20% of what amount is 8?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dovator [93]3 years ago
3 0

Divide 20 % by 100 to get its decimal form. 

Dividing 20 % by 100 equals 0.2.

Set up an equation as 0.2x = 8, 

which means 20 %of x equals 8.

Solve the equation by dividing each side by 0.2. 

Dividing 0.2 from each side results in  x = 40. Eight is 20 % of 40.

Find ordered pair that is solution for liner equation 4x - 5y=20
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

(0,-4) (5,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5y=20

First, we must put the equation into slope intercept form: y= mx+b

5y=4x-20=y=4/5x-4

The y intercept, by definition, is b. In this scenario, b is -4.

One ordered pair that works is (0,-4).

Also, we can find the ordered pair for the x intercept. By definition, the x intercept is the value of x when y equals zero. hence, we substitute 0 for y and then we can find an ordered pair that works and solve for x!:

  1. 0=4/5(x)-4= 4=4/5x
  2. 4x=20
  3. x=5

Therefore, (5,0) works as well!

A person can see the top of a building at an angle of 65°. The person is standing 50 ft away from
zhannawk [14.2K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (b)  112.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

For the given geometry, this becomes ...

  tan(65°) = (height above eye level)/(50 ft)

Then we have ...

  (height above eye level) = (50 ft)tan(65°) = 107.2 ft

Adding the height of eye level will give us the height of the building.

  building height = (eye level height) + (height above eye level)

  building height = (5 ft) + (107.2 ft)

  building height = 112.2 ft
