<u>Answer:</u>

<h2>52% were jelly beans!</h2>

<u>Explanation</u><u>:</u>

<em>Cross </em><em>multiply </em><em>the </em><em>following:</em>

<em>\frac{x}{100}  =  \frac{71.76}{138}</em>

<em>x </em><em>times </em><em>1</em><em>3</em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>3</em><em>8</em><em>x</em>

<em>100 </em><em>times </em><em>7</em><em>1</em><em>.</em><em>7</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>7</em><em>,</em><em>1</em><em>7</em><em>6</em>

<em>Divide </em><em>both </em><em>sides </em><em>by </em><em>1</em><em>3</em><em>8</em><em>:</em>

<em>\frac{138x}{138}  =  \frac{7176}{138}</em>

<h3><em>x </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>2</em><em>%</em></h3>

The right isosceles triangle shown is rotated about line k with the base forming perpendicular to k. The perimeter of the triang
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The new shape will be cone with a radius of 17 units, tilt height 24 and units of height k.

Step-by-step explanation:

The image related to the exercise is necessary, to be able to solve therefore the attached one.

We have the following information:

Perimeter of the triangle = 58 units

Hypotenuse = 24 units

We have that the other two sides are equal and have x units, therefore we have the following:

x + x + 24 = 58

2 * x = 58-24

2 * x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

Now the triangle rotates around line k , and then it will result in a cone, which is a three-dimensional shape.

Therefore, the new shape will be cone with a radius of 17 units, tilt height 24 and units of height k.
