<span>In
2005, the price of a TV was $1599.00.
In 2002, the price of the same type of tv has dropped to $399.00
Let’s Calculate the percent of decrease.
First subtract 1599 dollars with 399 dollars to know how much did the price of
TV decreased.
=> 1 599 – 399 = 1 200 is the amount the decreased on TV’s price
=> 1 200 / 1599 = 0.75
=> 0.75 * 100% = 75%
Thus, the price of TV had been decreased to 25%, 75% of it were decreased</span>
Area: If you multiply 2 1/3 by 5 2/5, you get an answer of about: 12.6, which means the area is about: 12.6in. squared.
Perimeter: If you add 2 1/3+ 2 1/3+ 5 2/5+ 5 2/5 you get an answer of about: 15.47. So, the perimeter is about 15.47in.
Note: If you aren't allowed to use a calculator on this test, you should probably multiply the numbers yourself so you get show the work and get the answer in a fraction, which is probably what they want. If you are allowed to use calculators, all the information you need is right here.
Answer:
Raoul estimated the difference to be: 89
97.23 --> 97
8.3 --> 8
97-8= 89
The actual difference is: 88.93
97.23-8.3 = 88.93
Step-by-step explanation:
y is easy.
it is the Hypotenuse (baseline) of the small right-angled triangle created by the height (8) of the main triangle, the segment 6 of the main Hypotenuse and y.
so, Pythagoras :
y² = 8² + 6² = 64 + 36 = 100
y = 10
x is a bit more complex.
I think the easiest way to get it is to know that the height of a right-angled triangle to the Hypotenuse is the square root of the product of both segments of the Hypotenuse.
so, if we call the segments of the Hypotenuse a and b with a = 6, we have
x = a + b = 6 + b
height (8) = sqrt(a×b) = sqrt(6b)
therefore,
6b = height² = 8² = 64
b = 64/6 = 32/3 = 10 2/3 = 10.66666666...
so,
x = 6 + 10.66666... = 16.666666666...
round it to what is needed. e.g. 2 positions after the decimal point (hundredths) ? then it would be 10.67
