Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find 'h'.

\sf a^2+b^2=c^2

For right triangles, where 'a' and 'b' are the two legs and 'c' is the hypotenuse.

Divide the base by 2 to find the base length of one of the right triangles. 32/2 = 16. Now apply the Pythagorean Theorem:

\sf 16^2+b^2=20^2

Simplify:

\sf 256+b^2=400

Subtract 256 to both sides:

\sf b^2=144

Take the square root of both sides:

\sf b = 12

So the height is 12cm. Apply the formula for the area of a triangle:

\sf A=\frac{1}{2}bh

\sf A=\frac{1}{2}(32)(12)

\sf A=192cm^2

➷  The formula you need for this is:

Final value = original value x multiplier^n

[n is the number of years]

First, we must calculate the multiplier

1 + (4/100) = 1.04

Substitute this into the equation:

Final = 240000 x 1.04^12

Solve:

Final = 384247.7325

Thus, your answer is option D.

On a snowy day 85% of the students of Wilson high school were present. If 572 of the students were present, how many students we
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

673

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so uh this is my way and the answer works so like yea teachers dont show like this but ii figured this works

okay so

85/100 = 572/?

so if you divide 85 by 85 its gonna equal 1 and 1 times 100 is gonna be 100

useing the same concept, it should be the same with 572 , but instead of divideing by 572, divide by 85.

basically 572/85

okay now thats gonna give you 6.72941176471 thats vasically 1% of the population.

so multiply 6.72941176471 * 100

so now you have

672.941176471 and you can round this to 673 kids.

and you know its right since 85% of 673 is 572.05 and you can sound to 572
