The number 321.8 is 34% of x. What is the value of x rounded to the nearest whole number?

Anni [7]

Answer:

946

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make an equation :

34% of x = 321.8

Covert 34% into decimal by dividing by 100 :

34 ÷ 100 = 0.34

Rewrite equation with decimal form :

0.34x = 321.8

Divide both sides by x to make x the subject :

x = 321.8 ÷0.34

x = 946.470588235

To the nearest whole number will be 946 as 4 rounds it down

So our final answer will be 946

Hope this helped and have a good day

A grocer stacks oranges in a four-sided pyramid that is 7 layers high. How many oranges are in the pile?

gayaneshka [121]

Short Answer D
P(1) = 1(1+1)(2*1 + 1)/6
P(1) = 1(2)(2 +1) / 6
P(1) = 1(2)(3)/6
P(1) = 1

P(2) = 2(2+1)(2*2 + 1) / 6
P(2) = 2(3)(5) / 6
P(2) = 5 So this formula is adding as it goes along. To Find the Total all we need do is use the formula to calculate P(1) to P(7)

P(7) = 7*(7 + 1)(2*7 + 1)/6
P(7) = 7 * 8 * 15 / 6
P(7) = 7 * 4 * 5
P(7) = 140 <<<< Answer

To divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment.
These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions.
The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.

<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional geometric shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles only.

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment can be defined as the part of a line in a geometric figure such as a triangle, circle, quadrilateral, etc., that is bounded by two (2) distinct points and it typically has a fixed length.

<h3>What is a perpendicular bisector?</h3>

A perpendicular bisector can be defined as a type of line that bisects (divides) a line segment exactly into two (2) halves and forms an angle of 90 degrees at the point of intersection.

In this scenario, we can reasonably infer that to divide the triangles into these regions, you should construct the <u>perpendicular bisector</u> of each segment. These perpendicular bisectors intersect and divide each triangle into three regions. The points in each region are those closest to the vertex in that <u>region</u>.
