Answer:

7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

5/5 same as 1 is the overall mixture

so 5/5 - 2/5 of the cherry = 3/5

3/5 is left and she puts 1/4 lime

3/5 - 1/4 = 7/20

7/20 is the fraction left and it goes to grape

A commercial property purchased for 1.2 million is revalued at 995,000. Calculate the percentage decrease in the property’s valu
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

17%

Step-by-step explanation:

First: work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

First:

1,200,000 - 995,000 = 205,000

Then:

205,000 / 1,200,000 = 0.17

0.17 × 100% = 17%

One leg of a triangle is 7 inches. another leg measures 5 inches. if the perimeter of the triangle is 19 inches, find the length
Setler79 [48]

SOLUTION

A triangle has three sides. The sides of this triangle are 7 inches, 5inches and the unknown side.

Let the unknown side be x inches.

Perimeter is distance around a plane shape.

The perimeter of this triangle is 19,

\begin{gathered} \text{  That is the perimeter  1}9=7+5+x \\ 19\text{ = 12 }+x \\ x\text{ = 19 - 12 } \\ x\text{ = 7 inches } \end{gathered}

Therefore, the other side is 7 inches

Answer:

52.9 inches .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangular indentation has an area of 100 in.² and the base and height of this traingle are represented by expressions 3x and x+3 respectively . We need to find out the <u>perimeter </u>to the nearest tenth.

As we know that the area of triangle is ,

\rm\longrightarrow Area_{\triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}(base)(height)

Substituting the respective values,

\rm\longrightarrow 100\ =\dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)(3x)\\\\\rm\longrightarrow 2(100) = 3x(x+3)\\\\\rm\longrightarrow200 = 3x^2+9x\\\\\rm\longrightarrow 3x^2+9x-200=0

On using the <u>Quadratic</u><u> formula</u> , we have;

\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm\sqrt{9^2-4(3)(-200)}}{2(3)} \\\\\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm \sqrt{81+1200}}{6}\\\\\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm \sqrt{1281}}{6}

On simplifying above , we will get ,

\rm\longrightarrow x = 6.802,-9.802

Since sides can't be negative, therefore,

\rm\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{ x =6.802}}

Therefore ,

  • \rm\longrightarrow Base = 3x =3(6.802)in = 20.406\ in\\
  • \rm\longrightarrow Height = x +3=6.802+3=9.802\ in

Next let's find out the <u>hypotenuse </u>using Pythagoras theorem, as ;

\rm\longrightarrow h=\sqrt{ b^2+p^2}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h =\sqrt{ (20.406)^2+(9.802)^2}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h =\sqrt{416.40+96.07}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h = 22.63\ in

Now we may find perimeter as ,

\rm\longrightarrow P = p + b + h \\

\rm\longrightarrow P = (22.63 + 9.802 + 20.406)in.

\\\rm\longrightarrow P = 52.89 \ in.\\

\rm\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{ Perimeter = 52.9\ in .}}
