Number of people that chose salad = 81
Percentage of people that chose salad over meat dish = 27%
Let us assume the number of people on the survey = x
Then
27% * x = 81
(27/100) * x = 81
27x = 81 * 100
27x = 8100
x = 8100/27
= 300
So a total of 300 people participated in the survey.I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. Based on this method you can always solve similar types of problems without requiring any kind of help from outside.

Answer: C) x = 13</h3>
====================================================
Work Shown:
We have a right triangle with legs a = 5 and b = 12. The hypotenuse is c = x which is unknown for now.
Use the pythagorean theorem to find x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = x^2
25 + 144 = x^2
169 = x^2
x^2 = 169
x = sqrt(169) .... apply the square root to both sides
x = 13
Answer:
700
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Daily evening newspapers in 2015 = 389
Percentage decrease from 2000 to 2015 = 46.5%
To find:
Number of newspapers in 2000 = ?
Solution:
Let the number of newspapers in 2000 = 
When 46.5% of the total newspapers in 2000 (
) is subtracted from the total newspapers in 2000 (
), it will be equal to the number of newspapers in 2015.
Making the equation as per the given statement:

Therefore, the answer is:
There were <em>727 </em>newspapers in 2000.
Answer:
5. 78300000
6. 25000
7. 0.000008345
8. 0.003
Step-by-step explanation:
when the exponent is negative, the decimal moves to the left
when the exponent is positive, the decimal moves to the right
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9) PQR Is an isosceles triangle
=> ∠PRQ = (180° - x)/2
PRS is an isosceles right triangle
=> ∠PRS = 45°
Have: ∠PRS + ∠PRQ = 115°
=> 
=> 180 - x = (115 - 45).2 = 140
<=> x = 180 - 140 = 40
10) ABD is an isosceles right triangle => ∠ABD = 45°
BCD is an equilateral triangle => ∠CBD = 60°
have: x = ∠ABD + ∠CBD = 45° + 60° = 105°
11) have: x = y (2)
PQT is an isosceles triangle => ∠PQT = 180 - 70.2 = 40
QTS is an isosceles triangle => ∠TQS = 180 -2x
QRS is an isosceles triangle => ∠RSQ = y
have: 40 + 180 - 2x + y = 180 => 2x - y = 40 (1)
(1)(2) => 
=> x + y = 80
12) EFJ Is an equilateral triangle => ∠FJE = 60
∠FJE is the outer angle of the triangle FHJ but FHJ is an isosceles triangle
=> 60 = 2.∠JHF => ∠JHF = 30°
∠JHF is the outer angle of the triangle FHG
=> 30° = 2x
<=> x = 15°
