First off, "whatever%" of "anything" is just (whatever/100) * anything
part A)
so... firm A got 11,000 invested, turned a profit of 24%, how much is 24% of 11000? well (24/100) * 11000
firm B got 14,000 invested, and returned 15% in profits, how much is 15% of 14000? (15/100) * 14000
part B)
for the amounts above, we get 2640 and 2100 respectively
so, the total profit "amount" is 2640 + 2100 or 4740
the total investement was 11000+14000 = 25000
if 25000 is the 100%, how much is 4740 in percentage?

solve for "x"
They purchased a total of 1 13/18 pounds.
Answer:
∠ACB = 28.5
Step-by-step explanation:
In triangle ABC,
angle CAB = x-3
angle ABC = 4X-3
It is also given that AB=CB
We know that if two sides of any triangle are equal then corresponding sides must also be equal.
Hence
angle ACB = angle CAB
angle ACB = x-3 {Given that angle CAB = x-3 }
We know that sum of all three angles of a triangle is 180 degree so let's add given angles
angle ACB + angle CAB + angle ABC = 180
(x-3) + (x-3) + (4x-3) = 180
x-3 + x-3 + 4x-3 = 180
6x-9 = 180
6x = 180+9
6x = 189
x = 189/9
x= 31.5
Now plug value of x into
angle ACB = x-3 = 31.5-3 = 28.5
Hence final answer is
∠ACB = 28.5
Answer:
A.2
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that |x|² = 13 and x = 3+bi:
(3+bi)² = 13
3² + b² = 13
9 + b² = 13
Subtract 9 from each side:
9 + b² - 9 = 13 - 9
b² = 4
Take the square root of each side:
√b² = √4
b = 2
