Given:

Serenity picked 75% of the apples of a tree in her backyard.

She picked 30 apples.

To find:

The number of apples on the tree in the beginning.

Solution:

Let x be the number of apples on the tree in the beginning.

Serenity picked 75% of the apples of a tree in her backyard.

Number of apples picked = 75% of x

                                           = \dfrac{75}{100}x

                                           = \dfrac{3}{4}x

She picked 30 apples.

\dfrac{3}{4}x=30

Multiply both sides by 4.

3x=4\times 30

3x=120

Divide both sides by 3.

x=\dfrac{120}{3}

x=40

Therefore, the number of apples on the tree in the beginning is 40.

Which complex number does NOT fall within the shaded region in this graph?
avanturin [10]
In order to find which is the answer, we will go step-by-step. Numbers that are not followed by I are drawn on the Real Axis and the other ones are drawn on the Imaginary Axis. You go first on the Real Axis and then on the Imaginary Axis and intersect those 2 points. If a number does not have an imaginary or real part you can assume that is equal to 0. As you can notice the number that is not in the shaded area is <span>2 − I</span>
