20% of 57 is what number ? The proportion is ?

Elanso [62]

Answer:

11.4

20/100 = x/57

Step-by-step explanation:

It is perhaps simplest just to translate the given English sentence into a mathematical sentence.

... 20% ... ... of ... 57 ... is ... what number

... 20/100 ... × ... 57 .... = ... what number . . . . . . . . translation to math sentence

... 11.4 = what number . . . . . . . . carry out the multiplication

_____

If you're asked to write this as a proportion, you can write it like this:

$\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac{\text{what number}}{57}$

You can solve this proportion by multiplying by 57 (the denominator under "what number"). Doing so gives you the same arithmetic sentence as shown above.

What is the value of x? Please help! Thanks!

leonid [27]

Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.

42 50

------ = ----------

42+63 50+x

42 50

------ = ----------

105 50+x

Using cross products

42(50+x) = 50*(105)

2100+42x = 5250

Subtract 2100 from each side

2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100

42x =3150

Divide by 42

42x/42 = 3150/42

x = 75

[Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA
[Right Triangles Only] cosθ = adjacent over hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Angle θ = x

Adjacent Leg = 5.8

Hypotenuse = 7.3

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitute in variables [Cosine]: $\displaystyle cosx^\circ = \frac{5.8}{7.3}$
[Fraction] Divide: $\displaystyle cosx^\circ = 0.794521$
[Equality Property] Trig inverse: $\displaystyle x^\circ = cos^{-1}(0.794521)$
Evaluate trig inverse: $\displaystyle x = 37.39^\circ$
Round: $\displaystyle x \approx 37.4^\circ$

There are 347 students going on a field trip. Each bus holds 44 students. If each bus costs $95, is the total cost of the buses

Paul [167]

No, the total cost will be less than $1000.

There will be 7 buses with 44 students each and one bus with 39 students. So in there will be 8 buses in all.

8*$95=$760

Please help! Need help asap!

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles in the triangle in the question are 58 degrees and 54 degrees.

Three angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees

58 + 54 + x = 180

112 + x = 180

subtract 112 on both sides

x = 180 - 112 = 68 degrees

Only option A has a triangle that has the same angles, thus triangles are similar.
