The selling price of an apartment dropped from 250,000 to 225,000. By What percent did the price drop?

Mathematics
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]3 years ago

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage decrease in price = \frac{decrease amount}{original amount} x 100%

Original amount = 250,000

New amount = 225,000

Decrease in amount = 250,000 - 225,000

                        = 25,000

So that;

Percentage decrease in price = \frac{25000}{250000} x 100%

                                           = 0.1 x 100%

Percentage decrease in price = 10%

The price of the apartment dropped by 10% of its original price.

Through: (-5, -5), slope=2/5
kakasveta [241]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It is the slope

b: It is the cut point with the y axis

The slope is: m = \frac {2} {5}

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = \frac {2} {5} x + b

We substitute the given point and find "b":

-5 = \frac {2} {5} (- 5) + b\\-5 = -2 + b\\-5 + 2 = b\\b = -3

Finally, the equation is:

y = \frac {2} {5} x-3

Answer:

y = \frac {2} {5} x-3

The hypotenuse of the right triangle is 5y inches long. The lengths of the legs are x + 8 and x + 3 inches. If the perimeter of
Zolol [24]

Answer: 35 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

hypotenuse = 5*y in

cathetus 1 = (x + 8) in

cathetus 2 = (x + 3) in

The perimeter of the triangle is 76 inches, then:

5*y + (x + 8) + (x + 3) = 76

5*y + 2*x + 13 = 76

We also know that the length of the hypotenuse minus the length of the shorter leg is 17 in.

The shorter leg is x + 3, then:

5*y - (x + 3) = 17

Then we have the equations:

5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76

5*y - (x + 3) = 17

With only these two we can solve the system, first we need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, i will isolate x in the second equation.

x = 5*y  - 3 - 17 = 5*y - 20

x = 5*y - 20

Now we can replace this in the other equation, we get:

5*y + 2*x + 11 = 76

5*y + 2*(5*y - 20) + 11 = 76

15*y - 40 + 13 = 76

15*y - 29 = 76

15*y = 76 + 29 = 105

and remember that the hypotenuse is equal to 5*y, then we want to get:

3*(5*y) = 105

5*y = 105/3 = 35

5*y = 35

Then te length of the hypotenuse is 35 inches.

A triangle has one angle that measures 23 degrees, one angle that measures 47 degrees, and one angle that measures 110 degrees.
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

B) Scalene Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

This must be a scalene triangle because:

If it were a right triangle, there would be a right angle so A is out

If it were an equilateral triangle, all 3 angles would be equal to each other so C is out

If it were an isosceles triangle, 2 angles would be equal to each other so D is out

A scalene triangle consists of angles that add up to 180 degrees, but none of them are equal to each other. Therefore B is right.
