The original price of the shorts was $22.50. I used the calculator and started multiplying numbers by .80 (80%) until I multiplied 22.50 x .80 and it equaled 18. Basically you have to divide the percentage that the problem gives you, in this case 20, by 100 (20/100 = .20). Then find how much it lacks to have 100 (in this case it is 80), when you divide that by 100, you are left with .80. You then start to multiply that by numbers until you get your answer. I'm sure that there is a much simpler way to answer this math problem but this is the only way I can think right now of solving it. I hope this helps you!!

Xyz are in 3:3:6.what are the measures of the angles
Anni [7]
Answer:

Set up an equation equal to <span>180o</span>

Explanation:

<span>3x+3x+6x=180</span>

<span>12x=180</span>

<span>x=<span>18012</span>=15</span>

So, the measure of the angles are:

<span>3x=3×15=45</span>
<span>3x=3×15=45</span>
<span>6x=6×15=<span>90</span></span>

HI can you help me with this question
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

  42 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of sides FA and AB will be half the perimeter of the rectangle, or 14 cm. Since AB is 9 cm, that means FA is 5 cm.

EF is the difference between EF and FA, so is 11 cm -5 cm = 6 cm.

FC is the same 9 cm length as AB, so we have enough information about the trapezoid to use the area formula:

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

  A = (1/2)(9 cm +5 cm)(6 cm) = 42 cm^2

The area of the trapezium is 42 cm^2.

The American Water Works Association reports that the per capita water use in a single-family home is 74 gallons per day. Legacy
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Reject H0 since test statistic <-2.492

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the American Water Works Association reports that the per capita water use in a single-family home is 74 gallons per day.

n = 25

x bar = 69

s= 8.3

std error = s/sqrt n = \frac{8.3}{5} \\=1.66

H0:\bar x = 74

Ha: \bar x

(Left tailed test at 5% significance level)

a) Reject H0 if t\leq-2.492

b) Test statistic = mean difference/std error

= \frac{69-74}{1.66} \\=-3.012\\

=-3.01

df =24

c) Reject H0

Graph the inequality of x&lt;0
alina1380 [7]

The graph is shown below.

We use an open dot at zero because x is only less than 0,

it's not less than or equal to 0.

So we have an open dot at 0 going to the left.
