Lets suppose his initial weight was 60 kilograms

A gain of 20% would make his new eight 60 + 20*60/100

= 60 + 12

= 72 kg

he lost 25% of this:-

= 72 - 25 * 72/100 = 54 kg

This = (54/60) * 100 = 90% of his beginning weight Answer

Which ordered pair will solve the equation 2 × 4 + x = y?

Bezzdna [24]

This answer uses NMF, which you can find out about on my profile:

Preliminary work:
Following the BIDMAS order of operations, we can calculate part of it already, and that's the 2•4, which equals 8.
Therefore, the equation now reads:
8+x = y

x = 5:
8+5 = 13
13 ≠ 16
13 ≠ y

x = 4:
8+4 = 12
12 = 12
12 = y

Therefore, the pair is (4, 12)

Y= 9x -9 y= 9 substitution method

Aneli [31]

You would plug in the y=9 into the first equation and then have the expression 9=9x-9
. After going through the first steps of solving an expression you would get 18=9x. X=2. Then you would plug in the x value into the first expression to get y=9.

Help me out the number inside the triangle is really throwing me off tbh

prisoha [69]

We are given an angle of 60° and a side of 15 cm.

We are given the opposite and is looking for the hypotenuse so we will use the sine ratio to find x.

sin = opp/hyp

hyp = 15 / sin 60

hyp = 17.32...

//

We can also use the tangent ratio to find the adjecent and then use pythagorean to find x.

tan = opp/adj

adj = 15 / tan 60

adj = 8.660.....

8.660....² + 15² = 300²

since the square root of 300 is an irrational number, we have to turn it into a mixed radical.

The answer would be the top one.
