How do I solve this, it's not 10

Answer:

26.7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because 26.7/20 = (16+26.7)/32

When two triangles are similar, it means their sides are also proportional. The reason why it is not ten is because you need to add 10 to 16 to the large triangle as well, which no longer makes it proportional.

To solve, you create a formula.

(16+x)/32=x/20

Multiply both sides by 32 to get rid of the 32 in the left side.

16+x=32x/20

Multiply both sides by 20 to get rid of the 20 right side.

320+20x=32x

-20x on both sides to get all the variables on one side and all the nukbers on the other.

320=12x

Divide both sides by 12 to get x by itself

x=26.66667

The base of a solid right pyramid is a square with an
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Volume = ⅓n²(n-1) or ⅓(n³ - n²)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solid Shape: Right pyramid

Edge= n units

Height= n - 1 units

Required

Volume of the pyramid

The volume of a right pyramid is

Volume = ⅓Ah

Where A represents the area of the base

h represent the height of the pyramid

Since it has a square base;

The area is calculated as follows

Area, A = edge * edge

A = n * n

A = n²

Recall that

Volume = ⅓Ah

Substitute n² for A and n - 1 for h

The expression becomes

Volume = ⅓ * n² * (n - 1)

Volume = ⅓n²(n-1)

The expression can be solved further by opening the bracket

Volume = ⅓(n³ - n²)

alina1380 [7]
Picture it in your head
at -12 feet elevation (12 feet below ground level), the basement starts
62 feet from that level is the roof
so count 62 units up from -12 and get 50 feet above ground level (60-12=50)


answer is 50 feet above ground level

Lily has 6 dog toys that are red one sixth of all her gig toys are red. How many gig toys does lily have?
Semmy [17]
First, you multiply 6 by 6, since one-sixth of all her dog toys are red.

6×6=36.

Next, we put them in fraction form just to check.

\frac{6}{36}

Next, we simplify it to see if we get one-sixth.

After it's simplified we get   \frac{1}{6}

That means she has 36 dog toys.

Have a nice day! :)

A pair of flip flops is $30. How much will they cost after a 20% discount and 6.5% tax. Please show your work.
jeka94

Answer:

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of flip flops is $30. This is our starting amount.

The tax will be applied on the price the flip flops are bought for. This means we must apply the discount first.

The discount is 20%. Let's find what the flip flops were sold for.

If the discount is 20%, the flip flops were sold for 80% of their original price. Let's find 80% of 30.

80% of 30 = ?

0.80 • 30 = ?

= 24

The flip flops were sold for $24.

Now we have to apply a 6.5% tax. To find the amount of money added to the total, we need to find 6.5% of 24.

6.5% of 24 = ?

0.065 • 24 = ?

= 1.56

The tax was $1.56.

We need to add the tax to the discounted price.

1.56 + 24 = ?

= 25.56

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Hope this helps!
