Step-by-step explanation:

Selling Price (SP) = Rs. 725

profit rate (P%) = 15 %

Now

Cost Price (CP)

$= \frac{sp \: \times 100}{100 + p\%} \\ = \frac{725 \times 100}{100 + 15} \\ = \frac{72500}{115} \\ = rs \: 630.42$

What is the estimate of 215% of 18.

Vsevolod [243]

215% of 18
You must change 215% into a decimal by multiplying by 100 which is 2.15
Then you multiply them
2.15×18=38.7
Then you estimate to the nearest whole number
38.7⇒39
You answer is 38.7
Your answer is 39 estimated

The leaning tower of Pisa currently "leans" at a 4 degree angle and has a vertical height of 55.86 meters. How tall was the lean

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

56 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

Let the leaning tower's be h meters tall, when it was originally built.

We can see from our attachment that the side with length 55.86 meters is hypotenuse and h is adjacent side for 4 degree angle.

Since we know that cosine relates the adjacent and hypotenuse of a right triangle.

$\text{Cos}=\frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

$\text{Cos (4)}=\frac{55.86}{h}$

$h=\frac{55.86}{\text{Cos (4)}}$

$h=\frac{55.86}{0.99756405026}$

$h=55.996\approx 56$

Therefore, the leaning tower was approximately 56 meters, when it was originally built.

Answer:

I should use at least 304 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin error (E) = t × sd/√n

E = 40

sd = 300

confidence level (C) = 98% = 0.98

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02 = 2%

t-value corresponding to 2% significance level and infinity degree of freedom is 2.326

n = (t×sd/E)^2 = (2.326×300/40)^2 = 17.445^2 = 304 (to the nearest integer)
