Answer:
E) 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is no ordinary problem. It actually requires you to solve two different problems in order to figure out the correct answer.
First, we must figure out what the hypotenuse of the triangle is. We have the two small sides (5 and 12), but don't have the larger side. To find this, we must use the Pythagorean theorem: 
Let's plug in our a and b values

Simplify


Square both sides

But sadly, we aren't done yet. Now we know the length of the whole hypotenuse side. Time to figure out what X is by a simple equation.

Simplify

Divide by 26
Answer is 1/2
Answer: 4.1 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that New York City is approximately 205 miles from Washington, D.C.
The distance that these cities will appear on a map with the scale 1 in: 50 miles will be represented by x.
Therefore, x:205 = 1:50
Cross multiply
x/205 = 1/50
50x = 205
x = 205/50
x = 4.1 inches
The answer is 4.1 inches
Answer:
.6n
Step-by-step explanation:
If we get 40 % off, we still have to pay 100-40 or 60%
The original price is n
We pay 60% of n
60%*n
.60*n
.6n
Answer:
It's b
it's kinda hard to explain but it ends up showing .7x.5 on the example, so your answer is B
