Answer: 84 people

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, 240 people are going to a charity event and 3/5 of the guests have ordered chicken for their meals. This means (3/5 × 240) = 144 people ordered chicken. Since 144 people have ordered, the number of remain people left will be:

= 240 - 144

= 96 people.

Out of the remaining guests which is 96, 12.5% have ordered gluten free meals. This means (12.5% × 96) = 12 ordered gluten free meals.

The people who haven't ordered their meals yet will be:

= 96 - 12

= 84 people.

What is the value of x in the diagram?
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

here 50 is hypotenuse as it is opposite of 90 degree.

x and x + 10 are the two other smaller sides of a right angled triangle respectively.

using pythagoras theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + (x + 10)^2 = 50^2

x^2 + x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500

2x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500

2x^2 + 20x + 100 - 2500 = 0

2x^2 + 20x - 2400 = 0

2(x^2 + 10x - 1200) = 0

x^2 + 10x - 1200 = 0

x^2 + (40 - 30) - 1200 = 0

x^2 + 40x - 30x - 1200 = 0

x(x + 40) - 30(x + 40x) = 0

(x + 40)(x - 30) = 0

either x + 40 = 0          OR x - 30 = 0

x = 0 - 40

x = -40

x - 30 = 0

x = 30

x = -40,30

since the length and distance is not measured in negative ur answer will be 30
