Change your percents to decimals, then multiply 100 by your 12% decimal, then multiply 79.74 by your 7.25% and you should get the answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question that uses the Pythagorean Theorem.
a = 35 feet
b = x which is the height of the tree.
c = 3*x + 1 so we are trying to find x. Substitute into a b and c
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
35^2 + x^2 = (3x + 1)^2
35^2 + x^2 = 9x^2 + 6x + 1 Subtract x^2 from both sides.
35^2 = 8x^2 + 6x + 1 Subtract 35^2 from both sides.
0 = 8x^2 + 6x + 1 - 35^2
0 = 8x^2 + 6x - 1224
Does this factor?
(x + 12.75)(x - 12)
x - 12 = 0 is the only value that works.
x = 12
The tree is 12 feet high.
Note: I used the quadratic formula to solve this.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The square is in the circle, so the diameter is the diagonal line of the square. This divides the square into two right triangles.
Two sides of the right triangle equal 8. This qualifies it as a special right triangle. This triangle has two sides that = x (in this case 8) and the hypotenuse is
.
Substitute 8 in for x.
is the diameter, so we divide in half to get the radius =
