Using the formula a^2+b^2=c^2you can fill in the numbers so that a=height of mattress in inches,b=40 inches or distance from base of the bed and c=48 or length of the ramp. a^2+40^2=48^2a^2+1600=2304
So then it becomes2304-1600=a^2704=a^2 26.5+=aSo, The top of the mattress(after rounding) is 26.5 inches off the ground.

Which percentage of weight was lost if a patient weighed 102 kg and is currently 96 kg?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to make a box like this:

║ ---------- ║------------ ║     label one side percent and the other amount

║   x%     ║    96 kg  ║

║ _    _   _║_____ _║   Now if the patient originally weighed 102 kg which

║100%    ║    120 kg ║    is 100% place the numbers in the bottom box.

║ _  _  _  ║ _   _   _ ║     and if the patient currently weighs 96 kg then let

 Percent     Amount       percentage of the weight lost be x. Now cross multiply.  You should get 100*96=120*x. Simplify that to get 9600=120x, now divide by 120 on both sides and you get 80 so x= 80. But the problem isn't done yet. Now you have to subtract 80% from 100% to find the weight lost, because 80% is the percentage of the current weight. after you have subtracted you get 20

20% of the original weight was lost.

garri49 [273]
Given:
square with sides measuring 7 cm.
3 triangles attached to three sides of the square. A line bisecting one triangle is measured at 4 cm.

Area of a square = s² = (7cm)² = 49 cm²

Area of a triangle = hb/2 = (4cm*7cm)/2 = 14 cm² 
Area of the 3 triangles = 14 cm² x 3 = 42 cm²

Total area of the logo = 49 cm² + 42 cm² = 91 cm²
