Answer:
in triangle BCD
relationship between base and hypotenuse is given by cos angle
cos 71=b/h
cos71=BD/BC
cos71=67/x
x=67/cos71=205.8ft.
the length of BC to the nearest tenth of a foot is 206ft.
Hello there! Given there are 70 employees after downsizing by 30%, let x equal the number of employees prior to the layoffs:
70 would have to be 70% of x.
To find what 70 is 70% of, we can multiply by 100 because 100 is the base denominator:
70 • 100 = 7,000
Given this equation, we can now divide our result by 70 to get what the amount of employees before the layoffs is:
7,000 divided by 70 gives us 100.
x = 100
Now, we can plug our answer in to see if it makes sense.
Does 70/100 represent 70%?
Yes, it does. 70/100 reduces to 7/10, and by adding 3/10 to our 70%, we get the initial amount of employees.
Your final answer: There were 100 employees prior to the layoffs. If you have any extra questions, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
Reducing the solution to a problem in lowest terms
<em>If the rate is a constant, the relationship is proportional.</em> (The rate is the constant of porportionality.)
_____
For two or more points on the function curve, divide the dependent variable value by the independent one. If you get the same result in every case, the relationship is porportional.
___
<em>Note</em>
For some non-proportional relationships, it is possible to find points on the graph that will pass the above test. If you suspect the relationship is actually not one of proportionality, try more points. Check also to make sure that (0, 0) is on the curve.

Step-by-step explanation:
1. uncountable noun. You can use stuff to refer to things such as a substance, a collection of things, events, or ideas, or the contents of something in a general way without mentioning the thing itself by name.
