Warm-Up Abena invited 40 people to a party.
How many came if 25% of those invited didn't come?

25% of 40 is 10.

Think

25% 10

50% 20

75% 30

100% 40

So 30 came to the party.

30

Step-by-step explanation:

25% of forty is 10 so we minus 40 by 10 to see the remaining 75% which is our answer.

40 - 10 = 30

30 people came

it would be:

c.parallelogram.

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
