Answer:

18.44%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Percentage who rode bus to work last year = x

Percentage who ride bus to work this year = 27.1%

Percentage who ride bus to work this year = [percentage who rode bus to work last year + 47% of percentage who rode bus to work last year]

Mathematically ;

27.1% = x + 47% of x

0.271 = x + (0.47x)

0.271 = x + 0.47x

0.271 = 1.47x

x = 0.271 / 1.47

x = 0.1843537

x = 0.1843537 * 100%

x = 18.435%

x = 18.44%

10. The perimeter of a regular nonagon is 162 inches. The apothem is 97.8 inches. Find the area.
Katen [24]

Answer:

The area of the regular nonagon is 7921.8 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometrically speaking, the area of a regular polygon is determined by following area formula:

A = \frac{p\cdot a}{2} (1)

Where:

A - Area of the regular polygon, in square inches.

p - Perimeter, in inches.

a - Apothem, in inches.

If we know that p = 162\,in and a = 97.8\,in, then the area of the regular nonagon is:

A = 7921.8\,in^{2}

The area of the regular nonagon is 7921.8 square inches.

What is x? Options: 81, 57, 143, 66.
jeyben [28]

Answer:

x = 103

Step-by-step explanation:

In my opinion, because x and 77 are the supplementary angles, so 180-77 = x or x+77=180. The answer should be 103......even though it's not in the options (I'm sorry).
