You can use the pythagorean theorem.
Now lets write out what we know.
Shorter leg = x
Longer Leg = x + 7
Hypotenuse = x - 7
Now solve for x
x = 28
Since you know x = 28, which is the shorter leg, you can solve for the rest by just plugging in 28 where x is located. For instance, longer let is x + 7 so
28 + 7 = 35
Now lets write out what we know.
Shorter leg = x
Longer Leg = x + 7
Hypotenuse = x - 7
Now solve for x
x = 28
Since you know x = 28, which is the shorter leg, you can solve for the rest by just plugging in 28 where x is located. For instance, longer let is x + 7 so
28 + 7 = 35
Increasing 50 by x% can be written as:
.................(1)
Decreasing 70 by x % can be represented by the expression:
...........(2)
Now we are given in the question that if we increase 50 by x% and 70 by x%, then the two values are equal.
so equating (1) and (2) , we get
bringing 0.01x to the left side:
taking 50 to the right side, subtracting it from 70
dividing both sides by 0.02
Answer x=2000
