Let the total number of people surveyed by y.
we can solve this by using algebra.
to find the percentage of a number in terms of decimals or integers, just multiply the total by the percentage,
so with this question,
y x 40% = 20
shift x40% to the other side and turn it into /40%
y = 20 / 40%
change the percentage into decimals for easier calculations,
y = 20 / 0.4
y = 50
therefore, the answer to this is 50 people.
Answer:
rate of motorboat: b
rate of current: c
So the rate the boat travels upstream is $b - c$, and the rate it travels downstream is $b + c$
Step-by-step explanation:
d = rt
200 = (b - c)\cdot 5
200 = (b + c)\cdot 4
b - c = 40
b + c = 50
Adding these equations, we get:
2b = 90
b = 45
So
c = 50 - 45 = 5
<u>Therefore the rate of the boat is 45kph, and the rate of the current is 5kph</u>
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Ramiro is correct.
You cannot identify congruent triangles with only angles Angle-Angle-Angle is not one of the rules of congruence. They could have different sizes with the same angles which doesn't makes them congruent. They are similar though. Once you find the missing angles with the equations 62+39+C=180 and 39+79+X=180 the corresponding angles are congruent. So the triangles are not congruent, but are similar.
