Answer:

35% of that number is 91.

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to first find 25% of what number equals 65.

65×100÷25 = 260

Then, if you use the same method again, 60% of 260 would be 156.

We know "that" number is 260, and all we need to do is find 35% of it.

35% of 260 = 91

Hope this helped :)

Complete question

To find $\sqrt{5}$ , Beau found $2^2 = 4$ and $3^2 = 9$ . He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, $\sqrt{5}$ , is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estimate for $\sqrt{5}$ , is $\frac{2 + 3}{2} = 2.5$ Is his estimate high or low? How do you know?

Answer:

The estimation is high because 5 is very close to 4 so $\sqrt{5}$ will also be very close to $\sqrt{4}$ which is lower than the estimate

In order to get a good estimate

The first step is to choose a number between 2 and 3 let say 2.8 , 2,85 , 2.9 and the square them

i.e

$2.1^2 = 4.41$

$2.2^2 = 4.84$

$2.3^2 = 5.29$

From here we can see that $\sqrt{5}$ lies between 2.2 and 2.3 but is closer to 2.2

So a good estimate for $\sqrt{5}$ is 2.2

A photography studio charges $50 that includes a sitting fee and 6 prints. Luigi increased his order to 11 prints and paid $65.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Sitting fee - 32$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations(let x represent the sitting fee)

x+6y=50

x+11y=65

You want to isolate the x variable - x+6y-6y=50-6y ; x = 50-6y

Input this into the 2nd equation: 50-6y+11y=65 ; 50+5y=65

Subtract 50 from both sides. 5y=15 (Divided 5y on both sides) ; y=3

Now that y = 3 input this into any equation I choose the 1st one.

x+6(3) = 50 ; x + 18 = 50 (Subtract 18 on both sides to get x)

x = 32

Prove: 32 + 6(3) = 50 ; 32+18 = 50 ; 50 = 50 True
