Answer:

option d

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

40% of x = 0.40x

Increased by 40% = 28

That is ,

           x + 0.40x = 28

               1.40x = 28

                   x = \frac{28}{1.40}\\

                  x = \frac{28 \times 100}{1.40 \times  100 } = \frac{28 \times 100}{140} =\frac{4 \times 100}{20} = 4 \times 5 = 20

Therefore, the number is 20

If ∠a = 90°, find the measures of ∠b, ∠c and ∠d.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

m∠b = 35°

m∠c = 145°

m∠ d = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find m∠b, we use Definition of Supplementary Angles:

180 - (90 + 55) = 35°

To find m∠c, we also use Definition of Supplementary Angles:

180 - 35 = 145°

To find m∠d, we use Vertical Angles Theorem:

m∠b = m∠d = 35°

Suppose you have 5 riders and 5 horses, and you want to pair them off so that every rider is assigned one horse (and no horse is
maw [93]

There are 120 ways in which 5  riders and 5 horses can be arranged.

We have,

5 riders and 5 horses,

Now,

We know that,

Now,

Using the arrangement formula of Permutation,

i.e.

The total number of ways ^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!},

So,

For n = 5,

And,

r = 5

As we have,

n = r,

So,

Now,

Using the above-mentioned formula of arrangement,

i.e.

The total number of ways ^nN_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!},

Now,

Substituting values,

We get,

^5N_5 = \frac{5!}{(5-5)!}

We get,

The total number of ways of arrangement = 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120,

So,

There are 120 ways to arrange horses for riders.

Hence we can say that there are 120 ways in which 5  riders and 5 horses can be arranged.
