Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 12² = 13², so
x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = 
= 5
Answer:
32%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Cost of Crockpot = $125
Coupon = $40
Coupon applies on items greater than $100
Required
Percent saved if coupon is applied.
If she applies coupon on the Crockpot, then she'll be saving $40.
Percent Savings = Amount Saved / Total Amount
Percent Savings = $40/$125
Percent Savings = 0.32
Convert to Percentage
Percent Savings = 0.32 * 100%
Percent Savings = 32%.
Hence, she'd save 32% if she applies the coupon of $40 on the Crockpot
5 days food for 150 students suggests there was 750 day rations
If there was 100 students this would last 750/100 = 7.5 days.
If it ran out after 4 days there were 750/4 = 187 students (187.5 not valid)
