Answer: He made $90 last week.

Assumption :

Let, Luis made $X last week.

He made $72 this week which is 80% of $X that he made last week

⇒ X * 80% = 72

⇒ X * 80/100 = 72

⇒ X = (72 * 100)/80

⇒ X = 90

Therefore, he made $90 last week.

To remember :

While solving this type of problems, be careful to understand which one of last time and current time is not given; just assume that one and input other conditions, the problem will be solved.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Algorithm

Start

Int n // To represent the number of array

Input n

Int countsearch = 0

float search

Float [] numbers // To represent an array of non decreasing number

// Input array elements but first Initialise a counter element

Int count = 0, digit

Do

// Check if element to be inserted is the first element

If(count == 0) Then

Input numbers[count]

Else

lbl: Input digit

If(digit > numbers[count-1]) then

numbers[count] = digit

Else

Output "Number must be greater than the previous number"

Goto lbl

Endif

Endif

count = count + 1

While(count<n)

count = 0

// Input element to count

input search

// Begin searching and counting

Do

if(numbers [count] == search)

countsearch = countsearch+1;

End if

While (count < n)

Output count

Program to illustrate the above

// Written in C++

// Comments are used for explanatory purpose

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

// Variable declaration

float [] numbers;

int n, count;

float num, searchdigit;

cout<<"Number of array elements: ";

cin>> n;

// Enter array element

for(int I = 0; I<n;I++)

{

if(I == 0)

{

cin>>numbers [0]

}

else

{

lbl: cin>>num;

if(num >= numbers [I])

{

numbers [I] = num;

}

else

{

goto lbl;

}

}

// Search for a particular number

int search;

cin>>searchdigit;

for(int I = 0; I<n; I++)

{

if(numbers[I] == searchdigit

search++

}

}

// Print result

cout<<search;

return 0;

}

How do you find the Slope of a line?
UNO [17]

You find the slope of the line by using the formula \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} where x1 and y1 is the first point, and x2 and y2 are the second point.

DOES ANYONE KNOW THE ANSWERS TO THESE PROBLEM, PLZ HELP!
Virty [35]

Answer:

Q.1.

Sum of angles of a triangle = 180°

∠A + ∠B + ∠c = 180

(3x - 9) + (4x + 15) + 90 = 180

3x - 9 + 4x + 15 + 90 = 180

7x + 96 = 180

7x = 84

x = 12

∠A = 3x - 9 = 3(12) - 9 = 36 - 9 = 27°

∠B = 4x + 15 = 4(12) + 15 = 48 + 15 = 63°

∠A = 27°

∠B = 63°

Q.2.

using \ pythagoras \ theorem \\x^2 = 7^2 + (7\sqrt{3} )^{2} = 49  + 49(3) = 196\\x = \sqrt{196}  = 14

sin y = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{7\sqrt{3} }{14}   = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} \\\\y = sin^{-1} (\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} ) = 60

x = 14

y = 60°
