The answer would be 40.
Do 69-9 which gives you 60. And then 2/3 / 60 (divide 60 by 3) and you get 20. 20*2=40

A tree is supported by HELP! a wire anchored in the ground 9 feet from its base. the wire is 1 foot longer than the height that

olga55 [171]

For a right triangle with legs legnth a and b and hyptonuse c
a^2+b^2=c^2
9 feet from base, that's one leg
wire is hypotnuse, it's 1 more than height on tree
c=b+1

so
9^2+b^2=(b+1)^2
81+b^2=b^2+2b+1
minus b^2+1 from both sides
80=2b
divide both sides by 2
40=b
c=b+1
c=40+1
c=41
legnth of wire is 41ft

20 is what percent of 50?

djverab [1.8K]

We can rephrase the question as "What percent of 50 is 20?".
"What percent ..." is an unknown. We'll use the variable x to represent this unknown.

The word 'of' in mathematics can mean 'multiply'. Likewise the word 'is' can mean 'equal'.

Now we have the phrase "20 equals to x times 50".

Or in an equation: 20 = x * 50

Solve for x.

20 = x * 50
$\frac{20}{50}$ = x <-- Divide both sides by 50

Simplify the fraction.

$\frac{20}{50} = \frac{2}{5}$

Convert the fraction into a decimal.

$\frac{2}{5}$ = 0.4

Convert the decimal into a percent.

0.4 = 40%

So, 40% is the answer.
