An outlet store had monthly sales of $73,000 and spent 8% of it on health insurance. How much was spent on health insurance?

1. We assume, that the number 73000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 73000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 73000=100%.

4. We know, that x is 8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=8%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 73000=100%

2) x=8%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

73000/x=100%/8%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 8% of 73000

73000/x=100/8

(73000/x)*x=(100/8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

73000=12.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.5) to get x

73000/12.5=x

5840=x

x=5840

now we have:

8% of 73000=5840

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.

d) by the cross product property, ab^2 = bc multiplied by ad

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

in the given triangle abc

angle a is 90° and segment ad is perpendicular to segment bc

we can see that

triangle(abc) and triangle(abd) are similar because they have common side and same angle (90 degree)

so, triangles(abc) and abd are similar

since, they are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

we get

now, we can cross multiply

and we get

so, this could be step to prove it
