7a + 5a = 6a + 24
<span>6a = 24 </span>
<span>a = 4 </span>
<span>XZ = 6(4) + 24 </span>
<span>XZ = 48 </span>
Okay, so Sang is standing 20 yards away from one corner, and Jazmin is standing 99 yards away from the same corner. If this is a rectangle (I like visuals, so I'll use them to explain), then:
99ft
A ------------------------- B
| |
20 ft | |
| |
C -------------------------- D
The question is asking you to solve for the diagonal line between points C and B. If you imagine a line there, you actually have the rectangle split into two triangles. So if you have triangle ABC, side CB would be the longest line, or the hypotenuse. That means you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve the problem.
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
99^2 + 20^2 = C^2
9,801 + 400 = C^2
10,201 = C^2
Now you solve for the square root of 10,201 to get C.
sqr (10,201) = C
C = 101 yards
Each angle on a triangle would add up to 180 degrees. Since a ladder goes straight up, that angle would be 90 degrees. If you add that with the 39 degree angle, you'd get 129. Subtract that from 180 and you have your answer.
Answer:
The percentage increase in the cost of Boris car insurance cost is 249%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we want to calculate the percentage increase in the cost of car insurance paid by Boris
Mathematically, to calculate this percentage increase, we shall need to make use of a mathematical formula.
Mathematically, the percentage increase would be;
{(new value paid-old value paid)/old value paid} * 100%
From the question, we can identify that the old value paid is £256 while the new value paid is £894
Thus, the percentage increase would be ;
(894-256)/256 * 100% = 638/256 * 100 = 2.4921875 * 100 = 249.21875 which is 249% increase to the nearest whole percentage
