36 is 80% of what number

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If 36 is 80% ( a piece) of a number. that means the number must be higher than 36

Changing the English to math:

36 = 80% x n  (n being the number)
36= .8n  (changed the percent to a decimal by moving it back two places
36.8n
.8      .8    I divided both sides by .8 - when you divide a number by a decimal (less than one) the number will become larger.
The answer is 45

Find the solution set of this inequality|10x+20| ≤10

Answers

Answer:

solution is

[-3,-1]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

|10x+20|\leq 10

Firstly, we will find critical values

so, let's assume it is equal

|10x+20|= 10

now, we can break absolute sign

For |10x+20|= -(10x+20):

-(10x+20)= 10

we can solve for x

-10x-20= 10

Add both sides by 20

-10x-20+20= 10+20

-10x= 30

Divide both sides by -10

and we get

x=-3

For |10x+20|= (10x+20):

(10x+20)= 10

we can solve for x

10x+20= 10

Subtract both sides by 20

10x+20-20= 10-20

10x= -10

Divide both sides by 10

and we get

x=-1

so, critical values are

x=-3

x=-1

now, we can draw a number line and locate these values

and then we can check inequality on each intervals

For (-\infty,-3):

We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality

and we get

we can plug x=-5

|10* -5+20|\leq 10

|-50+20|\leq 10

30\leq 10

so, this is FALSE

For [-3,-1]:

We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality

and we get

we can plug x=-2

|10* -2+20|\leq 10

|-20+20|\leq 10

0\leq 10

so, this is TRUE

For (-1,\infty):

We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality

and we get

we can plug x=0

|10* 0+20|\leq 10

|0+20|\leq 10

20\leq 10

so, this is FALSE

so, solution is

[-3,-1]

What the area of this figure​

Answers

Let's first start by finding the area of the bigger rectangle.

Area = Length × Width

Area = (4) (3)

Area = 12 ft².

Now, let's find the area of the smaller rectangle.

Area = Length × Width

Area = (4) (1)

Area = 4 ft².

Finally, we need to add the areas of both of the figures to fo find the area of the whole figure.

12 ft² + 4 ft² = 18 ft².
