Answer:
35 is the 'is' and 40 is the 'of'
Step-by-step explanation:
is/of = %/100
35/40 = x/100
cross-multiply to get:
40x = 3500
x = 3500/40
x = 87.5
You are solving for the height. Use the formula:
c² - b² = a² in which c = hypotenuse
(13)² - (5)² = a²
Simplify
169 - 25 = a²
144 = a²
Isolate the a. Root both sides
√144 = √a²
a = √144
a = √(12 x 12)
a = 12
C) 12 feet is your answer

The answer is 4500 because 3 is less than 5 so we dont have to add one to five
Answer:
x= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
5 -2(x +5)= 3x -15
Expand:
5 -2x -2(5)= 3x -15
5 -2x -10= 3x -15
Simplify:
-2x -5= 3x -15
Bring x terms to 1 side, constant to the other:
3x +2x= 15 -5
5x= 10
Divide both sides by 5:
x= 10 ÷5
x= 2
