Answer: x < $\frac{140}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{6}{5}x - 12 < 2 - \frac{3}{2}x$

$10(\frac{6}{5}x - 12) < 10(2 - \frac{3}{2}x)$

2(6)x - 10(12) < 10(2) - 5(3)x

12x - 120 < 20 - 15x

+15x +15x

27x - 120 < 20

+120 +120

27x < 140

$\frac{27x}{27} < \frac{140}{27}$

x < $\frac{140}{27}$

The trapezoid above is cut into two triangles with a black line. Find the area of the two triangles and add the areas together.

Leokris [45]

Answer:

$42$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle with base $b$ and height $h$ is given by $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$ . In the trapezoid, the two triangles share a height of 6, however one has a base of 6 and the other has a base of 8.

Area of smaller triangle (triangle on the left): $\frac{1}{2}\cdot 6 \cdot 6=18\:\mathrm{cm^2}$

Area of larger triangle (triangle on the right): $\frac{1}{2}\cdot 8 \cdot 6=24\:\mathrm{cm^2}$

Therefore, the sum of their areas are $18+24=\boxed{42\:\mathrm{cm^2}}$

15 people received an email and sent it to 3 different friends each, who in turn each sent it to 2 new people. What percent of t

pashok25 [27]

The original 15 people are 10% of the total number of people who received the mail.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of people who received mail = 15

Mail further sent to 3 more friends;

Number of people who received mail from 15 people = 15*3 = 45 people

Number of people who received mail from 45 people = 45*2 = 90 people

Total number of people = 15+45+90 = 150 people

Now,

Percent of original people = $\frac{Number\ of\ original\ people}{Total\ number\ of\ people}*100$

Percent of original people = $\frac{15}{150}*100=10\%$

The original 15 people are 10% of the total number of people who received the mail.
