Answer : 50% can be written as .50, so to get 50% of 70, you just need to multiply 70 by .50.  This will give you 35. (The answer.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Any percent can be written as a decimal.  Move the decimal point two places to the right to convert a percent to a decimal.  For example, 25% to .25 and 50% to .50.

Answer:

The answer is 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

50% means half of a number.

For example, 50% of 20 is 10, because half of 20 is 10.

In this situation, the number is 70.

Do 70 divided by 2.

The answer is 35.

What is the value of a when we rewrite 15^x as a^x/6
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a = 11,390,625.

Step-by-step explanation:

a^x/6 =  (a^1/6)^x  

(a^1/6)^x = 15^x  so:

a^1/6 = 15

1/6 ln a = ln 15

ln a = 6 ln 15

ln a = 16.2483

a = 11390625.

Daniel [21]
Ans: 720

<span>This is equal to the number of different arrangements of three persons from a group of 10 persons </span>

Required number of ways = 10P3 = 720

OR can be solved in this way
select 3 runners (10C3 ways)
These 3 runners can be arranged in 3! ways
<span>Total = 10C3×3! = 720

The perimeter of a rectangle is 30.8 km and it’s diagonal length is 11 km. Find it’s length and width
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is 15.0325 km and width is 0.3765 km.

Explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 30.8 km

Length of diagonal of rectangle = 11 km

To find:

The length and width of rectangle=?

Solution:

Lets assume length of the rectangle = x km

And assume width of the rectangle = y km

Lets first create equation using given  perimeter

perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length +  width )

=> 30.8 km = 2 ( x + y )  

=>x + y = \frac{30.8}{2}

=> y = 15.4 – x             ------(1)

As diagonal and two sides of rectangle forms right angle triangle whose hypoteneus is diagonal ,  

=> length^2 + width^2 = diagonal^2

=> x^2 + y^2 = 11^2

=> x^2 + y^2 = 121

On substituting value of y from (1) in above equation we get

=> x^2 + (15.4-x)^2 = 121

=>x^2 + (15.4)^2 + x^2 – 2 x 15.4 \times x   = 121

=> 2x^2-30.8x + 237.16 -121  = 0

=> 2x^2-30.8x + 116.16 = 0

Solving above quadratic equation using quadratic formula

General form of quadratic equation is  

ax^2 +bx +c = 0

And quadratic formula for getting roots of quadratic equation is  

x= \frac{ -b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac)}}{2a}

As equation is 2x^2-30.8x + 116.16 = 0, in our case

a = 2 ,  b = -30.8 and c = 116.16

Calculating roots of the equation we get

x=\frac{ -(-30.8)\pm\sqrt{(-30.8)^2-4(2)( 11)} } {(2\times2)}

x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{(948.64-88)}}{4}

x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{860.64}}{4}

x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{860.64}}{4}

x=\frac{(30.8\pm29.33)}4

x=\frac{(30.8+29.33)}{4}

x=\frac{(30.8-29.33)}{4}

=> x = 15.0325 or x = 0.3675

As generally length is longer one ,  

So x = 1.0325

From equation (1) y = 15.4 – x = 0.3765

Hence length of the rectangle is 15.0325 km and width is 0.3765 km.
