If the amount she saved was $6 for 20%, then the formula for finding savings would be cost*percentage.
But if you want to find the original cost, then you play with the current formula until you get this. $6/20%. Have a good one :)
Answer:
Base = 32 cm
Height = 25 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle can be calculated as:
We are given that the base of triangle exceeds the height by 7 cm. This can be expressed in an equation form as:
Base = Height + 7
Lets use B to represent base and H to represent height
B = H + 7
The equation of area can be stated as:
This is a quadratic equation which can be solved using a quadratic equation as shown below:
Since the height cannot be negative, we'll consider the positive value only i.e height is equal to 25 cm.
Therefore, the length of base will be 25 + 7 = 32 cm.
Y = 4/5x + 30
4/5 because the slope is 4 up, 5 right. 30 is the y-int
If you sketch the man and the building on paper, you'll have a
right triangle. The right angle is the point where the wall of
the building meets the ground. The height of the building
is one leg of the triangle, the line on the ground from the
building to the man's feet is the other leg, and the line
from his feet to the top of the building is the hypotenuse.
We need to find the angle at his feet, between the hypotenuse
and the leg of the triangle.
Well, the side opposite the angle is the height of the building -- 350ft,
and the side adjacent to the angle is the distance from him to the
building -- 1,000 ft.
The tangent of the angle is (opposite) / (adjacent)
= (350 ft) / (1,000 ft) = 0.350 .
To find the angle, use a book, a slide rule, a Curta, or a calculator
to find the angle whose tangent is 0.350 .
tan⁻¹(0.350) = 19.29° . (rounded)
Division because if you divide the two functions together, you keep the 3 in the x term. If you add the two functions, your coefficient is 6. If you subtract, the x term is eliminated. If you multiply, you'll get 9x.
3 is smaller than 6 or 9 :)
