1)The price of a pair of boot was reduced from $80 to $60. By what percentage

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1) 25%

2) $17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.

20/80 = 0.25

0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)

2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)

To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.

87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54

The hypotenuese of an isosceles right triangle is 13 inches. The midpoints of its sides are connected to form an inscribed trian
Georgia [21]

Answer:

The Sum of the areas of theses triangles is 169/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 13 inches.

Therefore,

x^2+x^2=169\\2x^2=169\\x=\frac{13}{\sqrt{2} }

Then the area of isosceles right triangle will be: A=\frac{1}{2} x^2

Therefore the area is: A=\frac{169}{4}

It is given that sum of the area of these triangles if this process is continued infinitely.

We can find the sum of the area using infinite geometric series formula.

S=\frac{a}{1-r}

Substitute a=\frac{169}{4} \ and\ r=\frac{1}{4} in above formula.

S=\frac{\frac{169}{4}}{1-\frac{1}{4}}

S=\frac{\frac{169}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}}

S=\frac{169}{3}

Hence, the Sum of the areas of theses triangles is 169/3.

Please help!! How do I solve for x?
Mariana [72]

The line in the middle is half the length of the line on the outside. Multiply the middle line by 2 and set it equal to the outside line.

2(x-3) = x + 6

Simplify:

2x -6 p x + 6

Add 6 to both sides

2x = x + 12

Subtract x from both sides:

X = 12

The answer is B) 12

Find two positive consecutive odd integers whose products is 99.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

9,11

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x, x+2 (since consecutive odd integers have a difference of 2)

therefore;

x(x+2)= 99

x²+2x=99

I usually solve the sum like this,

we need to find the nearest square number ( number smaller than the number on the R.H.S)

here, it is 81, whose square root is 9. therefore the solution is 9

verification:

(9)²+2*9=99

81+18=99

99=99

hence, 9 is the solution. therefore the positive odd consecutive integers are  

x=9

x+2=9+2= 11

verification:

9*11=99

99=99

L.H.S=R.H.S
