The equation is part/whole = percent/100. Percent is unknown so it will be a variable, and it was marked down by 7 dollars so subtract : 25-7=18 now let's see our equation : 18/25 = x/100 Now solve : make sure 18/25 is simplified. (It all ready is) Now trade off : 18•100=25•x=1,800=25x (Divide by 25 on both sides and get) : 72=x. It was 72% off. Hoped I helped!

Describe the possible side lengths of the 3rd side of the triangle given the lengths of the 2 other sides?
Sindrei [870]
Heya !

Using a theoram about triangles ,

Given a triangle ∆ABC, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of the triangle is greater than the length of the third side ,

Also , the length of third side always greater than absolute difference of the other two sides ,

Let the third side be x ,

So , x < 9 + 8 and x > 9 - 8
x < 17 and x > 1

Hence , x ∈ [ 2 , 17 ] inch.

Above case is true for any triangle , be it scalene , Isosceles , Right-angled ...

As , for Isosceles , the third side can be 8 or 9 inches ,
For scalene , all values in the above range satusfies ,

For right angled triangle , we have 2 cases ,

Case 1 : Third side is the hypotenuse
Then , x = √(9²+8²) = √145 = 12.0415 inch.

Case 2 : Third side is not the hypotenuse
Then , x = √(9²-8²) = √17 = 4.1231 inch.

Hope it helps you ! :)

Mrs. McDonnell is making 25 paper cones to fill
viktelen [127]

Answer:

(A)29 cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of the Cone =4 Inches

Height of the Cone =7 Inches

Volume of a Cone =\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

First, we determine the radius, r.

Radius=Diameter/2=4/2=2 Inches

Therefore:

Volume of one paper cone =\frac{1}{3}\pi *2^2*7

=29.32 cubic inch

=29 cubic inch (to the nearest cubic inch.)
