On a right triangle, to find one missing side you can use this equation
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b are the sides next to the right angle, and c is the hypotenuse (side not connected to right angle).
You first need to find the length of the dotted line before finding x. This is because to be able to use the above formula, you have to know the length of two out of three of the sides.
To solve the length of the dotted line, note that it also makes a triangle with the 5 unit line and the 5 √5 unit line. You can plug these numbers into the formula.
(5)^2+b^2=(5 √5)^2
25+b^2=125
b^2=100
b=10
Now that you know the length of the dotted line is 10 units, you can now solve for x
(20)^2+(10)^2=x^2
400+100=x^2
500=x^2
x= √500, which equals 22.361
Answer:
3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/3 = 10/3
1 1/4 = 5/4
Remember when dividing by a fraction you can also multiply by its reciprocal meaning flip the numerator and denominator.
so
(3 1/3) / (1 1/4) = (10/3) / (5/4) = (10/3) x (4/5) which is the same as (3/10) x (5/4)
= (3 x 5) / (10 x 4) = 15 / 40
the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 5 so divide the numerator and denominator by 5
15 / 40 = 3/8
X = 15
Add 5 to each side
10 + 5 = 15
Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks who has taken fewer than 19 courses.
So first we look at how many are fewer than 19.
There are 4 that are fewer than 19: 12, 9, 5, 17
So.. 4/8 (8 is the total number of options)
To find the percentage you...
