observe that the triangles KLM and MNL are similar. so,

(MN/c) = (c/b)

so, MN =12*12/27.73 = 5.19

If a math student Square both legs of a right triangle and the results were 441 and 400, what is the length of the hypotenuse of

kolezko [41]

Answer:

$29 \\$

Solution:

According to the Pythagorean Theorem, is that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sums of squares of the two legs in which if you take the square root of the sum you are going to get the actual length of the hypotenuse but the two legs are already squared so all you have to do now is sum them and take the square root of it.

$\sqrt{441 + 400} \\ \sqrt{841} \\ 29$

Let’s pretend that we want to give our employees in total a28% raise in the next two years, but we want to spread out aconsisten

Roman55 [17]

Solution

- The solution steps are given below:

$\begin{gathered} \text{ Let the original amount be X} \\ \\ \text{ If we want a 28\% raise over the next two years, then it means that the amount will be:} \\ X+\frac{28}{100}X=1.28X \\ \\ \text{ If we want to give them a consistent raise each year, we can compute the scenario as follows:} \\ \text{ Let the percentage be }y \\ \\ X+y\%\text{ of }X=\text{ Salary after first year} \\ \\ (X+y\%\text{ of }X)+y\%\text{ of }(X+y\%\text{ of }X)\text{ = Salary after second year.} \\ \\ \text{ But we already know that the salary after second year is }1.28X \\ \text{ Thus, we can say:} \\ (X+y\%\text{ of }X)+y\%\text{ of }(X+y\%\text{ of }X)=1.28X \\ \\ \text{ Simplifying, we have:} \\ X+\frac{yX}{100}+\frac{y}{100}(X+\frac{yX}{100})=1.28X \\ \\ \text{ Divide through by }X \\ 1+\frac{y}{100}+\frac{y}{100}(1+\frac{y}{100})=1.28 \\ \\ \text{ Subtract 1 from both sides and expand the brackets} \\ \frac{y}{100}+\frac{y}{100}+(\frac{y}{100})^2=1.28-1=0.28 \\ \\ \frac{2y}{100}+(\frac{y}{100})^2=0.28 \\ \\ \text{ Multiply both sides by }100^2 \\ 200y+y^2=2800 \\ \\ \text{ Rewrite, we have:} \\ y^2+200y-2800=0 \\ \\ Solving\text{ the equation using the Quadratic formula, we have that:} \\ y=\frac{-200\pm\sqrt{200^2-4(-2800)}(1)}{2(1)} \\ \\ y=-213.137\text{ or }13.137 \\ \\ \text{ Since the change in salary is an increase, thus, the rate }y\text{ has to be positive.} \\ \text{ Thus, } \\ y=13.137\approx13.14\% \\ \\ \end{gathered}$

Final Answer

y = 13.14%
