Answer:

x = 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC is a right angled triangle.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem:

{(10 - x)}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {5}^{2} \\ 100 - 20x +  {x}^{2}   =  {x}^{2}  + 25 \\ 100 - 20x = 25 \\  - 20x = 25 - 100 \\  - 20x =  - 75 \\ x =  \frac{ - 75}{ - 20}  \\   \:  \: \huge \red { \boxed{x = 3.75}}

20% of city employees ride the bus to work. This is up 10% from last year. What percent of employees rode the bus to work last y
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

18.18% of employees rode the bus to work last year

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

Last year, a proportion of x employees riding the bus was 100% = 1.

This year, 20% = 0.2 ride the bus, which is 100 + 10 = 110% = 1.1 of last year.

So

0.2 - 1.1

x - 1

1.1x = 0.2

x = \frac{0.2}{1.1}

x = 0.1818

0.1818*100 = 18.18%

18.18% of employees rode the bus to work last year

Roshan makes the table below to describe how to draw a ray diagram for a convex lens.
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The ray that goes parallel to the main axis after passing through the lens should also be parallel from the object to the lens

Step-by-step explanation:

To form the image of an object using a convex lens, ray diagrams are used. The following steps are followed when drawing ray diagrams.

1) Light rays are drawn from the object incidented on the lens and parallel to the principal axis. The incident light refracts (bends) through the lens and converges at the focal point at the other side of the lens.

2) Another incident light passes through the optical centre undeflected and intersect with the refracted ray at the other side of the lens.

Based on the above points, Roshan made an error by drawing the ray that goes parallel to the main axis and after passing through the lens made the same ray to be parallel from the object to the lens instead of refracting (bending) after passing through the lens.
