Call the sum S. Then, you can use the definition of percentage to obtain an equation to find the value of S: 1) 28% = 28 / 100; 2) 28% of x = (28/100)x; 3) that is equal to $100.80 => (28/100)x = 100.8 => x = 100.8 * 100 / 28 => x = 360. You can verify that the 28% of 360 is 100.80: 360 * 28/100 = 100.80. <span>Then, the answer is $360.</span>

Two corresponding sides of similar triangles are 2 cm and 5 cm. What is the area of the second triangle if the area of the first
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

(1) Area of second triangle= 50 cm^2.

(2) Area of ΔABC=98 cm^2.

   and Area of ΔDFG=175 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>" For two similar triangles the ratio of sides is equal to the ratio of square of their areas".</em>

i.e. if a,b are the corresponding sides of two similar triangles and let A and B denote the area of two triangles then we have the relation as:

\dfrac{a^2}{b^2}=\dfrac{A}{B}

(1)

for the first question:

we have a=2, b=5.

A=8 cm^2.

Hence,

\dfrac{2^2}{5^2}=\dfrac{8}{B}\\\\\dfrac{4}{25}=\dfrac{8}{B}

B=50 cm^2.

Hence, the area of second triangle is 50 cm^2.

(2)

In second option we have:

a=6 and b=5.

A-B=77 cm^2.

A=77+B

\dfrac{6^2}{5^2}=\dfrac{A}{B}\\  \\\dfrac{36}{25}=\dfrac{77+B}{B}\\  \\36B=25\times77+25B\\\\36B-25B=25\times77\\\\11B=25\times77\\\\B=25\times7\\\\B=175

Hence area of second triangle i.e. ΔDFG is 175 cm^2.

and area of first triangle i.e. ΔABC=175-77=98 cm^2.

I WILL MAKE WHOEVER ANSWERS THIS CORRECTLY THE BRAINLIEST :D Rei is barricading a door to stop a horde of zombies. She stacks bo
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first, we need to find the weight of the table. We know that 8 boxes weighs a total of 240kg (since each box weights 30kg). Thus, we can conclude that the table weighs 70kg by doing 310-240=70.

Now, we can write our function. Let x equal the amount of boxes.

The table is a set weight, so that would be our constant.

Thus, we will have:

f(x)=30x+70

30x represents the weight each box of book adds to the total. One box equals 30kg, 2 boxes equal 60kg, etc.

The 70 represents the unchanging weight of the table.

In terms of W(x), it will be:

W(x)=30x+70

10 + 2(7 - 9x) = 5(2x - 12)<br><br><br>Full steps as well please
blagie [28]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

10 + 2(7 - 9x) = 5(2x - 12)

10 + 14 - 18x = 10x - 60

24 - 18x = 10x - 60

+60                 +60

-------------------------------------

84 - 18x = 10x

     +18x    +18x

-------------------------------------

84 = 28x

/28    /28

--------------------------------------

3 = x
