Answer:
Second choice
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of the new triangle is in proportion to a scale of 3 to the original triangle. Since the sides are in proportions, the triangles are similar. Thus the angles are the same.
Hello! $800 was the past amount for rent and now it's $900. 900 - 800 is 100. that's a $100 difference. In order to find the percent increase in the rent, we can write and sovle a proportion. It would be set up as change/original = x/100, where change is difference between two numbers and original is the previous price. It would be set up like this:
100/800 = x/100
Let's crossmultiply the values. 100 * 100 is 10,000. 800 * x is 800x. That makes 10,000 = 800x. Now, divide each side by 800 to isolate the x. 800x/800 cancels out. 10,000/800 is 12.5 or 12.5%. Let's check this by multiplying by 112.5%. 800 * 112.5% (1.125) is 900. That's what we're looking for! There. x = 12.5%. The percent increase is 12.5%.
Answer:
x=15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles in the diagram are:
ABC and BDC
First we have to find the third side (hypotenuse) of BDC so that we can use it to find the value of x.
Hypotenuse is the largest side of a triangle which is usually in front of the right angle.
So in BDC
Applying Pythagoras theorem:
Solving for triangle ABC
Applying Pythagoras theorem
Hence,
x=15 cm
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: 70%
Discussion:
Goal = 5000
Amount raised = 3500
Percent of goal reached = ( 3500/5000) * 100 =
0.7 * 100 = 70
Thank you,
MrB
