Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

i did a little bit of guessing and checking but the answer is 200 because if you multiply 200 by 1 it comes out to 200 and if you multiply it by .26 it comes out to 52. you multiply by .26 because it was 26% and you need to move the decimal over 2 when changing to decimal form. to find it immediately, you multiply 200 by 1.26 and it comes out to be 252 (sorry about the sloppy handwriting)

Can someone please help me this this??

Answers:

bio = 258

sociology = 169

============================================================

Work Shown:

x = number of bio textbooks

y = number of sociology textbooks

x+y = 427 books sold total

y = x-89 since 89 less sociology textbooks were sold compared to bio

Apply substitution to get the following

x+y = 427

x+x-89 = 427 ... replace y with x-89

2x-89 = 427

2x = 427+89

2x = 516

x = 516/2

x = 258 bio textbooks were sold

y = x-89

y = 258-89

y = 169 sociology textbooks were sold

The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 24. If the length of one leg is 8, what is approximate length of the other l
Verdich [7]

Something that a right triangle is characterised by is the fact that we may use Pythagoras' theorem to find the length of any one of its sides, given that we know the length of the other two sides. Here, we know the length of the hypotenuse and one other side, therefor we can easily use the theorem to solve for the remaining side.

Now, Pythagoras' Theorem is defined as follows:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.

Given that we know that c = 24 and a = 8, we can find b by substituting c and a into the formula we defined above:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

24^2 = 8^2 + b^2 (Substitute c = 24 and a = 8)

b^2 = 24^2 - 8^2 (Subtract 8^2 from both sides)

b = √(24^2 - 8^2) (Take the square root of both sides)

b = √512 (Evaluate 24^2 - 8^2)

b = 16√2 (Simplify √512)

= 22.627 (to three decimal places)

I wasn't sure about whether by 'approximate length' you meant for the length to be rounded to a certain number of decimal places or whether you were meant to do more of an estimate based on your knowledge of surds and powers. If you need any more clarification however don't hesitate to comment below.
