Answer:

2014 salary = 125 of 2013 salary

Therefore if 2013 salary is 100, 2014 salary is 125

x% of 125 = 100

125x/100= 100

x = 100*100/125

x = 80

His previous salary is 80% of his present salary

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on the important parts of the problem:

The present salary is 25% more than the previous salary.

previous = % of present ?

Use a mock/fake situation. Let' say the previous salary is $100.

100 = % of present

Present salary is $100 increased by 25%.

$100 X 1.25 = $125

100 = % of 125

Solve this in decimal form (convert it to a percentage later).

Let x be the percentage in decimal form.

100 = 125x

100/125 = x Isolate "x" by dividing by sides by 125

x = 0.80

Convert 0.80 to percentage by multiplying by 100.

0.80 X 100 = 80%

When comparing two things using percentage, 100% is the same. Less than 100% is less and more than 100% is more.

Since his previous salary was less than his present salary, this answer makes sense.

Therefore his previous salary was 80% of his present salary.

X2 2 ab ab to b The diagian K n shows rectangle. The shade Find x.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

x = 28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of link shaded regions = 84 cm²

Required:

The value of x (diameter of the semicircle/length of the rectangle)

Solution:

Diameter of the semicircle = 2r = x

Length of rectangle (L) = 2r = x

Radius of semicircle (r) = ½x

Width of rectangle (W) = radius of semicircle = ½x

Use 3.14 as π

Area of the link shaded regions = area of rectangle - area of semicircle

Thus:

Area of the link shaded regions = (L*W) - (½*πr²)

Plug in the values

84 = (x*½x) - (½*3.14*(½x)²)

84 = x²/2 - (1.57*x²/4)

84 = x²(½ - 1.57/4)

84 = x²(0.5 - 0.3925)

84 = x²(0.1075)

Divide both sides by 0.1075

84/0.1075 = x²

781.4 = x²

√781.4 = x

27.9535329 = x

x = 28 cm

Suppose a triangle has two sides of length 3and 4 and that the angle between these two sides is 60. What is the length of the th

tangare [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

A. √13

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make an educated guess and come to the right conclusion.

The triangle is nearly an equilateral triangle. A triangle with two sides 3 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 3. A triangle with two sides of 4 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 4.

So, the third side must be between 3 and 4. Here is an evaluation of the answer choices:

A -- between 3 and 4, the correct choice

B -- 3, too short

C -- 1.73, too short

D -- more than 4, too long

The question can be answered using your triangle solver app on your calculator, or using the Law of Cosines.

c = √(a^2 +b^2 -2ab·cos(C))

c = √(3^2 +4^2 -2·3·4·(1/2)) = √(9 +16 -12)

c = √13 . . . . . length of the side opposite the 60° angle

Answer this please!

Troyanec [42]

f(x) = 4x + 3

That's one-to-one, a linear function that will give a different f(x) for each different x.

For the inverse let's swap x and y and solve for y

x = 4y + 3

x - 3 = 4y

y = (x- 3)/4

That's the inverse,

Answer: (x- 3)/4, second choice

The domain and range of the inverse is all real numbers. It's two lines; I'll leave the graphing to you.
