40 questions. You set up a proportion, mutiply 34 by a 100 and get 3400. Then you divide 3400 by 85 and you get ur answer. You could also try guessing by putting in random values you think are the whole number and multiplying them by 0.85. So if you guess 44 is the whole and try checking it by multiplying it by .85 and get a value thats higher than the value the percentage is equal to you try another smaller value. So if 44 doesn't work you can try 40. 40 times .85 is 34 so your answer of 40 questions is correct.
Answer:
Let the breadth is x, then the length is 3x.
<u>The area is:</u>
<u>The breadth is decreased by 2 m: </u>
<u>The length is increased by 4m: </u>
<u>The area is now:</u>
- (x - 2)(3x + 4) = 3x² - 1/3(3x²)
- 3x² + 4x - 6x - 8 = 2x²
- x² - 2x - 8 = 0
- x² - 2x + 1 = 9
- (x - 1)² = 3²
- x - 1 = 3
- x = 4
The breadth was 4 m and the length 12 m

A scale to plot data
It is hard to tell the difference between the choices. If they are the following:
- a starting point with equal intervals that follow
- a stopping point for the data that can fit on the graph
- a way to locate data
- a scale to plot data
Answer:
a). Nadia made a total of $825 last week in commission sales
b). The total amount Nadia in commission in 2011=$42,900
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Express the amount in commission she earns from her sales as follows;
C=S×r
where;
C=commission earned
S=total value of stock sales
r=commission rate
In our case;
C=unknown
S=$7,500
r=11%=11/100=0.11
replacing;
C=11% of 7,500
C=(11/100)×7,500
C=0.11×7,500=825
Nadia made a total of $825 last week in commission sales
b). To express the total amount she made in 2011, we derive the formula below;
Total amount (2011)=Average weekly commission×number of weeks in 2011
where;
Average weekly commission=$825
number of weeks in 2011=52
replacing;
Total amount (2011)=(825×52)=42,900
The total amount Nadia in commission in 2011=$42,900
