126,360 people is equal to 108% therefore ...

you should divide it by 108 to get 1% : 1,170

and then times by 100 to get 100% : 117000 people


Hope this helps and have a nice day!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

as it increased 8% so

100         100+8

x              126360

x = 126360x100/108

the number was 117000

Wich is a factor of x^2+ 5x-24?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

(x−3)(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's factor x2+5x−24

x2+5x−24

The middle number is 5 and the last number is -24.

Factoring means we want something like

(x+_)(x+_)

Which numbers go in the blanks?

We need two numbers that...

Add together to get 5

Multiply together to get -24

Can you think of the two numbers?

Try -3 and 8:

-3+8 = 5

-3*8 = -24

Fill in the blanks in

(x+_)(x+_)

with -3 and 8 to get...

(x-3)(x+8)

Answer:

(x−3)(x+8)

14. A right cone has a height of 14 in and a base diameter of 17 in.
Mars2501 [29]

Given:

The height of a right cone = 14 in

Base diameter = 17 in

To find:

The diagram of the cone and its lateral surface area.

Solution:

(a)

The diagram of a right cone with height 14 in and base diameter of 17 in is shown below.

Diagram is not to scale.

(b)

We know that lateral surface of the cone is

A=\pi rl

A=\pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}              ...(i)

Where, r is the base radius, h is vertical height and l is the slant height of the cone.

Base radius of the cone = \dfrac{\text{Base diameter}}{2}

r=\dfrac{17}{2}

r=8.5

Now,

Putting r=8.5, h=14 and π=3.14 in (i), we get

A=(3.14)(8.5)\sqrt{(8.5)^2+(14)^2}

A=26.69\sqrt{72.25+196}

A=26.69\sqrt{268.25}

A=437.1379

A\approx 437

Therefore, the lateral surface area of the cone is 437 sq. inches.
