I assume, that the number 120 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

If 120 is 100%, so we can write it down as 120=100%.

We know, that x is 25% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=25%.

Now we have two equations:

1) 120=100%

2) x=25%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

120/x=100%/25%

Solution for what is 25% of 120:

120/x=100/25 

(120/x)*x=(100/25)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x 

120=4*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (4) to get x 

120/4=x 

30=x 

x=30

The answer is: 25% of 120=30

This week, we are covering relationships that can be approximated by linear equations. For instance, y = 453x + 3768 represents

lana [24]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the data is given by :

x: 30, 30, 30, 50, 50, 50, 70,70, 70,90,90,90

y: 38, 43, 29, 32, 26, 33, 19, 27, 23, 14, 19, 21.

Where X represent the cost for scholarships in thousands of dollars and y represent the cost of life for an academic semester (The data comes from the web)

We can find the least-squares line appropriate for this data.

For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$

Where:

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}$

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}$

So we can find the sums like this:

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = 30+30+30+50+50+50+70+70+70+90+90+90=720$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =38+43+29+32+26+33+19+27+23+14+19+21=324$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =30^2+30^2+30^2+50^2+50^2+50^2+70^2+70^2+70^2+90^2+90^2+90^2=49200$

$\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =38^2+43^2+29^2+32^2+26^2+33^2+19^2+27^2+23^2+14^2+19^2+21^2=9540$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =30*38+30*43+30*29+50*32+50*26+50*33+70*19+70*27+70*23+90*14+90*19+90*21=17540$

With these we can find the sums:

$S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=49200-\frac{720^2}{12}=6000$

$S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=17540-\frac{720*324}{12}{12}=-1900$

And the slope would be:

$m=-\frac{1900}{6000}=-0.317$

Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:

$\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{720}{12}=60$

$\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{324}{12}=27$

And we can find the intercept using this:

$b=\bar y -m \bar x=27-(-0.317*60)=46.02$

So the line would be given by:

$y=-0.317 x +46.02$

We have an inverse linear relationship since the slope is negative between the variables of interest.

ANSWER FAST ITS URGENT

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

9) 6.3 units

11) n=6√2 and m=12,

10) m=6√3, n=6

12) 330.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The Pythagoras Theorem says that, the square of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the two shorter legs.

Let the missing side, which is the hypotenuse be x.

Then

${x}^{2} = {2}^{2} + {6}^{2}$

${x}^{2} = 4 + 36$

${x}^{2} = 40$

$x = \sqrt{40}$

$x = 6.3$

The missing side is 6.3 units to the nearest tenth.

2) This is an isosceles right triangle.

This implies that, the two legs are equal.

$n = 6 \sqrt{2}$

The hypotenuse can be found using Pythagoras Theorem.

${m}^{2} = {(6 \sqrt{2} )}^{2} + {(6 \sqrt{2} )}^{2}$

${m}^{2} = 36(4)$

$m = \sqrt{36 \times 4} = 6 \times 2 = 12$

3) The side lengths of 30°-60°-90° are in the ratio, 2x,x√3,x

From the diagram, the hypotenuse is 12, therefore the other two legs are

$n = \frac{1}{2} (12) = 6$

and

$m = 6 \sqrt{3}$

4) The height of the monument is 115 feet, the hypotenuse is 350.

By Pythagoras Theorem,

${x}^{2} + {115}^{2} = {350}^{2}$

${x}^{2} = {350}^{2} - {115}^{2}$

${x}^{2} = 109275$

$x = \sqrt{109275} = 330.6 ft$
