1 - 8 = - 7
6 - 1 = 5

Let us use the Pythagorean theorem:

c^2 = (-7)^2 + 5^2 = 49 + 25 = 74 -> c = 8.6

A rocking horse has a weight limit of 60pounds. What percentage of the weight limit is 33 pounds? What percentage of the weight

bixtya [17]

Answer:

The percentage is 55% when weight limit is 33 pounds.

The percentage is 190% when weight limit is 114 pounds.

The 95% of the limit weighs 57 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight limit of rocking horse = 60 pounds.

We need to find:

a) What percentage of the weight limit is 33 pounds.

b)What percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.

c) What weight is 95% of the limit.

Now Solving for a we get;

Weight limit = 33 pounds

Now percentage of the weight limit can be calculated by dividing given weight limit with total weight limit and then multiplying by 100 we get;

framing in equation form we get;

percentage of the weight limit = $\frac{33}{60}\times100 = 55\%$

Hence The percentage is 55% when weight limit is 33 pounds.

Now Solving for b we get;

Weight limit = 114 pounds

Now percentage of the weight limit can be calculated by dividing given weight limit with total weight limit and then multiplying by 100 we get;

framing in equation form we get;

percentage of the weight limit = $\frac{114}{60}\times100 = 190\%$

Hence The percentage is 190% when weight limit is 114 pounds.

Now Solving for c we get;

Percentage Weight = 95%

Now Amount of weight limit can be calculated by multiplying Percentage weight limit with total weight limit and then Dividing by 100 we get;

framing in equation form we get;

percentage of the weight limit = $\frac{95}{100}\times60 = 57 \pounds$

Hence The 95% of the limit weighs 57 pounds.
