Answer:

$42,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First get 5% of $40000

So,

5% /100% x $40000

0.05 x $40000

$2000

Now to get the increase, add $2000 which is 5% of $40000 to $40000

$40000 + $2000

= $42,000

Therefore, 5% increase of $40000 is $42000

Answer:

New value =

40,000 + Percentage increase =

40,000 + (5% × 40,000) =

40,000 + 5% × 40,000 =

(1 + 5%) × 40,000 =

(100% + 5%) × 40,000 =

105% × 40,000 =

105 ÷ 100 × 40,000 =

105 × 40,000 ÷ 100 =

4,200,000 ÷ 100 =

so the answer would be 42,000

Triangle XYZ, X equals 27 cm, Y equals 79 cm and angle C equals 142Degrees. Find the length of Z, to the nearest centimeter.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Given:

In triangle XYZ, x = 27 cm, y = 79 cm and $\angle C=142^\circ$ .

To find:

The length of z.

Solution:

In triangle XYZ, using the Law of cosine, we get

$z^2=x^2+y^2-2xy\cos Z$

Putting the given values in the above formula, we get

$z^2=(27)^2+(79)^2-2(27)(79)\cos (142^\circ)$

$z^2=729+6241-4266(-0.788)$

$z^2=6970+3361.608$

$z^2=10331.608$

Taking square root on both sides.

$z=\pm \sqrt{10331.608}$

$z=\pm 101.6445178$

Approx the above value to the nearest number and side length cannot be negative. So,

$z\approx \pm 102\text{ cm}$

Therefore, the length of z is about 102 cm.

What are the factors of x2 – 100?

Komok [63]

Answer:

$(x+10)(x-10)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $x^{2} -100$

To Find : What are the factors of $x^{2} -100$

Solution:

$x^{2} -100$

Since 100 = $10^{2}$

$x^{2} -10^{2}$

using property : $a^{2} -b^{2} =(a+b)(a-b)$

$(x+10)(x-10)$

Thus the factors of $x^{2} -100$ are (x+10) and (x-10)
