mrs_skeptik [129]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

$960

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original amount be = x

Percentage increase is equal to = 12.5%

final amount = original amount + increase

final amount = x + 0.125x

final amount = 1.125x

final amount = 1080 = 1.125x

and then solve for x

x =  \frac{1080}{1.125}  \\  \\ x = 960

so in the end x is equal to $960

Solve the equation: 1080 = 1.25x

\Delta KLJ\sim\DeltaNPM (AAA) Corresponding angles are congruent.

Therefore, the sides of the triangles are proportional:

\dfrac{4x-4}{20}=\dfrac{30}{25}    cross multiply

25(4x-4)=(20)(30)    use distributive property

(25)(4x)+(25)(4)=600\\\\100x+100=600    subtract 100 from both sides

100x=500     divide both sides by 100

x=5

\Delta PQR\cong\Delta STU (SAS)

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to the corresponding sides and angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Therefore we have the equation:

3y-2=y+4\qquad|+2\\\\3y=y+6\qquad|-y\\\\2y=6\qquad|:2\\\\y=3

The perimeter of △PQR:

P=4+6+3y-2=8+3y

Substitute the value of y to the expression:

P=8+3(3)=8+9=17\ ft

A rectangular flower bed is five feet longer than it is wide. its area is eighty-four square feet.
777dan777 [17]
Lets say w is the width of the flower bed. We can make an equation to find the area.
The length of the of the flower bed is (w+5) and the width is w.
To find the area we need to multiply the length(w+5) by the width(w) and set it equal to 84,
(w+5)(w)=84
w^2 +5w=84
Using the quadratic equation you get the solutions of 7 and -12. Since 7 is positive it is our width. Our length is 7+5 or 12.

A warehouse worker ships 25 boxes each day. Every box contains 3 shipping labels. Inventory has 500 shipping labels. How many da
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: It will take 7 days to use the inventory of shipping labels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total boxes shipped by warehouse worker per day = 25

Every box contains 3 shipping labels.

Inventory has 500 shipping labels.

Then, the total number of boxes can be made =  (Total  shipping labels) ÷ (labels in each box)

500 ÷ 3  =166.67≈166

Number of days it will take to use the inventory of shipping labels=  (total number of boxes can be made)  ÷  (Total boxes shipped  per day)

= 166÷ 25=6.64≈7

Hence, it will take 7 days to use the inventory of shipping labels.
