

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks along the x-axis from the spotlight toward the bui

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

0.675 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let height of shadow= y,CD=x

Height of man=2 m

Speed of man= $\frac{dx}{dt}=1. 8 m/s$

$\triangle ABD\sim\triangle ECD$

Therefore, $\frac{AB}{EC}=\frac{BD}{CD}$

$\frac{y}{2}=\frac{12}{x}$

$xy=24$

Differentiate w.r.t t

$x\frac{dy}{dt}+y\frac{dx}{dt}=0$

$x\frac{dy}{dt}=-y\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{y}{x}\frac{dx}{dt}$

When the man is 4 m from the building

Then, we have x=12-4=8 m

$\frac{dx}{dt}=1.8 m/s$

Substitute the values in above equation then, we get

$8y=24$

$y=\frac{24}{8}=3$

Substitute the values then we get

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{3}{8}\times 1.8=-0.675 m/s$

Hence, the length of his shadow on the building decreasing at the rate 0.675 m/s.

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

$0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

You are contrasting the numbers, so that means you are subtracting. When you subtract, the larger number goes on top..

7.47 - 6.75 = ?

So then you subtract and get $0.72.

I will make $0.72 more than I was at my current job.
