36% in decimal from it .36
172.80 + .36 = 173.16
So original price was 173.16

Answer:

$270

Step-by-step explanation:

So Big G gets a great deal on a sofa...$172.80...the original price has to be higher, right? He (? She?) got 36% off...This means that they DID NOT pay 36%, but they DID pay 64% (bc 36 + 64 = 100%)

SO, you need to change percents to decimals to work with them in an equation. Let p be the original price. Original price times 64% will equal the sale price.

.64p = 172.80

DIVIDE BY .64

p = 270

You can check it using the 36% ---

270 × .36 = 97.2

The discount is $97.20

270 - 97.20 = 172.80✅

The original price for Goran's sofa was $270.00

A 100-foot rope from the top of a tree house to the ground forms a 45∘ angle of elevation from the ground. How high is the top o

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The height of tree house is 70.71 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A 100-foot rope from the top of a tree house to the ground forms a 45∘ angle of elevation from the ground

Refer the attached figure

Length of rope AC = Hypotenuse =100 feet

The top of a tree house to the ground forms a 45∘ angle of elevation from the ground = $\angle ACB = 45^{\circ}$

We are supposed to find the height of tree house i.e.AB = Perpendicular

So, Using trigonometric ratio

$Sin \theta = \frac{perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\\Sin 45= \frac{AB}{AC}\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{AB}{100}\\100 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=AB\\70.71=AB$

Hence The height of tree house is 70.71 feet
