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 ?
<u>Use a mock/fake situation.</u> 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.
Answer: About 3.06
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use trigonometry functions to solve for AC. Let the ?, representing AC, be "x" in our mathematical work.
Since we have the hypotenuse and x is adjacent to the angle given, I am going to use cosine.
cos(θ) = 
cos(40) = 
0.766 ≈
3.06 ≈ x
x ≈ 3.06

does this make sense to you? Do you have any questions about raising numbers to a negative value?
