40 percent of 90 is smaller than 1/2 of 80

40% of 90= 40*90/ 100= 36

1/2 of 80= 80/2= 40

So 1/2 of 80 is bigger

40%of 90 is 36 and 1/2 of 80 is 40 so 1/2 of 80 is bigger then 40% of 90

What is value of x? Enter your answer in the box.

marin [14]

Answer:

$x \ = \ 10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let point $D$ be the point where the straight line drawn from point $A$ meets the straight line $BC$ , it is evident that $\triangle ABD$ and $\triangle ACD$ is similar given that both triangles share the same angle, $\angle BAD \ = \ \angle DAC$ . Hence, the ratio of the sides of each triangle is the same. Specifically,

$\displaystyle{\frac{x+4}{8} \ = \ \frac{2x+1}{12}}$ .

Performing cross multiplication yields

$12\left(x+4\right) \ = \ 8\left(2x+1\right) \\ \\ \rule{0.15cm}{0cm}12x+48 \ = \ 16x+8 \\ \\ \rule{1.1cm}{0cm} 4x \ = \ 40 \\ \\ \rule{1.3cm}{0cm} x \ = \ 10$ .

During a scuba dive, Lainey descended to a point 29 feet below the ocean surface. She continued her descent at a rate of 29 feet

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Her initial position was:

-29ft

Where we use the minus sign because this is below the ocean's surface.

Now we also know that she keeps descending at a rate of -29ft per minute, then if she keeps descending for t minutes, her position will be:

P(x) = -29ft - 29ft/min*t

Now, we also know that she does not want to descend more than 81ft below the ocean's surface, then we have the inequality:

P(x) ≥ -81ft

-29ft - 29ft/min*t ≥ -81ft

Now let's isolate t in one side:

- 29ft/min*t ≥ -81ft + 29ft = -52 ft

- 29ft/min*t ≥-52 ft

t ≤ -52ft/(- 29ft/min) = 1.79 min

Then the maximum amount of time that she can keep descending is 1.79 minutes.
