Answer:
The percentage increase in Spencer’s height is 125 %
Solution:
Initial height of spencer = 28 inches
Increased height of spencer = 5 feet 3 inches
= 5 feet + 3 inches
(5 feet = 5 ×12=60 inches)
= 60 + 3
So 33/2 is 11.5 and 11.5=23/2
Answer:
A. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Ooh, look! This triangle is a Pythagorean triple! Without even needing to use a formula, I can tell that you are correct and the answer is A. 15.
It's based off of a 3-4-5 right triangle, because 9-12-15 simplifies to that if you divide every term by 3. It's basically just a bigger version of a 3-4-5 triangle! Isn't math cool:)
Let the faculties be X and the number of students be Y.
X/Y = 17/3
3X= 17Y
X=17Y/3
Let that be equation 1
We also know that X+Y = 740. Let it be equation 2
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2
(17Y/3)+Y= 740
20Y/3 = 740
Y=111
Since the total is 740, then X equal 740-111 =629.
The number of faculties is 111 and the number of students is 629.
