Hey there! I'm happy to help!
The percent in the problem is 60% (as it has a percent time).
The base is the number we start with, so it is 485.
The amount is the percent of the base. As a decimal, 60% is 0.6. So, we just multiply this by 485.
0.6×485=291
Therefore, the amount is 291.
AMOUNT: 291
BASE: 485
PERCENT: 60%
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
The perimeter of the p triangle = 38.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The perimeter of a triangle z be = 48 cm
The triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 0.8
To determine
What is the perimeter of the triangle after it is dilated by a scale factor of 0.8?
- As the scale factor < 1, it means the new perimeter will be reduced.
The new perimeter of the triangle p can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the original triangle z by 0.8
i.e.
Perimeter of triangle p = 48 × 0.8 = 38.4 cm
Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle p is = 38.4 cm
