so 33%(7+26) of all the employeeswent to the picnic.}

Ques:- The length of the base of a triangle is three times the height. The area of the triangle is 24 square inches. Find the length of the base of the triangle. (Area=1/2bh)
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:05:17:

length of the base=3 times height
b=3h;
h=b/3;
so, 1/2bh=24
1/2b(b/3)=24
(b^2)/6=24
b^2=144
b=12

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:01:21:

let t = total no of students.. then
students who passed one or both subjects,
n(e U h) = n(e) + n(h) – n(e intersection h)
=> t = 0.8t + 0.7t – 144
=> t = 1.5t – 144
students who failed both subjects is 10% i.e. 0.1t
=>t-n(e U h) = 0.1t,
=>t -(1.5t – 144) = 0.1t
=>t- 1.5t- 0.1t = -144
=> -0.6t = -144
=>t = 240
